## Spoilers

### Premise and characters

The series begins with Adam's coming out after his first sexual experience, and grows from there into a wider portrait of a young man working out who he is while managing a job, a passion for art, family, and friendships. Adam soon falls for Josh (Adam Mountain), the best friend of his brother Clayton, and the show follows new love, misunderstandings, and Adam's circle of friends and co-workers, including Gabe (Jake Hyde).<sup>[1](https://watch.here.tv/titles/single-out/)</sup> The tagline captures the arc: being single was easy; being out is hard.<sup>[9](https://queerfilmreviews.com/films/single-out/)</sup>

Adam's brother Clayton has his own storyline: he secretly gives massages to gay men to earn extra money and struggles to communicate with his girlfriend, and season 1 ends with Adam and Gabe sharing a kiss that opens a possible romance.<sup>[9](https://queerfilmreviews.com/films/single-out/)</sup><sup> • </sup><sup>[10](https://www.thegayreels.com/2024/02/single-out-season-1-australia-web-series.html?showComment=1737254555443)</sup> The cast also includes pansexual, non-binary, and bisexual characters among the ensemble.<sup>[9](https://queerfilmreviews.com/films/single-out/)</sup>

## Production

Lee Galea, the Australian filmmaker who had previously directed the film *Monster Pies*, conceived the project during the 2020 lockdowns. He got the first six episodes made with help from producers Giustino Della Vedova and Julie Strini and funding from [Kickstarter](https://www.edgepedia.org/kickstarter), making *Single, Out* an independent production rather than a studio commission. Reviews note that the series is not as polished as better-funded peers, but compensates with writing and performances.<sup>[6](https://itsastampede.com/2023/09/07/review-single-out-season-one-dvd/)</sup><sup> • </sup><sup>[11](https://kinolorber.com/film/single-out-season-1)</sup>

Alongside Galea, Jake Hyde and Will Hutchins are credited as writers on the series.<sup>[9](https://queerfilmreviews.com/films/single-out/)</sup>

## Reception

Reviewers describe the series as light, funny, and heartfelt. Entertainment Focus called it a coming-of-age story about Adam's desire to live as a young gay man without hiding parts of himself, "light and fluffy but with plenty of laughs and heart."<sup>[12](https://entertainment-focus.com/2023/09/01/single-out-review/)</sup> The review site It's A Stampede! gave season one four stars, judging that what the series lacks in production values it makes up for in talent, writing, and good will.<sup>[6](https://itsastampede.com/2023/09/07/review-single-out-season-one-dvd/)</sup> A fan review singled out the performances of Hutchins as Adam and Ryan Stewart as Marco and noted that the show treats coming out, assault, and autism with a light touch without mocking its subjects.<sup>[10](https://www.thegayreels.com/2024/02/single-out-season-1-australia-web-series.html?showComment=1737254555443)</sup> A more mixed take from the Queer Film Reviews database praised the range of queer identities represented while faulting the short episodes for crowding in too many side stories and jumping timelines.<sup>[9](https://queerfilmreviews.com/films/single-out/)</sup>

On aggregators, the series holds a 7.1 rating on IMDb from about 619 users and carries a TV-MA age rating in the United States.<sup>[7](https://www.justwatch.com/us/tv-show/single-out)</sup>
