“Fantasy Island” Is a Magical Queer Journey (Not a Reality Show!)
I decided to watch for the promised queer character, and for the Golden Retriever named Mr. Jones, and for Roselyn Sánchez who stands on the beach in a white suit for like half the show (I’m only a lesbian, after all!).

“Feel Good” Season Two Confronts Trauma and Finds Messy Queer Romance
While Feel Good season two is certainly not lacking in laugh-out-loud moments or Mae Martin’s endless charm, it’s also a very heavy experience.
Lena Waithe’s “Master of None” Could’ve Settled for Being Black and Beautiful, But It Chose Complicated Instead

Four More Shots Please wants to broach serious issues relating to gender and sexuality but puts in no work to actually address them in any kind of meaningful way and opts for superficial declarations of feminism, instead.
