Home Economics lesbian couple Denise and Sarah share a laugh.
TV Reviews

“Home Economics” Has a Lesbian Couple and Mostly Relatable Family Hijinks

It’s very obvious early on that there’s a queer person in the writers’ room when Denise suggests looking at photos of Cate Blanchett in suits as a way to cheer Sarah up.

Bombay Begums Centers the Queer South Asian Story I’ve Been Searching For

It’s moments like this that I’ve been desperately searching for in South Asian media these past few years. I want to know, I want to see where queer South Asians summon the courage to be themselves from, in a world where coming out is truly a global struggle.

Demi Lovato in Dancing With the Devil
TV Reviews

Demi Lovato’s New Doc “Dancing with the Devil” Will Break Your Heart

The fact that she’s still candidly discussing her ongoing issues is significant, because this story cannot be neatly packaged. By naming these things, she also normalizes them. For young fans, seeing Lovato’s intertwined and ongoing struggles presented so bluntly is remarkable.

TV Reviews

HBO Max’s Genera+ion Should Be Every Gay Middle Schooler’s New Obsession

If Euphoria is a teen show for teens, then HBO Max’s Genera+ion feels like a teen show for middle schoolers. And I think that’s great.

In The Owl House, Luz and Amity Capture the Singular Queer Experience of a Surprise First Crush

“The Lady and the Dale” Is a Fascinating Portrait of Trans Con Artist Elizabeth Carmichael

It’s as entertaining as any heist movie, as addictive as the best true crime, and authentic in a way few pieces of mainstream trans media have been before.

“Euphoria” Finally Gives Jules Agency In A Special Episode Co-Written By Hunter Schafer

“Chilling Adventures Of Sabrina”: The Chaos Ends But Not Without, Well, Chaos

Caught up in the inconsistencies in its own mythologies, the Netflix fantasy-thriller-teen drama-musical struggles to come to a compelling or coherent close.
