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.
Is love a lie or the ultimate truth? The One balks at exploring that fascinating question and cops out with a cliched murder storyline.
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.
This business model is very f*cked up and sometimes it even works! Nichole and Sarah are also clearly constantly trying to slyly top one another.
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 first three episodes of the new season, Emily is still a chaotic, emotional, silly, passionate poet who is deeply in love with her sister-in-law and not afraid to show it.

The only thing less believable is how well behaved all these cats are around coffee mugs and pastries.
Fun and frustrating, derivative and surprising, Netflix’s new ballet show Tiny Pretty Things is undone by its paradoxes.
There’s nothing inherently more lesbian about watching two famous cishet Rachels playact queerness than watching a nonbinary drag queen kiss the shoulder of a trans woman drag queen.
The Wilds is sometimes cheesy, sometimes saccharine, all times dramatic as hell.
