Joanne — Jo, obviously — arrives on the scene in the pilot with a puppy in a BabyBjörn, thus endearing her to me immediately.
Lena Waithe’s “Twenties” on BET is historic — the first black butch lesbian to ever serve as the protagonist of a comedy in TV history! Carmen and Natalie got together to talk about the show, what’s next for black queer representation, and yes that really great sex scene.
Simone’s transness and need to transition is never doubted – it’s just not enough to rid her of all her problems.
This show forces straights to do what lesbians do all the time — talk about their deepest fears and feelings, endlessly.

Her sexuality, it seems, has been something of a personal and career liability, and part of the series will see her grappling to turn it into something empowering.

In the end, Chilling Adventures Of Sabrina delivers an exciting finale, but it isn’t enough to justify the disorder that precedes it, and it also feels like show repeating the same story it has done before.
Fortune Feimster’s long-overdue solo hour-long stand-up special is even gayer than you hoped it would be.
Join Carmen Phillips, Valerie Anne, Heather Hogan, and special guest Meg Jones Wall to talk about the triumph, heartbreak, gayness, and empowerment of one of our all-time favorite animated series.
What’s incredible about Sex Education, and especially this second season, is its ambition is to include everybody.
It’s tough competition on The CW, but Batwoman seems determined to become the gayest show on TV.
Maybe the seventh and last season will finally answer the question that’s been keeping me up at night: Are Grace and Frankie ever going to say they’re actually gay for each other or what?!
“It’s not a fair comparison because Are You The One? was entirely queer and went on all summer and sooo many people I know were watching. However, I will say no one on AYTO was as crushable as Sammie.”
