“Pose” and “Tales of the City” Remember the AIDS Epidemic in Very Different Ways

The question becomes, are the generational differences portrayed in Tales of the City actually generational differences? Is the argument actually between baby boomers and millennials, gen x-ers and gen z-ers? Or have we simply widened the conversation to include, or begin to include, voices that were already there?

Gentleman Jack’s Finale Was One of the Finest Hours in Lesbian Cinematic History

“Are You Still Talking” was everything I fell in love with and very obviously over-identify with about Anne Lister, framed and filmed inside the kind of aching, sweeping, racing, desperate, tender, pleading, triumphant storyline only the most epic romantic movies about straight people ever are.

“Tales of the City” Believes in the Power of Gay Love and LGBTQ Chosen Families

Tales of the City leans into some tropes, flips others on their head, makes plenty of jokes at its own expense, and — above all — believes in the power of LGBTQ people who come together to make their own family.

Vida’s Gay Vaquero Episode Breaks Emma’s Heart, Asks Hard Questions About Who’s Included in the Queer Community

“She’s Gotta Have It” Season 2 Finally Gives Nola Darling The Bright Light She Deserves

“If Nola Darling is one of the most famous, even if uncomfortable, black queer women in pop culture – what does it mean for us that nearly everything about her is so closely tied to the man who created her?”

“Lucifer” Season Four Has a (Tragically) Beautiful Bisexual Storyline

As someone who has fallen for oblivious girls, or helped girls I was crushing on find the perfect thing to say to the boy of their dreams, I found it all surprisingly grounded in reality considering it was about a demon from hell and the literal first woman on Earth.

Charmed’s Finale Betrays Its Magically Queer First Season

Charmed decided to get “serious” about its magic, and along the way it forgot everything that made the season campy fun, addictive, feminist, silly and yes – the greatness of centering queer women of color in the middle of all.

“Clink” Hopes to Step Into the Women’s Prison Drama Gap Left by “Wentworth” and “OITNB”

If life’s taught me anything, it’s that even the straightest-seeming woman can shuffle into a fictional prison meek as a lamb, and five seasons later is striding the corridors as Top Dog with a hot blonde on her arm.
