TV Reviews

Super Queer British Sitcom “Such Brave Girls” Is Discomfort Comedy at Its Finest

Queer chaos, self-destructive choices, and a downright wicked sense of humor give this show its bite.

Sports TV Reviews

“Candace Parker: Unapologetic” Shows That Behind Every GOAT Is a Love Story

“Unapologetic” may ultimately be a testament to a mother’s love for her children, but it takes the audience on a journey of her career that’s worth relishing.

TV Reviews

“A Murder at the End of the World” Is a Mystery Worthy of Our Grief

There are killers among us. They’re on our TVs. They’re running our governments. They’re in charge of the companies that control our lives. Will we change our narratives? Will we stop them?

Lena Headey Plays Queer in “Beacon 23” — But at What Cost?

I could spend the rest of my life watching Lena Headey play queer. But, at the end of the day, I’m not sure we can add this one to the “win” column.

“Upload” Season Three Gives Us A Deliciously Evil Queer Character

Karina might be a little… evil? But she’s also really hot. So you can see why Aleesha might be torn.

Apple TV+’s “The Buccaneers” Ruins Edith Wharton and Fails History

A trans girl lesbian in an Edith Wharton adaptation is like something out of my wildest dreams. Too bad this show is such a mediocre nightmare.

TV Reviews

Hulu’s “Black Cake” Delivers a Beautifully Complex Story of Family, Identity, and Secrets

As Black women, isn’t that what we want to be afforded? A chance to be messy and vulnerable instead of tidy and unbreakable?

TV Reviews

Neon’s Queer Puerto Rican Has Big Reggaeton Dreams, Its Impossible Not to Root for Her

Doesn’t “Jordana Brewster plays a lesbian drug lord who immediately turns the all women around her weak” sound like a perfect sentence, rolled off the tongue?

Netflix’s New Reality Competition Series “Surviving Paradise” Worked For Me — Eventually

The one thing that kept me hooked was the rivalry between nonbinary contestant Tabitha Sloane — the one openly queer contestant on the show — and Lellies Santiago.

Doom Patrol has a beautiful spectrum of queerness displayed across a strange, wonderful land; amidst time travel and sex ghosts and horsehead oracles and zombie butts.

Netflix’s Latest Teen Drama “Everything Now” Provides Very Queer and Honest Depiction of Anorexia

Everything Now finds an impressive balance: It doesn’t romanticize eating disorders, of course, but it also doesn’t sensationalize them.

Our Flag Means Death Season Two: Black Beard stands behind a wedding cake, with a variety of other pirates behind him.
TV Reviews

The Gay Pirates of “Our Flag Means Death” Are Back and Gayer Than Ever!

So far season two is darker and moodier than season one, but it’s also somehow funnier, more queer, and more vulnerable.

TV Reviews

“The Fall of the House of Usher” Is a Queer Gossamer Web of Edgar Allan Poe

The good news is, just about everyone is gay in The Fall of the House of Usher. The “bad” news is, well, this is a horror series. Hardly anyone escapes unscathed.

Gen V: Splitscreen of Girl Jordan and Boy Jordan
TV Reviews

The Boys Spinoff Gen V Asks, “What if Any Ol’ A**hole College Student Had Powers”

By immediately introducing gender-shifting Jordan and probably-pansexual Emma, Gen V is already much queerer than The Boys.

Throughout Its Four Seasons, “Sex Education” Showed Us a Better Way

Worse sex education and less adolescent autonomy has consequences — consequences no show can overcome. It’s admirable to watch this one try.
