I decided to watch for the promised queer character, and for the Golden Retriever named Mr. Jones, and for Roselyn Sánchez who stands on the beach in a white suit for like half the show (I’m only a lesbian, after all!). What I discovered — much like the guests who visit actual Fantasy Island — has blown my mind grapes.
