I texted Autostraddle Deputy Editor Carmen Phillips as soon as I saw the news and she said, “Here’s your official quote: LET’S FUCKING GO!!!!!!”
We’ve got a lesbian taxidermist in Run, a fish cop in Hightown, Janelle Monae in a rowboat and so much more.
So often, when you’re single, especially if you’ve been single for a long time, people will give you the same empty platitudes. You just haven’t met the right person yet, you’ll find love when you’re not looking for it, you have to love yourself before anyone else can love you, etc. But this show takes those sentiments and clicks a new lens into place over them.
Netflix’s BSC adaptation is, to my surprise and delight, a faithful recreation of Stoneybrook and its resident squad of tween entrepreneurs with essential 2020 updates to Ann M. Martin’s easter candy-colored world.
Natalie would like a word about Kat’s new love interest and Valerie has some Happily Ever After feelings as In the Dark barrels toward its season two finale.
And a healthy dose of women in top hats.
In the Season 4 finale of “The L Word,” we finally find out if Bette Porter knows how to drive a tractor!
There’s nothing gayer than falling in love with your best friend, which is why it’s endlessly bizarre and frustrating that we hardly ever see it happen on TV.
Also: Kat kicks off a new podcast on The Bold Type, ex drama on In The Dark, a trailer for the new season of Wynonna Earp, and lots of your faves at QFX Cloud Con.
The Legends face Fate herself, a slew of Encores, and some teary goodbyes in their final battle of Season Five.
“Lez Girls” is flying off the shelves and everybody has an opinion about who is a lesbian or not!
And we’re baaaaaaack! We’ve been gone for a while, but here’s a link to catch up on everything we covered and you maybe missed. Sending you lots of love for air conditioning, a fan, and some good TV to keep
It’s quintessential One Day at a Time: affirming in a way that few other shows could be, affirming in a way that few others strive to be.
Wynonna Earp is funny and smart and full of found family feels, which I suppose is how it led me to my smart, funny found family.
Let’s go have sex at the horse races!
I wanted “Homecoming” to be Janelle Monáe’s star vehicle and for her search to be as compelling as Julia Roberts’ during the first season, but sadly — it simply wasn’t.
The reason I didn’t like “Never Have I Ever” wasn’t because I didn’t feel seen. It’s because Mindy Kaling and I are clearly looking at the same world, but Kaling is expecting me to overlook all of its pain.
“Fire is hot, water is wet and ‘The Wire’ is the greatest television show of all time. Facts on facts on facts.”
“Killing Eve” is far from its cat-and-mouse beginnings. There’s the looming question of who’s in control. Villanelle and Eve are each other’s captors and captives. All at once.
