“I’m throwing them a few bones of facts and things to know. But I’m also calling them to a higher order. Luring them in with the pussy and then challenging them with postcolonial theory.”

The Superfriends gear up to fight the big bad, then dress up to celebrate Alex and Kelly’s wedding in the series finale of Supergirl.

Also in our weekly LGBTQ+ TV round-up, updates on The Chi, All American, iCarly, Motherland: Fort Salem, and The Republic of Sarah!

Here’s what we loved this year, and what pained us to see.

Wine, sex, violence, and music in the woods! The Yellowjackets go full Bacchanalia in the series’ trippy, psychosexual horror episode “Doomcoming.”

The Silence of the Lambs was right. Trans women and law enforcement are enemies. All it got wrong was the villain.

Alex and Kelly try to have their bachelorette party but Nyxly and her boytoy have other plans for the Superfriends.

“Imagine if all of our days were as productive as the people in The L Word. We would be cruising through life.”

In many ways Legend of Korra is more timely than ever because it forces us to examine our hero worship and the notion that one person will save us from destruction or that the simple removal of one villain will solve all of our problems.

What’s new with LGBTQ characters on HBO Max, Amazon, Hulu and Netflix this month? Let’s find out together!

I’m not sure what it says about me — or, more precisely perhaps, what it says about television — that this list isn’t full of characters that feel like representations of me or the people that I’m drawn to in real life.

Plus updates on Legacies and All American!

If this were completely honest, it would just be Buffy the Vampire Slayer listed ten times.

Ginny & Georgia has a very typical teenage dating story but made it queer, just for us.

Alex and Kelly welcome Esme into their lives while Kara and Lena try to get the hope totem before Nyxly does.

Plus updates on Nancy Drew and Legacies!

“Like many people of color and queer people, I’ve found ways to relate to a character that is nothing like me. As a poor, fat, Black queer woman I had seemingly nothing in common with a rich orphaned straight white man.”

Bly Manor is a well-written, beautifully acted, stunningly filmed horror series, with old ghosts and new ghosts and fun lore — and a lesbian love story for the ages

Black queer people are in this community. Trans queer people are in this community. And we deserve to get lost in a good time, too. We deserve fun, messy, sexy storylines. Just as much as any cis white woman over 50.

I ship Zendaya’s Rue and Hunter Schafer’s Jules like some people shipped Brittana.
