While June is LGBTQ Pride Month, May should be retroactively named Good Lady TV Month. In the last week of May I watched the Season 2 finale of “Killing Eve,” the first two episodes of the new season of “Vida,” the entire second season of “Fleabag” and the continuation of the first season of “Gentleman Jack.”
I’ve honestly never felt more exhilarated by all the diverse female-led, female-told, stories on television. (All that, and I also went to see “Booksmart” last week – so it was really just Good Lady Stories, Period, Month.)
Truly, it has felt like a good, long, passionate kiss right smack dab on the lips. I won’t mention any of the other bases might have been passed. Not because a lady never tells, but because it’s nobody’s goddamn business what women do with their bodies. And we are more than capable of telling our own stories.
I’m absolutely loving Gentleman Jack. I don’t want it to be over
ReplyDeleteKilling Eve is always a favorite
Curious if you, DS, have watched any of Cinemax's Warrior. Lots of violence. A tiny bit of gay, and a long overdue series on Chinese history in CA. Apparently Vida's underused Marie-Elena Laas is joining the cast.
