So Gay For TV

Oh, geez, I’m going to have to read this book now, aren’t I? A new series based on Kate Moennig and Leisha Hailey’s post-The L Word memoir “So Gay For You” is in the works at Amazon MGM Studios. Kate and Leisha will star and executive produce, and the series will be helmed by nonbinary creator Charlie Covell, the writer behind “The End of the F***ing World,” Kaos” and the upcoming “Life Is Strange” adaptation. Look, I already admitted to not reading their book yet. But I have always and continue to enjoy the dynamic between Kate and Leisha both onscreen and off.

Twenty-two years since the series premiered and there still aren’t queer female characters much more iconic than Shane and Alice. So, duh, I will be watching. Someone just hand me the Cliffs Notes. (That’s how we used to cheat, kids. By opening a skinnier book. Not by just typing a prompt so some datacenter plopped into some unwitting rural community to guzzle a couple million gallons of water to churn out stolen intellectual property for the enrichment of our tech billion overlords. Anyway, not sure how this turned into a rant againt AI, but as always, fuck AI. But yay for more TV featuring and about queer women.)
