I really could just watch Angie Harmon walk from room to room and talk for about 30 seconds.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26871122.post-6615329124449546242014-06-20T10:08:32.768-07:002014-06-20T10:08:32.768-07:00Perhap Ms. Snarker's recaps should be made int...Perhap Ms. Snarker's recaps should be made into real?

It's one thing to have genuine chemistry that we, the public, see with our eyeballs and enjoy turning into more with fan fic etc., but it's other when the actors et al. are consciously teasing the audience to up their ratings. (Excepting the sweep month lezzie kiss which is a time honored tradition.) I haven't even really conceptualized queer-baiting until recently--and I think probably, mostly because it actually is a relatively new thing--but I am already sick of it. If Xena was on today, I would probably be in a fit that the players weren't willing to admit what we all knew. [It wasn't 'til after the show ended that Lucy Lawless said, "Oh, yeah, they were lesbians," and the relationship became canon rather than subtext.] Anyway...I love your recaps, but I may be evolving on how I view subtext in the context of today's social landscape. I don't appreciate being straight-up used for ratings. If the show was actually awesome...yeah, I'd watch it, but the best thing about it is the amazing chemistry between Sasha and Angie, soooo, I think I'll pass. (But I'll still read your recaps. :-) xo)mayahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08211782714542791410noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26871122.post-5470886211113429822014-06-19T12:43:19.966-07:002014-06-19T12:43:19.966-07:00I'm a lesbian and I love the Ladies' Night...I'm a lesbian and I love the Ladies' Night promo. It' fun and sexy. Oh my goodness, how Angie does swing her hips and Sasha slays me with her eyes. <br /><br />I'll bet that TNT marketing people thought they were doing a favor for R&I's gay/lesbian/queer fans. After the on-line outrage, they'll never try that again.<br /><br />p.s. So happy you are still doing Rizzles recaps!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
