Bringing this thread back. trans stuff: sadly, Batgirl was canceled before we got to see Ivory Aquino as Alysia Yeoh but! we still got to see the character in the Harley Quinn series voiced by Rain Valdez Jamie Clayton plays Pinhead in the new Hellraiser movie on Hulu Hunter Schafer is in the new Hunger Games, which I haven't seen Patti Harrison has been in a handful of stuff, playing cis characters tho afaik, which, good for her and last but not least... Yasmin Finney is in the new Doctor Who special!!! lesbian stuff: ...idk, a lot of shit got canceled before it really took off. I can't think of anything right now for some reason. Owl House was great, tho Asian stuff: Everything Everywhere All at Once and everything everyone did after American Born Chinese, Ms. Marvel, Joy Ride, Past Lives, Shang Chi, and dare i say it, Eternals Jessica Henwick in The Royal Hotel Natasha Liu Bordizzo in Ahsoka S1 Ke Huy Quan in Loki S2 Iman Vellani in The Marvels!
I still have some stuff to catch up on but I can pop in with a queer women round up in a few days Everyone should watch Nimona
i feel like this thread should be bumped more. tbh even i sometimes forget it exists. a lot of stuff that could go in here often gets posted elsewhere. for instance...
I am going back and rewatching ER because of The Pitt. ER had a disabled lesbian main character in fucking 1996. Crazy how much media revisionism conservatives have about how "woke" TV was pre-2010's. They act like represention in media started during the Obama administration.
My life kinda blew up, I’ll get it up this week I vividly remember this storyline. This, Rosie O’Donnell, and the Lifetime movie with Stockard Channing were super important when I was trying to figure myself out
Honestly ER was that show. Every time I see a poorly aged show from that era and we're like "it was the times" like maybe that's some of it, but ER was out here addressing these topics in an actual meaningful way. It holds up insanely well imo. Got so excited when I heard the Pitt was a thing because I feel like I'm just watching Dr. Carter in a new hospital where he's now older and getting tired of fighting the sucky system lol. ER rules
