The L Word (2004)
★★★★

Fascinating to watch after years of hearing criticisms. It is far from perfect lesbian and trans representation and in the vacuum of the oughts but viewing it 2025 problematic incidents obviously come from a place of care and sincerity alongside the shows obvious intent to scandalise, shock and provoke the audience (an intent that the show makes very clear in the text, and which it argues is a good thing). Meanwhile, the show is able to explore and express truths which are not necessarily picked up in contemporary LGBT+ media. As a show it is fun to watch, mostly light quality entertainment which gets a little derailed at the end.
Sinners (2025)
★★★★★

I can’t remember the last time something new and mainstream was so refreshing, immersive and fascinating. Simply the hottest shit out.
