Rizzoli & Isles (Sub)Text Recap: Burning Down a...
[B+K] The Season 2 Finale might have been the series’ gayest episode yet - not because of eyesex (which there was, but not plenty), love declarations between the leading ladies (which were surely missed), or sleep-overs (which, retrospectively seem to have been a season one exclusive thing), but because Rizzoli & Isles dared go, where no TV Show has ever gone before (and where I think...

Mentioning Rachel Maddow in a statement of purpose...
[K] …. for a university-related application. That’s a good thing, isn’t it?
I mean, Rachel has a Ph.D., the talk I would refer to took place at an Ive League institution… sounds like the ingredients of something vaguely legitimate instead of an act of random fangirling.
( I hope).

Rizzoli and Isles (Sub)Text Recap: Don't Stop...
[B+K] Maybe I was prematurely getting my hopes up and expecting too much last week, when - judging from the promos - I was predicting “Don’t Stop Dancing, Girl’ as the sapphically-enhanced remake of Black Swan… which, as it turned out, it wasn’t, because a) no one got high on undefined drugs and had sex with themselves while their mother was watching (thank God) and...

Watch“Are you gonna be my girl”
[B+K] The American version of yet another casting show, The Voice, already showed the gay potential of the format…. but for once, the German copy topped the original, when The Voice of Germany sent singers Sharron Levy and Katja Georgas-Spanos into the ring tonight for their battel/sing-off. A sing-off, I might mention, way more fun than anything you...

Rizzoli & Isles (Sub)Text Recap: Beards Ain't So...
[B+K] If anyone still had doubts about Maura’s gayness after last week, they are quickly shattered in this week’s episode “Seventeen Ain’t So Sweet”.
Unfortunately Jane is still deep in the closet and getting excited about her favorite kind of guy: the one who’s two continents away and will hence not be able to touch her in the near future. While Maura is -...

[K] I get a queer feeling now, when I look at you, buddy…

WatchMusic Videos That Made Me Gay - Today: Grace Jones’ “Slave to the Rhythm”
[B] This is all my parents’ fault … I remember browsing through their CDs, looking at all this colorful and beautiful covers and then a cover of Grace Jones’ Slave to the Rhythm. I was so fascinated by her look I almost forgot to breath. In retrospect I know why: she was the first androgynous woman...

The Big Bang Theory: Another Pamy Moment
[B] No wonder Amy’s relationship with Sheldon doesn’t work out … Amy only has eyes for Penny. Wise choice girl … wise choice.

Top Lesbian Films Not To Watch - Today: Spider...
[K] Spider Lilies, a Taiwanese film from 2007 with the tagline: “A Daring Portrait of Forbidden Love” was a major success in the Asian market and pretty successful in its European festival run as well (Teddy Award for example)… the crucial question is how do you make sure your audience understands that a love is forbidden? Well, if subtelty isn’t your thing you could...

– One of the female bachelors in The Nurtull Gang comments on living with her female roommates
[K] As you can probably guess from the quote, The Nurtull Gang a.k.a The Female Bachelors (1923, Per Lindberg, Original Title: Norrtullsligan) is a lot of fun to watch. Whether you’re particularly...

Rizzoli & Isles Subtext Recap: This ain't hate,...
[B+K] I have only one question about this week’s episode: could these two be any more (obviously) in love?
My intution tells me “no”, but after 1 1/2 years of watching Rizzoli & Isles I’m a sucker for forensic evidence… yet since I can’t swipe their necks for DNA, video footage will have to do:
First of all: thanks TNT for driving all the gay girls...
