Queenmaker: The Making of an It Girl

The early 2000s exploded with and exploited the lifestyles of the rich & blameless like the Hilton sisters, the Oleson twins, and Tinsley Mortimer. Gawker, Perez Hilton, and other gossips all joined in the feeding frenzy. James Kurisunkal, an awkward college student, blogged with his Park Avenue Peerage. This fascinating documentary about belonging and identity reveals what happens to star fuckers and more. TikTokers beware!

Queen Charlotte: A Bridgerton Story

They finally gay things up in this soapy, sappy spinoff. This time it’s all about the royals. Dreamy Corey Mylchreest shows his royal derrière as young King George III (before that pesky Revolution business.) Reynolds is the King’s loyal butler, and Brimsley is the Queen’s loyal butler. And, boy, do they know how to buttle! It’s nothing like The Crown

Transatlantic

Loosely based on the true story of WWII resistance fighters who helped artists and other persecuted individuals escape from Nazi-occupied France, this is a spin on screwball comedies and the suspensethrillers of the 1930s and 1940s. The show also features a host of humpy hunks, as well as a most refreshing gay romance with openly queer actors.
