@ people who watch sapphic shows
Paper Girls !!!!!
watch it watch it watch it
likeable multifaceted female protagonists
character growth
reluctant allies to found family
little butch 12 year old child with anger issues realising she's lovable
repressed jewish jock girl with anger issues coming to terms with her identity
chinese girl with eldest daughter syndrome learning to assert herself
black girl genius solving a mystery
has conversations about the problems of academia, importance of finding yourself, having fun instead of mindlessly pursuing goals
girls supporting girls
girls being girls: feral and funny
addresses racism, anti-semitism, classism, poverty, abuse etc. etc.
time travel
conversations with your future/past self with a twist
sapphic
but fyi the protagonists are literal children
Many sapphic shows have weird pacing/slow beginnings/kinda cringe writing etc. and that's totally okay. Not every piece of media has to be great and just to have(or to keep!) sapphic shows is such a struggle. But man I never had a moment were I struggled to keep watching which is otherwise often the case with me. It was just fucking good!

Joy Ride brings subtle wisdom to an otherwise bawdy comedy. Audrey’s core need is for belonging and acceptance. Instead of having her find it abroad, the film directs her to look to her friends who stood up for her on the playground or buoyed her through college. The idea of a pilgrimage leading you back to the loved ones who have been there all along is also a common plotline in a girl’s- or guy’s-trip narrative. But given Joy Ride’s cultural context, it is a clever undoing of the motherland trope. Audrey’s friends are her redemption because they’re part of the same complicated diaspora and know what it’s like to struggle to belong in specific ways.
—Nina Li Coomes on how Joy Ride subverts the motherland trope
