This episode of NWMS is dedicated entirely to talking about the TV shows we love that are centred around strong female protagonists – which, er, segues rapidly into talking about all sorts of random TV shows with male leads. Please, don’t judge us for veering away from the point.
Things we discuss include:
- The Wilds on Amazon Prime
- The Bechdel Cast podcast (and their merch)
- take a FREE personality test! (not spon #wewish)
- Buffy the Vampire Slayer
- Xena: Warrior Princess!
- Wonder Woman (the 1970s series)
- The X-Files
- My So-Called Life
- the Harry Styles fan fiction Rosemary read (and loved) by Anna Todd
- Harry Styles’ cardigan
- Detective Ellen Lucas on Amazon Prime
- Call My Agent! on Netflix
- Flack on Amazon Prime
- Bling Empire on Netflix
- Too Hot to Handle on Netflix
- The Killing starring Mireille Enos and Joel Kinnaman (NOT Alexander Skarsgard, the Swede Beatrice is referring to as coming from an acting dynasty)
- Charmed, Sabrina the Teenage Witch and Law & Order, a great example of “one of these shows is not like the other”
- Sex & the City or, as Beatrice has renamed it, Saps & the City
