BONUS EP! Cruel (for the) Summer

Everybody A Everybody Gay

In this episode, we’re heading back to the ’90’s with Cruel Summer. We talk the central mystery’s many parallels to PLL, our delight in seeing predatory behavior framed as wrong, how the ending recalibrates everything we think we know about the characters, the inherent queerness of Jeanette’s Kate obsession, the important role that therapy plays in the narrative, and the lovely soft epilogue of Kate and Mallory’s relationship.

Spoilers for all of season 1 of Cruel Summer.

Content warning: this episode contains mentions of grooming, sexual assault, domestic violence and suicide.
