Minx

WOW. This was fantastic. Saw first two Episodes. I almost didn't watch it because the previews made it look a little corny and offensive. It actually has a lot to say and is very respectful to women and very sex positive, while still being really funny and heartwarming.

If you're uncomfortable around the area of sexual expression, you're probably going to be uncomfortable with this, but that might be a good thing. Expand the box!

Think Bridesmaids meets Playboy meets Gloria Steinem with a little New Girl thrown in.

As with the series 'Hung', it got boring quickly. I mean, you can only do so many episodes about a penis and make it interesting. The characters are not realistic and can only go so far. I give it this and maybe one more season if that. Good try but, meh.

Remember Hacks? When it premiered on HBOMAX? Of course you don't. You ignored it. Until it swept wins in all the major Emmy categories. Then everyone was like, "huh, guess I'll have to check it out." Well, Minx is the next Hacks and probably a better show, at least so far. Two episodes in and it's the best thing on TV currently. 1971, Los Angeles- a young feminist looking to start a pro-feminist magazine teams up with a low rent pornographer to create Minx, a magazine for women that lures them in with nude men. This show is utterly fantastic and Ophelia Lovibond and Jake Johnson are perfect in their roles. If your not watching you're missing out. 5/5 stars.

Update: Just finished Season One. I was right. It is the best show in TV right now. The characters are perfect, the story is engaging and the costumes are...*chefs kiss* If you haven't watched it yet, do it and then demand a second season.

Of course you need to evaluate a show primarily on its entertainment value, not its message - something I fear is being lost in today's society with today's award requirements - but Minx is successful in both metrics, without being offensive to any parties that may begin to harbor resentments - I highly recommend this but be forwarned of the plethora of wangs dings and weeks haha nah but ya for real.. Enjoy!

....and I must say I like it. I like the period setting, there is good acting, it's lighthearted fun, good writing and the casting is perfect. It has an obvious message but at the same time the message isn't overly in your face like a lot of other shows do.

It's definitely worth a watch. It got me hooked for sure.
