Queer Beats – June 26, 2020

Queer Beats with Nikki Header

Welcome back to Queer Beats, your weekly one-stop shop for queer television news! This week, Council of Dads was cancelled, Lucifer was renewed, and Catradora continues to live on through quarantine!

Brooklyn Nine-Nine

In the wake of the reinvigorated Black Lives Matter movement, Brooklyn Nine-Nine has decided to rewrite all the episodes that were previously written for season 8.

Council of Dads

Council of Dads was cancelled at NBC which makes me VERY SAD! This show was like a queerer version of Parenthood.

The L Word: Generation Q

The first episode of Pants podcast (with Kate Moennig and Leisha Hailey) is up!

Lucifer

Lucifer has been renewed for a sixth and final season!

RED

A plug for CloudCon’s Red panel happening at 3pm today! It will be hosted by our very own Tracy Levesque!

She-Ra and the Princesses of Power

As usual, the She-Ra cast continues to deliver the goods. This week, Aimee and AJ did a live reading of some major Catradora scenes:

Noelle followed that up by posting the original version of the script:

Aimee even jumped in to give some options for “wow”!

South of Nowhere

Shoutout to LWTV team member, Carmel, for bringing this new haircut to my attention:

Supergirl

Chyler Leigh and her husband will be performing for Cloudcon to raise money for The Trevor Project!

And that’s it for Queer Beats this week! Always thorough, always professional, never random.
