Taking TV Too Seriously
Have you ever been told you take TV shows and movies way too seriously? Join hosts Micky (he/him) and Michelle (she/they) in Taking TV Too Seriously every two weeks as they take a dive deep into the media of their childhoods and beyond. Sometimes it’s funny, sometimes it’s serious, and sometimes they tell you what characters should’ve been queer and which of your favorite children’s movies were racist all along. For business inquiries and fan rants, please email takingtvtooseriously@gmail.com. In between episodes, find them on Instagram @takingtvtooseriously.
