Summary

The brilliant Roxy Boudillon is back to unpack the cancellation of I Kissed a Boy/Girl, the power of queer reality TV, and whether these shows are judged more harshly than their straight counterparts.


We dive into the importance of seeing ourselves reflected onscreen and whether queer TV shows are set up to fail. After working closely alongside the launch of I Kissed a Boy, Roxy gives her industry insight into why I Kissed a Boy is never coming back.
