Listen, if you go into First Kill thinking it’s gonna be this masterpiece, you’re gonna be highly disappointed. I’m learning that some things are just meant to be what they are. First Kill is just meant to be what it is: a teen drama about a lesbian vampire and lesbian monster hunter falling in love.
It feels good knowing that half the MAIN cast is black. Black people in a SUPERNATURAL show at that! Like, she was written as black in the short story. It wasn’t a white character they made black so they could fill a quota or gloatingly check a diversity box. Y’all can’t tell me that’s not rare. And for the most part, they feel like a black family. The way Taila hits Calliope with that “Because I said so!” is VERY black y’all 😂
It feels good knowing that the romance is not centered around their sexuality. They literally have one conversation about coming out and then they move on because not every queer relationship has a person struggling to be who they are. A lot of queer relationships can start with two VERY out people. AND MORE IMPORTANTLY, not every family is unaccepting.
This show has its issues but its not meant to be this emmy winning show that has some deep meaning and/or all this other shit. If you want that, go watch Stranger Things or something. It’s just meant to make you enjoy watching it and not take it too seriously and that’s what it does.
Let us gays sit and enjoy some gay content.
