Top ten wlw films/TV-series you recommend?😍

hi!! i do not feel qualified to answer this properly but i am honoured, thank you for trusting my taste in wlw stuff 😁

last year i was asked for my top 10 wlw films so this list will be top however many i can think of wlw tv shows (i don't actually watch that much wlw tv...)

• gentleman jack 2019-present - we're in yorkshire the 1830s and suranne jones stars as real-life wlw anne lister wooing her shy and anxious neighbour (also called ann, there's a lot of ann(e)s in this) and offering the sale of a coal mine for no less than 226 pounds 17 shillings and sixpence

• i am not okay with this 2020 - dark comic fantasy about a teenager navigating her sexuality, high school life, and her new superpowers. it's very intense and the main storyline is her powers but the gay yearning is Real too

• tipping the velvet 2002 - it's the victorian era and music hall male impersonator kitty butler seduces a girl from kent who then becomes part of her act and later goes solo and falls in love with someone else. there's quite a bit of nudity and sex and double-entendres involving oysters and anna chancellor being a top and honestly, strap in for a wild ride (innuendo fully intended)

• feel good 2020-present - ok so i've not seen series 2 yet but i'm sure it's just as good as s1 bc mae martin (writer and main character) is awesome. it's as much about addiction as it is sexuality (and gender in s2). worth it just for lisa kudrow tbh. mae and george are so sweet and hot in s1 but also there's george dealing with being in her first relationship not with a man and a lot of dark stuff in mae's brain

• one day at a time 2017-2020 - again, i've not seen the final series BUT. it's an american latinx family dealing with family stuff and the daughter is a lesbian who (spoiler alert, ish) dates a non-binary person from early s2 and they are cute as heck. watch also for rita moreno as the very dramatic and hilarious abuela

• vigil 2021 - suranne jones again, this time solving a murder on a royal navy submarine. and her colleague back at the police station she's liaising with? yeah they've done a lot of liaising if ya get me... don't quote me but i think it's the first time a major bbc crime drama series has had wlw main characters and the representation meant so much to me

pls be aware that most of these come with various trigger warnings

as always, recommendations are welcome and encouraged!
