Minx Season 2 episode 8……..
I am so happy for Joyce, Tina, Shel, Richie, and Bambs…. But oh my god oh my god oh my god!
Like no warning??? Tina and Doug are just done? Just like that? I don’t get nothing else?
And with Constance?
I want to say it was a moment of weakness and vulnerability of losing Tina but having a “win.” That now that his money is up! Now that he’s in his bag and he’s got the biggest deal of his life, that he might as well with the woman that gave it to him.
And clearly he likes any type of strong woman…
But deep down.. I know it’s not true.
Bambi gets to help out Shelly’s husband while she goes off with her lover. They are separating so that’s fine. Good for both of them.
Are we supposedly building up to a Shelly x Bambi x Richard? (I forgot mr Dentist man’s name😬)
If so dope, if not, still dope.
Love Richie telling Joyce to fuck off.
I knew we were getting a minx family moment at the end but fuck,,, I didn’t know Doug wouldn’t be there.
Joyce fianally following her gut and taking a stand. She should have been speaking up for herself, but I understand the “complexity” of the situation.
Tina being out as soon as Constance said “women like us” is such a mood. She’s never been more relatable to me. (She always is, but I just love it when it’s turned up to 1000x)
However, I knew there would come a time where Doug without a doubt would choose money over Tina and everyone else, and somehow it still hurts to see it happen.
So this stupid heartbreak is on me! I’m the fucking clown here, and it hurts worse because of it!!
No matter what happenes I have always been on Tina’s side.
Baby girl is still going to Paris to do the damn thing, so I am not that upset.

Minx Season 2 Episode 7
(I apologize in advance for how long this is. However, I included markers by character.)
We have had two seasons of this show and even though there’s one more episode left, I’m gonna go ahead and call it it…..
One thing about Minx, the last three episodes are always going to be the best! This show climaxes like no other show I’ve watched before.
But my jaw is simply on the floor, more so than last week.
I always knew Constance was up to something, but as satisfying as being right is, at what cost!
I am in emotional turmoil!
But I’m moving too fast. I’ll come back to that later.
The mommy murder opening was insane!
But Doug and his bird? Hilarious.
No one takes nonsense as seriously as Jake Johnson does. I will always love that about him.
I’m guessing he has no name because everyone just calls him bird or the bird, but in my mind his name is Petey. It’s just a very birdy name.
Richie
Richie’s story arch is tied to his creativity and how he uses Minx to explore that. It’s not just his creativity, but an expression of himself, his sexuality, and his queerness.
At Bottom Dollar, Richie had complete creative control. Joyce didn’t care what these pictures looked like as long as she could write whatever articles she wanted.
But after their success and fame, Joyce is pushing back. She’s pushing more and more to have a say into the magazine. It is very much her magazine so she can do that, but she has a repertoire with Richie. He’s not some random employee, but a friend who’s been there since she started.
There is a right and wrong way to go about things.
Constance tells her about the rumor of gay readers and Joyce relents even though she believes that all kinds of people have the right to be buying and engaging in their magazine. However, Joyce respects and admires Constance, so she’ll be more open to doing what she suggests. If this idea was presented by literally anyone else, we would have gotten the regular Joyce Prigger pushback.
But back to Richie, he takes this opportunity to do what he wants. He does the bathhouse shoot. And I am proud of him for going after what he wants even though this is only going to result in backlash and a fight.
But that’s why we love this show!
The best scenes happen when these characters aren’t exactly on the same page, but we want them to be.
They all have the same goal of wanting to be a part of this magazine and wanting it to work for their careers and personal and professional desires. They can either do it together, or start stabbing each other in the back or disrespecting each other a long the way, like they’ve been doing all throughout season 2.
And when Richie takes away all of the Minx people and goes back into a creative space that probably shows why he probably picked up his camera in the first place, we finally see a glimpse into why he’s been acting the way he has. (If it hasn’t been obvious to some. This show has a lot of subtlety)
And the moment in the end when he photographs the police raid? Beautiful. Simply beautiful.
Shelly and Bambi
Shelly’s character arc has definitely been throwing me through a loop.
Clearly she can’t just cheat on her husband. She’s doubling down and recommitting to him, and then they became swingers?
Just what exactly is going on?
But her decision to come out to her husband completely??
What’s gonna happen now?!?!
Are they gonna get a divorcee? Is he going to be her beard? Is she gonna move to that college Joyce went to and be with professor Miram?
But overall the conversation she has with Bambi was one of the best scenes this episode.
It gives us more insight into Bambi than we’ve had so far and it’s amazing!
Bambi is such a dynamic character!
She’s fun and flirty and her one liners never fail to make me laugh, but it’s very easy to create an idea of who she is than actually dive into the character she actually might be, and the show playing with that idea that we have as an audience and showcasing that in this moment through Shelly is Brilliant!
I love good writing!😭
Because I don’t think we know a lot about Bambi either! All we know is that her and Shelly being together would mean a lot to us as an audience.
Shelly decided on her own that Bambi isn’t a good idea, and in her own way, maybe she’s right.
But it’s not fair to act like Bambi doesn’t have just as many feelings and thoughts about what happened between them.
Joyce and Constance
I’m not gonna lie.
I haven’t fully understood Joyce’s journey this season.
So she’s full of herself now? Is that supposed to be it?
However, I will do my best to bring out something. However, no one please hesitate to tell me off if you thought of something else! I really wanna talk to other people!!!
Joyce has always been a little insecure.
It was her biggest battle in season one. She chose to publish herself through a porn magazine and she couldn’t really handle the backlash or anything that came with it.
But in season two, she’s okay with it, but it’s starting to bleed into other factors of her life.
There are more eyes on her than before, and she now probably in a very deep down secret place, believes being unknown and overlooked was better.
There are more eyes on her than ever. She’s in Rolling Stone. People know who she is, but Joyce doesn’t actually know who she is or who she wants to be. She has idea of that, but her insecurity of herself, leaves her grasping at straws.
When Constance tells her to make sure the magazine isn’t too gay, she immediately ignored her own thoughts and desires out of some respect and admiration, but if it was Doug, she might not have let that happen. She would have pushed back.
When Constance Tells her she’s in control and every decision is hers, she doesn’t push back on Constance giving Tina the job even though she gave it to Doug. It’s safe to assume (maybe? Probably?), that Constance has only given Joyce an illusion of control.
However, if that’s true, it only works because she thinks Constance is her mentor.
And she is!
It’s beautiful to see a successful woman take Joyce under her wing. I don’t think there was any maliciousness or cold hearted business at play when it comes to their relationship.
I think Constance doesn’t want to see what happened to her happen to Joyce, but Constance doesn’t understand the friendship between all these people. She doesn’t understand that they have a bond that used to mean something to each other! That they still have in some ways! It’s just not as strong. Success, money, and fame have left them all a little distant, but I think in the finale, they will all reconnect with that bond and each other.
So when they have that final conversation by the fire, I think it finally sinks in for Joyce (or maybe not completely, but at least a little, ) that Constance might not know everything. That she might not be what she wanted from a mentor.
That she can’t rely on other people’s opinion of her and stand on her own ground a little.
Maybe this in addition to the conversation with her sister and that moment on the plane ,after she hooks up with that guy, will finally help Joyce come to terms with herself and stop relying on outward praise and attention from others.
Doug and Tina
Doug is on the Scneid!!
He said so himself.
It’s been loss after loss after loss.
Constance has taken almost everything from him, and even then she goes for literally everything.
She’s dissolving Bottom Dollar and she might take away Minx altogether!
His life’s work and his first golden ticket!
He confronts Tina and wow do they have a conversation…
Tina has been his secretary for 10 years! She helped him build Bottlm Dollar from the ground up!
And what does she have to show for it?
Nothing.
But a year and a few months with Constance (I’m making up the time skip. I didn’t do the actual math or go back and look at the episodes to figure it out, but let’s pretend!☺️)
And she has the biggest promotion of her life! She gets to go to Europe!
Doug is losing his entire life and the girl.
He might be able to stomach losing his job. He is a natural born hustler. He will dust himself off from this loss and find his next moneymaker. Lord knows this wouldn’t be his first time doing it.
But he can’t lose Tina too. Because she is everything. She gives his life the meaning. Tina is what is actually worth living for.
This will literally leave him with nothing, and it might crush him.
But Tina is getting her first glimpse at everything she’s ever hoped and dreamed for. And as a black woman in the 70s, she has to take it. That’s a no brainer!
After this episode I can’t help to think, that this offer from Constance is her thing. It’s what she’s been working her life towards.
However, she’s always wanted it during those ten years with Doug. She wanted him to give her that shiny life changing offer.
The only promotion he’s given her was to spite Joyce after she walked out on Minx after the talk show.
While she loves Doug, she can’t exactly trust him to put her first.
She’s broken her back, supported him when she knows he’s wrong, and given everything to make sure his thing works out.
But he can’t stand to see the tables turned for once.
I love Tina and Doug, I love the scenes where they smile at each other and they’re happy, where you can’t help but to think of all the ways they love each other.
However, there is something about angst that truly makes them come alive.
Idara and Jake bring out so much more from these two characters when they fight, and I want to see more!
I really hope the next episode doesn’t patch things up with a bandage and big bright bow and give us a 100% happy ending.
I want bottom dollar to be okay, and I want them to get the reigns of Minx from Constance. I also really want the relationship between Tina and Doug to build itself up to the couple they can be.
They are not on the same page. (I’ll make a post about that by itself later.)
This episode was truly something special. Everyone had their acting hats on and they were also in their bag!
I can’t wait to see how episode 8 somehow tops this one.

Concept: A high fantasy western comics/manga hybrid.
The world: torn apart by generations of war a small island nation is slowly pulling itself out of cultural chaos.
Our hero's:
A paladin who is on a quest to revive the ancestrial magic of his homeland that was stolen/destroyed by waves of conquest. (this is Tolkien)
An war weary rogue who is more than willing to help his friend the Paladin with any practical adventuring but who has seen to much of the real world to believe in magic anymore. (this is Lewis) The rouge is on a minor quest to find the source of this really beautiful song/artificat that the paladin instantly recognizes as 'old magic' but that the rouge insists has a naturalistic explination. He really wants to find the creator though (this is George Macdonald).
A lecherous bard who is 100% with the paladin on his quest to revive the magic but has profound dissagreements on the difference between good and black magic. (this is Williams)
In their travels they meet up with a plucky young female ranger with carrot red hair and a temper to match from a colony across the great ocean who 100% believes in the ancient magic and is *in* on the paladin's quest. She has no magic of her own relying only on hard work, practical woodland skills, and a neverending supply of cheerful attitude and gumption and a complete disregard for the social conventions of the others (this is LM Mongomery and Laura Ingles Wilder)
A thief with a weird ammount of medical knowledge and an almsot supernatural ability to know what is going on by analyzing the clues available to them. (obvs this Sir Author Conan Doyal)
Interesting characters they meet on their way.
An ally/enemy in a strange and ancient socerres with an army of the undead at her command. (Mary Shelly)
A chaos wizard who is quite mad and surrouned by talking animals. (Lewis Carrol)
Three strange, lonely girls, who live alone on the moor and weave strange magics of their own (bronte sisters)
