#crossingjordan — Public Fediverse posts

Connected to this, I want to share a little snippet that I love from a queer magazine in 2002. #CrossingJordan #TheAdvocate

"[...] Jill Hennessy, who played the lesbian character Lisa in the 1999 indie film Chutney Popcorn and now blurs gender boundaries weekly as velvet-voiced, sexy-yet-single coroner Dr. Jordan Cavanaugh. "My acting teacher used to say, `Gosh, you walk like a track driver,'" says Hennessy, who, like her TV heroine, was raised by her single father. "I guess I just learned that by being with my dad. I feel like the perception of what feminine is in this culture is so narrow," says the star. "That's why I was really happy to play a character who's not overly feminized. You know, somebody who could be misinterpreted. People might think, Well, what the heck's up with her? Is she gay, straight--does she have issuers? I like to keep them thinking.""

We watched 2x07 of Crossing Jordan today and this is the second episode that bisexuality is mentioned. In the early 2000s.
Sometimes I feel shows back then were better at grasping concepts and actually naming them. We're in 2024 and shows nowadays can't seem to fucking say the word EVER. #CrossingJordan #Bisexuality #Bierasure
