Episode Notes
On this week’s episode of The Waves, June Thomas, senior managing producer of Slate podcasts and a host of Working, talks with Willa Paskin, Slate TV critic and host of Decoder Ring, about the reboot of Gossip Girl. They discuss how the show messed up by making its characters too nice, why the teachers may be the most interesting part of the reboot, and whether Gossip Girl has finally figured out its class politics.
In the Slate Plus segment, Gateway Feminism, June talks about how the way Billie Jean King’s name was shown on the Wimbledon scorebaord made her a feminist. And Willa breaks down the feminist parts of The Philadelphia Story.
