SHE MADE ME WATCH THIS! Lesbian TV and Movie Trivia

This week on She Made Me Watch This!, we welcome AfterEllen.com vloggers Bridget McManus and Karman Kregloe of You Can't Take Them Anywhere! (and, of course, Brunch with Bridget and We're Getting Nowhere) for a cut throat friendly game of lesbian TV and movie trivia. Since we were all in town for Dinah Shore Weekend, why not get unnecessarily competitive have some fun with one another?

I conned my sister Autumn into moderating the game, and she did her best at maintaining some semblance of order and fair play. (She knows how lesbians can be.) I won't spoil it for you, but let's just say that some of us so-called "lesbian pop culture experts" knew a little less about obscure lesbian films and Buffy the Vampire Slayer than might be expected.

If you'd like to play along with us, get your pen and paper, your poker chips, and practice your smack talk. If possible, have a swimming pool handy to dunk your losing opponent.

    I just kept watching, basking in the Sarah/Lori-insight glow until the end of the Juo review - apparently you guys could read the phone book and I'd laugh and vehemently agree

    Soggy Chips

    Not only would I have pushed Bridgette in the pool for you Sara, I would have made her fish out all of the chips she threw in there. Have fun at Dinah! Wish I was there :(

    bad lesbian?

    I always feel like somewhat of a bad lesbian for not knowing many of these answers...

    Am I alone?

    shortstack51's picture

    Me too

    haha, I don't know any of these either...I just blame my being young ;)

    I think Imagine Me & You and Desert Hearts were the only movies I could answer questions about (and I never made it through Desert Hearts...I thought it was boring, though I adore Imagine Me & You). I made it through about 10 episodes of The L Word before I gave up on that too...am I a terrible lesbian?? haha

    I dunno, I'm reaaaally picky about TV shows/movies (I really don't like excessive amounts of drama without good writing to make up for it.....wait, then why am I a lesbian?? ;) ), and I think some of this stuff on here came out when I was young...er. I'm sure there's tons of stuff out there that's good that I haven't seen just because I've got no clue it exists!!

    ...I'm going to go rewatch imagine me & you...again. hee

    ROTFL

    ROTFL

    That was awesome! I cannot believe Sarah couldn't remember Love and Other Catastrophes. Shiis! And to be fair, Buffy season 8 is not a movie and TV trivia question... it should have been a general lesbian popculture so I'm with Karmen on that one.

    Also, it's a little sad but I played the game right with you guys and I got all the questions right (well except the one about the upcoming Wanted movie :D ... as it is not yet premiered). I SO need to get a life!!! :D

    boywithmoonandstars's picture

    Love and other catastrophes.

    That was a good obscure question. I got it...after I paused the vlog for a minute.. Thanks for taking time to keep bringing us content .

    looks like you ladies had a good time 

    panacirema's picture

    team awesome

    ...well, you're still awesome in my book.

    ROLLER SKATES!!! I didn't watch the movie and I know that..... why do I know that?

    I miss the sun. my abs hurt from suppressing laughter so as not to wake my napping roommate.

    omg, inbd

    Amylin's picture

    Team Karman!

    Haha awesome vlog! i had some responses, that was unexpected :) Guess i've watched more lesbian movies than i thought!

    Sarah's sister is amazing!

    Anneke_bb's picture

    No me gusto. Agua.

    Bridget SO needed to go into that pool :P

    But just because she speaks a little spanish, you let her go? WHOAAAT?!

    Gha, anyway, very very nice! But I'm a little dissapointed in Sarah ;)

    Wow that place is Sunny!

    i only got half of the questions. but i was getting distracted by the shenanigans that were going on in the back ground!

    even though Bridget was just the cheerleader, i still love her ;)

    Abana's picture

    Team Karman

    Yeah for Team Karman! But Bridget so needed to be pushed into the pool!

    But what did Autumn's t-shirt say?

    I couldn't see it to read it...sigh
    sarahwarn's picture

    Autumn's t-shirt

    It said "I'm not a lesbian but my sister is. A big one." :D

    The t-shirt I almost made for her instead was "I created pan ball", because she called me up halfway through watching the Brunch with Bridget episode I was on to yell at me for claiming I created pan ball, when really it was all her idea. (She's a liar! But I'll make that shirt for her sometime anyway, because she thought it was hilarious... ;)

    TheWeyrd1's picture

    ohhhhhhh....

    Thanks for sharing!!! And such a fast response too! Were you looking over my shoulder while I was typing?

    And fun was had by all!

    iar's picture

    Ha Ha Sarah...

    ..went in the pool! Did you actually go in with sunglasses ON?!

    Karman's even more competative that Sarah...scary!!

    I've decided that when I go see Wanted in the cinema I'm going to cheer "Yay Bridget..woooo.." really loudly when she's on screen. See if anyone else in the room is an afterellen reader/viewer....

    Autumn's house looks absolutely beautiful! I'm so jealous! Sitting here in rainy, sleety Wales...*sigh*...Maybe I'll relocate.

    bittybuffy's picture

    Me Too!

    "I've decided that when I go see Wanted in the cinema I'm going to cheer "Yay Bridget..woooo.." really loudly when she's on screen. See if anyone else in the room is an afterellen reader/viewer...." Me too! Mine probably won't be voluntary though. I heart Bridget!

    That was SO wristcuffy. I love you guys so much. I can't believe I missed Dinah Shore to go watch the (not so) Super Reds lose at Wembley! I should've gone with the lesbians.

    iar's picture

    Are you..

    ...talking about Barnsley?!! If so...commiserations...but I'm Cardiff born and bred so I was LOVING it!!

    Wounded! (And sorry to go off topic)

    Indeed I am! (Yoooooooouuuuuuuuuu Reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeddddddddds!) Your goal came completely against the run of play! Even if it was very, very well taken. I bet Ledley won't score a goal as good as that in his life! I will admit that we were shocking defensively and we decided that passing the ball to each other was less fun than giving it away and chasing Cardiff players all over! And I'm not just a sore loser; you guys had the better chances in the second half, but overall it was a bit rubbish!
    And just because you won and I AM a sore loser I'm going to have a go at you for not having ANY money... you want to borrow some!!!! (Just kidding, but I had to!)
    Oh, and I'm a Portsmouth fan for the final, sorry!!!! Play up Pompey!!!

    *squeeee*

    I haven't even watched and my heart is filled with adulation for this vid.  Off to view.  Woo hoo.

    Karman, how in the world did you not see the front panel of AE with Buffy in bed with a girl?  It was up for 3 days. 

    Thanks for letting us in on the fun in the sun.  Tough work life this week.

    haha...I was thinking that too!

    "Karman, how in the world did you not see the front panel of AE with Buffy in bed with a girl?  It was up for 3 days."

    I've not read one issue of the Buffy comic but I still knew the answer from reading Sarah's blog!

    I still heart you Karmen! =)

    Chandler line!

    Omigosh I totally knew that! And I haven't seen Friends in years. "The whole world is my lesbian wedding." You see, even though my entire 10 season collection of Friends DVD's dissapperated between my last move, I have this innate ability to memorize every Friends line there ever was so just in case some one asks me to finish a sentence from dialogue in the show, I can do it without even thinking. I pride myself in this much more than any of my other less impressive abilities.

     

    Fun blog girls!

    Sabriel's picture

    Wow...

    that view is incredible! And I'm so jealous of the sun!

    Someone really needed to push Bridget in >:)

    Afterellen Lesbian Trivia!

    Fun to watch. I,too, got distracted. I haven't seen a lot of Lesbian Movies. I was trying to get one of the last questions right about the first lesbian kiss on tv. LA Law. Is that where one of the dects/cop climbs a tree and looks at a two women kissing? Why I keep thinking it's another late 80s/ 90s show. I thought it was another tv show?

    Bridget you're so bad yet so funny! I can't believe Team Karma won? Funny to watch Sarah W to get thrown in the pool. Abana, you're right. Bridget should've been in the pool.

    The A's picture

    That was a grate vlog!and

    That was a grate vlog!

    and Bridget should have been thrown in the pool! that would been funny:)

    and i dont believe that i knew some of the answers that Sarah Warn couldnt *proud*

    and when Autumn asked what that song was in Bound, I immediately started singing *she's a lady ooaaa ooaoo shes a lady!" 

    anyways good vlog:D 

    Omega II's picture

    I've been blinded by Autumns hair!

    Sarah and Autumn are related? I don't buy it. ;P

    Bridget SO needs to get dunked!

    I'm with you Sarah, I could hear the song from Bound in my head but couldn't remember the name either. I hate the wrist-cuffy feeling when that happens.

    Karman Kregloe I heart you.

    Sarah: We're here for Dinah Shore.

    Karman: (sing-songy)She's dead.

    Bridget: Did you really just say that?

    Karman: (laughing) Yeah.

    That was so messed up yet amazingly hilarious. Thank you, Karman.

    Ok, who here thinks Lori Grant is the sweetest person evah? Sweet, snarky, and awesome. Who disagrees? Ha! I didn't think so.

    I love the way Bridget's brain works. So amazingly quirky and quick. Hmm that's hot.

    Sarah Warn is the best sport ever! You lost and actually got in the pool. You are so cool. By the way your sister is completely adorable and mighty funny.

    Lori's Shirt

    I so totally want Lori's shirt. 

    Also, I think Bridget should have gotten thrown in the pool as well.  If I was there, I would have pushed her in.

    Lost and Delirious


    It was Paulies Raptor not Toris...sorry im a nerd i know but even so :p

    I woulda thrown Bridget in too!

    Shall I abide in this dull world, which in her absence is no better then a sty?
    Pyewacket's picture

    And Sarah was right!

    It was a falcon, not a hawk!

    How do I know?

    *cough* AE movie review *cough*

    "That being said, there were one too many shots of Paulie's falcon, especially towards the end - like we need more bird metaphors in film?"

    Good Vlog

    I had fun watching this vlog and I was proud for knowing some of the answers that you had :) :) :)

    Sarah and Lori I m sorry that you lost, but I am happy that karmen and bridget won :) I really like these kind of games cause it's funny, but of course you have to watch a lot of movies or TV-shows to know the answers...

    Once again good and funny Vlog... :D

    Lish79's picture

    Good vlog!

    and I got most of the answers right! Good to know that my mind is filled with lesbian film/tv (and comics) knowledge...though I live in nowhere PA so it goes to waste. Though maybe once every year I get to pull my trivia card out, give a long drawn out detailed answer to something lesbian film/tv related (even if they didn't ask) and proudy proclaim "I know lesbians in film/tv! Go me!" Which usually ends up in weird looks and a pat on the head. Hmmm. They just don't understand. Anyway.... Good vlog! I love this site! :D
    bittybuffy's picture

    13

    I got 13 right. I was annoyed I didn't get the Chandler line right. Damn it!

    Bridget spent the whole vlog acting like a petulant child... it was hilarious! I think Autumn should've thrown everyone in the pool for not following the rules or listening! How competitive is Karmen? Holy crap, that was funny!

    I heart Bridget McManus.

    jordan-writes's picture

    Haha I love Bridget!

    I loved when Team Awesome got one right and Bridget goes "Yay you get a chip in the pool!" Good vlog! Well, now that I've watched this I guess I have nothing better to do than to write my English paper about the terrible health care in this country. Woo!

    Xandra318's picture

    My abs..


    ..hurt from laughing so much!! That was hilarious!!! Like mixing our 4 favorite vlogs together (SMMWT, WGN, BwB, and YCTTA) and putting them in California!! The result: lesbian hilarity that made me ROTFLMAO!! If possible I less than three all of you even more each time I see you (because you're all just so wristcuffy!). And you know two Warns are better than one!

    Haha Team Awesome vs Team Karman, I honestly didn't know who was going to win! Sarah and Lori, I guess you just made your questions too easy!! You're still the #1 professional lesbian to me Sarah, even if you did lose!!

    I love how Lori kept mouthing the answers and stuff to the camera, because you know we knew the answers before you guys did!! (The only question I got wrong was the "Wanted" one, but now I know to look out for the lovely Bridget!)

    Favorite Moment (one of many in this vlog!):

    Autumn: I'm just doing what the lesbian demanded.

    Karman: It's always best when you do that!

    Haha so funny and SO true!!!

    Thanks for a hilarious half-hour!! Hope y'all had fun at Dinah!!

     

    McLayn's picture

    Great Vlog!

    That was really funny.

    And I vote for Bridget and the pool.

     

    As for WANTED, I was going to see it asap. Now I'm going to see it for Bridget!

    Some of my friends will think I'm crazy, but who cares. Bridget s so worth it.
