That Hallmark debacle made for some good tweets and content, Mia Kirshner says Jenny Schecter’s not dead (but there’s a podcast you need to listen to if you want to know more), return dates for Sabrina and Grace & Frankie, Disney+’s new Star Wars series will reportedly have a lesbian character, and more!
