Quick Thoughts: Wait…Not Quite Meredith Grey looks familiar. *googles* OH YOU WERE ELIZABETH BERKLEY IN THE SAVED BY THE BELL UNAUTHORIZED MOVIE. Your version of the “I’m so excited” scene was not bad. Also apparently that full movie is on Lifetime’s YouTube. Did you know that Screech was just a nice kid before Jason from The Good Place showed up in a denim vest and offered him vodka?

Selena: The Series

Before she became the Queen of Tejano Music, Selena Quintanilla was a young girl from Texas with big dreams and an even bigger voice. Selena: The Series explores her journey from singing small gigs to becoming the most successful female Latin artist of all time — and the years of hard work and sacrifice the Quintanilla family navigated together. 

Starring: Christian Serratos, Gabriel Chavarria, Ricardo Chavira, Noemí Gonzalez, Seidy López, Jesse Posey

Quick Thoughts: I think the movie’s pretty perfect but it would be nice to see Selena’s life in more detail. Like the movie, this show is also produced by members of Selena’s family. Here’s where it gets a little thorny. Things between the Quintanilla family and Chris Pérez, Selena’s widower, have gotten a little tense. In 2016, Pérez was sued by Abraham Quintanilla after he attempted to adapt his book about his relationship with Selena into a show. They came to some sort of agreement and the lawsuit was dropped. Chris Pérez will be played by Jesse Posey (brother of Teen Wolf) but the musician has said he has no involvement in Selena: The Series. It seems like Abraham Quintanilla was perfectly game to see himself portrayed as unreasonable about his daughter’s relationship with Pérez in the movie but with relations being frostier now, it’ll be interesting to see what their version of Chris Pérez is.

Yet they all share a rare talent and passion for dance, a loyal sense of community… and when it comes to their dreams, no Plan B.

 Starring: Kylie Jefferson, Lauren Holly, Casimere Jollette, Brennan Clost, Barton Cowperthwaite, Bayardo De Murguia, Damon J. Gillespie, Anna Maiche, Daniela Norman, Michael Hsu Rosen, Tory Trowbridge

Quick Thoughts: Yay! Murder Ballet! Ballet’s hard to film so I do love that we’re getting so many ballet shows. May they all be as bonkers crazy as Center Stage.

Kylie Jefferson is the lead here. She was just featured as the Fairy Queen in Dance Dreams: The Hot Chocolate Nutcracker, where she talks about a suffering a terrible injury a couple months into dancing with her dream company. It’s nice that she’s the lead in a tv show is what I’m saying. Also The Hot Chocolate Nutcracker is excellent and you should watch it.
