2025: The Year In Television

With fewer good productions airing on network and cable networks and instead moving to the various streaming platforms, that seems to have taken over as my main form of non-game show or sports television watching.

Post Mortem – The Sex Lives Of College Girls

Created by Mindy Kaling and Justin Noble, The Sex Lives of College Girls premiered on HBO Max in 2021.  Following the lives of four 18-year-old freshmen roommates at the fictional Essex College, the series starred Pauline Chalamet, Amrit Kaur, Alyah Chanelle Scott, and Reneé Rapp.  Rapp, whose star rose higher than the others, left early in season three.  Following the release of the third season last November, the show was cancelled in March.

While Rapp seems to be focusing on music for the time being, the other three leads should find themselves finding new work relatively easily.  I look forward to seeing what comes next.
