9 Female Characters We Wish We’d Been More Like In High School
Because teenagerdom is a mess, but some people handle it better than others.
and let it be known
We’ve been interested in the development of Brian Michael Bendis and Michael Avon Oeming‘s Powers into an drama series for FX since it was announced back in February. So far, the only substantial news that’s come out about is the casting of Charles S. Dutton as head of the homicide department that the series main characters, Christian Walker and Deena Pilgrim work in. The two detectives navigate the extra tricky lives of cops in a world of super powered heroes. Walker is a former superhero who became a policeman after his powers were taken away, and though he maintains ties to that community, keeps his former status a secret from his coworkers.
Deena has recently gotten superpowers, but is also trying to keep her status a secret, because the first time she used them she accidentally killed her abusive boyfriend and covered up the evidence. What’s more, Deena has now been cast.
Lucy Punch, who you might remember best as playing the chick who played Juliet and died early in Hot Fuzz, is slated to play Deena in the pilot, which will be filming this summer. The pilot was written by Charles H. Eglee, whose written for Dexter, The Walking Dead, and The Shield, and Bendis is co-producing, so we have high hopes for the series if it manages to get greenlit for a full season.

"SHARKS. Just when you thought it was safe to go back in the uterus." - A thing I just said in chat, sans context.

In a perfect world, that would make those men MORE sympathetic to women when they talk about objectification of women in media.
-
Susana Polo
But really the take away from this is that two seconds of quickly covered up Chris Hemsworth stomach makes some men feel objectified.
-
Susana Polo
Good to know that a broad trend across much of visual media has effected one man, in one shot. We can all go home, sexism is over.
-

Whenever we bring up objectification of women in modern action movies, people always bring up the one shot of Chris Hemsworth shirtless.

The Voyager crew is in 1996 LA. Also Ed Begley and Sarah Silverman are there. I LOVE IT when Star Trek does cheesy time travel.
