AJ and the Queen

Very cute new show on Netflix. Somewhat Disneyesque show about a drag queen 👑 Ruby Red traveling across country with the little man child AJ. Many lessons to be learned for sure, but hate isn't among them. Learning to embrace change and love your neighbor seems to be the underlying message in this all too real, in your face series about moderne love! Get with it, I give it five snaps! Pax, Murf

Story telling a drag queen life or many gay men life actually. Robert or Ruby is a 50s drag queen which life is lonely without any close one. The bond between AJ and Robert is funny and learn to be accepted and accommodated. Everyone can be drag or with 2 sides of faces. AJ just look like a young version of Madonna. Many jokes made me smile from my heart.

I loved AJ and the Queen. It's sad that NetFlix cancelled the show March 2020. I even got other family members to watch and they said they would love to see a Season 2. It was good for a laugh and easy going show instead of tense drama, blood and marital arts. I think RuPaul was super and deserved an Emmy. Even the lil girl was super.

Now that I've seen the entire season, have to admit this seemingly trite concept has panned-out beyond the generic boundaries in thoughtful and useful ways. Of course and although the standard hero/villain, love/loss, rich/poor narratives wind well-trodden paths, they leave unsuspected and insightful foot-prints; stiletto prints where mom-runners are perhaps expected. Yet, timeless lessons are featured in crescendo ("Unspeakable Joy") and a few new narratives shed light and sensitivity on new subjects, like what may be described as the the youth suffering threshold and un-met needs currently carried by countless unaccepted, unloved, and un cared-for children in our society-along with a reminder of the un-met capacity of love and care that simultaneously exists within our LGBT community.

I think RuPaul deserves an Emmy as the first drag queen triple threat.

There's so much I wanna say about this but I think the point that I need to make is that this is not a gay story this is a story about people and as somebody who grew up during this generation it's passing of a torch in many ways.

I'll update this after more viewers watch this but the show brought me back some place that I had forgotten and was an in-depth part of, but it is not a story about gay people it's a story about all people. Just have some fun along the way.
