In this exclusive conversation we chat with Re-recording Mixer Marc Fishman and Supervising Sound Editor Mark Relyea about Little Fires Everywhere which is based on the 2017 novel of the same name by Celeste Ng and currently streaming on Hulu. The series stars Reese Witherspoon and Kerry Washington, both of whom also executive produced, alongside Liz Tigelaar, Lauren Neustadter, and Pilar Savone. Set in the Cleveland suburb of Shaker Heights, Ohio during the late 1990s, it features Witherspoon and Washington as mothers from different socioeconomic backgrounds. The story explores the weight of secrets, the nature of art and identity, the ferocious pull of motherhood – and the danger in believing that following the rules can avert disaster.

It’s the six month anniversary of Pop Fiction Women! In podcast time that's like a decade, so we wanted to celebrate, have some fun, and get personal.   *** We play a hilarious game of F*ck, Marry, Kill with the love interests of the complicated ladies we've covered over the first six months of the podcast. Our choices surprise even each other, but it’s highly entertaining and hard to get through it with all the laughter. (4:15) *** Carinn wanted to honor our complicated women from the podcast with their own game so she created “MBD” -- Me, BFF, and Die. We go through our favorite ladies and pick who is most like us, who we want to be friends with, and who we want to (sort of) die. Many a tough call, but surprisingly we were on the same page for the ladies (and NOT the men)! (34:00) *** Carinn and Kate chat about the highlights of the last six months. The “What She Said” segment is a favorite across the board and the social media engagement with the creators has been amazing. Celeste Ng with a re-tweet, Glennon Doyle with the “likes” and actual responses from Liz Feldman, creator of Dead to Me, Liz Tigelaar, showrunner of Little Fires Everywhere, and Taylor Jenkins Reid. Another benefit has been how much we have learned about each other and ourselves doing this podcast! (44:03) *** The stars have aligned and astrology has risen as a hallmark of Pop Fiction Women. Carinn walks us through the astrological signs of all of our creators with a hyperventilating-inducing moment from Taylor Jenkins Reid. After we catch our breath, we examine the patterns among their sun signs, their elements (fire, water, air, earth), and their qualities (cardinal, fixed or mutable). The conclusions are fascinating!

Little Fires Everywhere is the Messy Drama/Mystery You Didn't Know You Needed... Welcome back to another I Talk Sh*t & Read Book-to-Screen chat. This time, Ro and Joi are kicking off  a new one and the topic's Hulu Original series, Little Fires Everywhere. Hulu's Series is an Adaptation that Elevates the Source Material   Adapted from the novel by acclaimed writer Celeste Ng, Little Fires Everywhere is the story of two different worlds (we're talking class difference folks) colliding when a nomadic artist Mia Warren (Kerry Washington) and her daughter (Lexi Underwood) arrive in Shaker Heights, Ohio and meet Elena Richardson (Reese Witherspoon) and her picture perfect family.  In the hands of showrunner (and executive producer) Liz Tigelaar, this adaptation of Little Fires Everywhere masterfully adds depth and contemporary nuance to both the overall story arc and each character.  The writing, directing, and production teams bring it all together with irresistible visuals and perfectly time irreverence.  Questions At Every Turn... What starts as just another a story about two women and their journey as mothers is now moody mystery with a subtly addictive narrative in the hands of actors giving masterful performances. There's emotional complexity, clashes of privilege, angst, and dangerous upheaval. Thus far, the writing and direction seamlessly (despite the varied creators) blends shifting perspectives and dramatic highs and lows together in a way certain to keep attention. To start things off we limited our discussion to topics arising out of episodes one through four respectively. The first four episodes, 'The Spark', 'Seeds and All', 'Seventy Cents', and 'The Spider Web' set the stage for what's shaping out to be an exciting second half. We've got opinions, theories, and serious gratitude for the realness buried in all this glorious mess.  Directors: Lynn Shelton (The Spark, The Spider Web) and Michael Weaver (Seeds and All, Seventy Cents)  Writers: Liz Tigelaar (The Spark), Nancy Won (Seeds), Raamla Mohamed (Seventy Cents), Attica Locke (The Spider Web) New Episodes  Wednesdays on Hulu (Eight Episodes)              Like what you hear?

'Little Fires Everywhere' Finally Realized It's A Coming Out Story

As a stan of Celeste Ng’s novel Little Fires Everywhere, I’d been anxious to watch the Reese Witherspoon-fronted Hulu series. The book tells poignant stories about motherhood and race in the 1990s. But because I’m gay and therefore I watch or read everything through lesbian-colored glasses, I mowed through the pages of Little Fires wondering, when will it get gay?! The short answer is that the book only sort of does. (Light spoilers ahead.) The story centers on two moms with extraordinarily different backgrounds and levels of privilege: Elena Richardson (played by Witherspoon in the Hulu series), a Stepford-esque mother of four who’s both an impeccable housewife and a working journalist, and Mia Warren (Kerry Washington), a nomadic artist and single mother. Elena’s youngest child Izzy is a key part of the poisonous rift that forms between the two mothers. Izzy feels subjugated by her tyrannically straight-laced mother, who wants her to fall in line by dressing feminine and going by her given name, Isabelle. Elena rents the apartment she owns to Mia and her teenage daughter Pearl, and Izzy is at first intrigued by Mia, then obsessed with her. Izzy and Mia are one in the same: artistic, pugnacious, political, angry. Izzy has never had a free-spirited female figure in her life like Mia, and once she does, she realizes it’s ok to be who she is. Mia helps Izzy embrace the parts of herself she’d been asked by her conservative mother to bury (in the book, that was anger, artistry, and tomboyish clothes). I’m telling you, I read this book and thought: A story about an angsty 14-year old girl who loves art, combat boots, backwards baseball caps, and lionizing an older woman as if she’s a goddess among men? This is a story about coming out. But while the book never suggests anything about Izzy’s sexuality, the first three episodes of the Hulu series, which dropped last week, make Izzy’s struggle with her sexuality much more explicit. Just like in the book, I was tipped off immediately to Izzy’s gayness in the Hulu series via her backwards hat and perpetual frown — both inherently lesbian aesthetics. But there’s an additional storyline in the show that wasn’t in the book: In the show, Izzy has recently suffered a falling out with her former BFF April. She confronts April in the school bathroom, asking why they aren't friends anymore. To which April replies, “You know why, freak.” Meanwhile, Izzy’s classmates are bullying her. Someone hangs Ellen DeGeneres’ famed 1997 Time Magazine cover, which reads, “Yep, I’m Gay,” in her locker; everyone at school calls her Ellen as a burn. There’s some sort of rumor brewing about Izzy’s sexuality, one that was started by April. In one particularly heartbreaking moment between mother and daughter, while discussing April and other bullies spreading rumors, Elena tells Izzy that “everybody’s telling a story.” She adds, “If they’re saying something untrue, then you should change the story.” She asks Izzy if the things her bullies are saying is untrue, to which Izzy replies, “of course.” Elena drives the point home: “Then you should change the story.” That conversation leads the vulnerable and confused Izzy to go to the school dance in a girly dress and make out with a boy in front of April. In that moment, we see that April is actually hurt, even jealous — confirming that, yes, Hulu actually gayed Little Fires Everywhere. Something gay went down between Izzy and April, and now Izzy is facing the consequences. It’s always disappointing when a character’s sexuality is erased in the story’s on-screen adaptation. As a DC fan, I felt slighted by the ambiguous to nominally straight depictions of queer comics characters in both Wonder Woman and Birds of Prey. So not only do I feel extremely vindicated knowing that my gay Spidey senses tingled appropriately in Little Fires, but more importantly, I'm thrilled to see that series creator Liz Tigelaar took the leap and turned queer subtext to text — something that still happens infrequently today. And it just works for this show. The metaphor of Izzy’s boiling, repressed, queer anger manifesting in and climaxing in, well, (book spoiler alert) burning down the house that trapped her will be all the more powerful now that a major reason for her angst is explicit.

First, Keeping the Romance Alive with Hart Hanson (creator, Bones), Liz Tigelaar (showrunner, Casual; creator, Life Unexpected), Carter Covington (creator, Faking It), and Jennie Snyder Urman (creator, Jane the Virgin). How do writers keep a show going that's centered around a romance? What pitfalls can that bring, how do they keep an audience caring through the third, fourth, and fifth break upsor even more, after the central couple commits for the long haul, or worse decides to leave the show? Moderated by Jarret Wieselman (Buzzfeed). Then, Jarret is joined by Carina MacKenzie (The Originals) to talk about Young Adult TV with Tigelaar, Covington, Anna Fricke (developer, Being Human), and Rebecca Serle (Famous in Love). The creators of these teen centered TV shows discuss what they believe classifies a show as YA, what storylines they will and will not broach when it comes to this age range, and how they have mastered writing from the teenage perspective while garnering audiences of all ages.
