"content": "\u003cp>It was the night of the small-screen giants. And none stood taller at the 2016 Emmys than the HBO juggernauts \u003cem>Game of Thrones\u003c/em> and \u003cem>Veep\u003c/em>, which won for best drama and comedy series, respectively. \u003cem>The People v. O.J. Simpson\u003c/em> also won the Emmy for outstanding limited series.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Game of Thrones\u003c/em> and \u003cem>VEEP\u003c/em> may have pulled off repeat wins at Sunday’s Emmy Awards, but there was also plenty of room for fresh faces in the winner’s circle.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>First-time nominee Rami Malek won best drama actor for his role as on USA’s \u003cem>Mr. Robot\u003c/em> as delusional hacker Elliot Alderson. “Please tell me you’re seeing this, too,” Malek quipped before noting there was probably a bit of the alienated Alderson in all of us.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp> \u003ca class=\"twitter-timeline\" href=\"https://twitter.com/search?q=%23NPREmmys%20from%3Anpr%20OR%20from%3Adeggans%20OR%20from%3Anprmonkeysee%20OR%20from%3Aghweldon%20OR%20from%3Aninaberries%20OR%20from%3Aidislikestephen\" data-widget-id=\"777937030898520064\">Tweets about #NPREmmys from:npr OR from:deggans OR from:nprmonkeysee OR from:ghweldon OR from:ninaberries OR from:idislikestephen\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\n \u003cscript>!function(d,s,id){var js,fjs=d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0],p=/^http:/.test(d.location)?'http':'https';if(!d.getElementById(id)){js=d.createElement(s);js.id=id;js.src=p+\"://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js\";fjs.parentNode.insertBefore(js,fjs);}}(document,\"script\",\"twitter-wjs\");\u003c/script>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Tatiana Maslany, who plays several different clones of the same woman on the sci-fi series \u003cem>Orphan Black\u003c/em>, was a surprise winner as best drama actress; fans of the show often complained in its early years that her acting achievements weren’t recognized by the Emmys.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The comedy categories were a bit more predictable. \u003cem>VEEP\u003c/em> star Julia Louis-Dreyfus earned her fifth consecutive Emmy as best comedy actress – her seventh Emmy as a performer, in total – equaling the total by Mary Tyler Moore and Allison Janney. She choked up while accepting her award, dedicating it to her father, who she said had passed away on Friday.\u003cem> \u003cbr>\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Transparent \u003c/em>star Jeffrey Tambor was named best actor in a comedy; his second consecutive Emmy win. Tambor used his acceptance speech to advocate that the producers and TV executives in the room hire more transgender performers to play transgender characters.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Please give transgender talent a chance,” said Tambor, who is himself a non-transgender actor playing a transgender character. “I would not be unhappy were I the last cisgender male to play a female transgender on television.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Host Jimmy Kimmel even managed a joke about how the dark and often dramatic \u003cem>Transparent \u003c/em>wound up competing in the Emmys as a comedy, noting the show “was born as a drama, but it identifies as a comedy.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Kimmel proved a nimble and snarky host, tweaking GOP presidential candidate (and former \u003cem>Celebrity Apprentice\u003c/em> star) Donald Trump as a creation of reality TV and starting the awards with a pre-taped comedy bit that included former GOP candidate Jeb Bush playing a limo driver. The comic handed out peanut butter and jelly sandwiches to the crowd and drew gasps by having the show’s announcer note that the next presenter would be Bill Cosby, now facing trial on sexual assault charges.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“He’s not really here,” Kimmel joked, walking onstage after the camera had shown several shocked celebrities in the audience. “I just wanted to see what you guys would do.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>FX’s \u003cem>People v O.J. Simpson: American Crime Story\u003c/em> ruled much of the limited series category, with big wins for Sarah Paulson, Sterling K. Brown and Courtney B. Vance, who played Simpson prosecutors Marcia Clark and Chris Darden and Simpson defense attorney Johnnie Cochrane, respectively.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Paulson even apologized during her acceptance speech for originally joining the world back during the time of the Simpson trial in adopting a “superficial” opinion of Clark, who attended the Emmys Sunday with the actress.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On the heels of continued debate about diversity in Hollywood, the Emmy awards honored a wide variety of performers, writers, directors and producers. Key wins for people of color and women included: \u003cem>Master of None\u003c/em>‘s Aziz Ansari and Alan Yang (writing in a comedy series), \u003cem>Transparent\u003c/em>‘s Jill Soloway (directing, comedy series), \u003cem>Key & Peele\u003c/em> (variety sketch series), \u003cem>American Crime\u003c/em>‘s Regina King (supporting actress, limited series). Such diversity ensured organizers never had to worry about a hashtag like #EmmysSoWhite trending.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The show even concluded at its scheduled time, with no extra padding. It added up to an Emmycast which deftly honored longtime achievers while shining a spotlight on new talents, delivering an awards show worthy of TV’s current Golden Age.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>NPR’s TV critic, Eric Deggans, along with Glen Weldon and Linda Holmes of \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/blogs/monkeysee/\">Monkey See\u003c/a>, offered commentary on the show in real time.

Jeb Bush, who floundered in the presidential primary, came back Sunday night as an Uber driver to host Jimmy Kimmel (\"I'm in between jobs right now,\" Bush says). The scene was part of Kimmel's opening monologue in which he's trying to get to the ceremony. Bush picks him up, then kicks him out of the car and speeds off, poking fun at the negativity of the race along the way:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>Bush: Are you nominated?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Kimmel: I am, yeah.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Bush: Wow, what's that like?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Kimmel: It's nice, it's nice.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Bush: You think you can win?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Kimmel: There's a lot of competition.

"content": "\u003cp>\u003cem>Hi there! You might remember me from \u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/pop/tag/downton-abbey/\">Downton Abbey recaps\u003c/a> of yore. Since that show wrapped, I've felt a void in my spirit that can only be filled by PBS-approved British imports. So I'm going to try falling in love again; this time, with a show called Poldark that a bunch of you are supposedly crazy about. I have to be honest, I was skeptical at first. But my doubt was no match for \u003ca href=\"http://i2.mirror.co.uk/incoming/article5383476.ece/ALTERNATES/s1200/Poldark-star-Aidan-Turner-getting-the-brush-off-from-a-crew-member.jpg\">this photo\u003c/a> so here I am, recapping season 1, in anticipation of the imminent second season. I hope you'll join me. Let's do this...\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The series starts with a shot of leaves. No dog butt, no bell tolling, no slowly falling rose petal, no feather duster flirting with a chandelier. It's only been 3 seconds, but watching \u003cem>Poldark\u003c/em> already feels like dating too soon after a breakup. You just can't help comparing the new person to your ex. But I will push through because \u003cem>Downton\u003c/em> and I are never ever getting back together (unless those film spin-off rumors end up being true).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Anyway, where was I? Ah, yes, leaves. A bunch of British soldiers are kicking it in the woods of Virginia in 1781. The hottest one is named Ross Poldark. He's gambling because killing people can get boring after a while. His friend wants Ross to bet his pinky ring. Ross refuses because he's mad his friend brought up the fact that he's wearing a pinky ring.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Some killjoy emerges to complain about Ross' gambling ways and his lack of excitement about the war. Ross laughs because that's what he does to nerds. Apparently, Ross is only here because he was avoiding punishment for a laundry list of bad boy activities, mainly punching people in the face.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Killjoy continues complaining... until he gets shot! The gang of Britain-haters hiding in the bushes apparently don't like nerds either. Everyone freaks out and Ross grabs a gun and yells at his friend, \"Do you want to leave here or die here?!?\" Um, leave, most likely? Because Ross was preoccupied with asking useless rhetorical questions, one of the attackers gets the chance to knock him out.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Flashback to some girl who's running along a cliff back home. We'll call her Pinky Ring. She giggles because this is her first relationship and she has no idea how wack long-distance relationships are.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Back in America, Ross is unconscious, surrounded by dead people.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Two years later in Cornwall (okay, we're not wasting any time here!), Ross is napping in a horse-drawn coach, while strangers talk sh*t about him very loudly. \u003cem>He was declared dead and yet here he is, wearing that pinky ring as ever. Better off dead, if you ask me, because his family's credit score sucks. Also, his dad is totally dead.\u003c/em> Ross stops pretending to be asleep and is like \u003cem>Wait, what?!\u003c/em> The rude gossipers are like \u003cem>Oops, didn't realize you could hear us! Our b! And yeah, your dad is totally dead.\u003c/em> Kill them, Ross. You're a war hero. No one will mind.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One of the strangers asks how the war was. Ross is like:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/pop/wp-content/uploads/sites/12/2016/08/latrice-really-gif.gif\">\u003cimg class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-33552\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/pop/wp-content/uploads/sites/12/2016/08/latrice-really-gif.gif\" alt=\"latrice really gif\" width=\"494\" height=\"266\">\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On a list of things not to ask people who barely survived a war, this ranks somewhere in the neighborhood of \u003cem>How many friends did you have to watch die?\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ross asks to be let out because wouldn't you? All the rude strangers remind him that his house is further down. And Ross reminds them that his father is apparently super dead and won't be there. The strangers think to themselves, \u003cem>If we stay very, very still, maybe he will forget we're here?\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/pop/wp-content/uploads/sites/12/2016/08/homer-simpson-bush-gif.gif\">\u003cimg class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-33558\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/pop/wp-content/uploads/sites/12/2016/08/homer-simpson-bush-gif.gif\" alt=\"homer-simpson-bush-gif\" width=\"320\" height=\"240\">\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ross ditches them and walks to what looks like the edge of the Earth. The sky mingles with the mist of crashing waves and it's a damn shame Instagram will take another 240 years to be invented because Ross would get soooo many likes for this vista.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Our favorite bad boy gets over his could've-been social media fame and makes his way over to his uncle's mansion. Inside, everyone is basically having a seated rave. Dead Ross and his dead daddy who? No one is the least bit bothered. Least of all, Pinky Ring, who is kicking it with a new dude, who tells her he likes her just the way she is. Nice try, buddy, but Colin Firth \u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oZu2JfM2Aq8\">already used that line\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The door opens and a girl who is too much like Daisy from \u003cem>Downton\u003c/em> not to be her great great grandmother or something gets excited. Her dad tells her she shouldn't even dream about gentlemen callers. She will instead pour him his wine and serve him his weird British food forevermore cause the patriarchy is strong and she won't have any rights for... well, the rest of her life.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The visitor turns out to be none other than Ross, back from the dead! Only Daisy's great great grandmother and Pinky Ring's new man, who turns out to be Ross' cousin (et tu, Brute?), get up to greet a man everyone thought they'd never see again. That's cool, everyone; stay seated. This isn't a miracle or anything.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Girlfriend-stealing cousin tells Ross that he and Pinky Ring were very worried about him. Mmhmmm, suuuure.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Puppy-in-love Ross doesn't sniff out all the weirdness and instead thinks: \u003cem>Pinky Ring! You're here! Yay! What a coinkidink! I'm so excited to make out with you!\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Before he gets the chance, Pinky Ring's mom takes a page out of the stage-coach strangers' book of zero manners. \"Do tell us how we managed to lose the war.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/pop/wp-content/uploads/sites/12/2016/08/murder-she-wrote-wtf-gif.gif\">\u003cimg class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-33554\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/pop/wp-content/uploads/sites/12/2016/08/murder-she-wrote-wtf-gif.gif\" alt=\"murder she wrote wtf gif\" width=\"245\" height=\"170\">\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ross brushes her rude prompt off 'cause, after years upon years abroad, he's gonna get some tonight! Not so fast, says everyone. \u003cem>Pinky Ring is marrying your cousin! Isn't that exciting?!\u003c/em> Ross' entire FML demeanor seems to suggest: No, that is not exciting.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ross' uncle adds to the despair 'cause why not: \u003cem>P.S. Your dad left you basically nothing and Cornwall is poorer than ever. Welcome home, I guess!\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ross decides these people are gross and that he wants to be alone (#introvertsgonnaintrovert). But before he goes, he proposes a toast to the happy couple that ruined his life and didn't even apologize for it. Everyone feels first-day-of-school-after-a-summer-of-puberty awkward.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cimg class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-33553\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/pop/wp-content/uploads/sites/12/2016/08/britney-awkward-gif.gif\" alt=\"britney awkward gif\" width=\"500\" height=\"280\">\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ross passes several Instagram opportunities on his way to his father's house. When he gets there, everything is in ruin. Rats and hens are running things now. Ross walks upstairs to find two snoring lumps in his dad's bed. He considers setting them on fire because it's just one of them days, but he opts for throwing a pail of cold water on them.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>They're his father's good-for-nothing servants (picture any person you've ever seen on \u003cem>Hoarders\u003c/em> and multiply that person by two). Ross accuses them of starting the rumor that he was dead and threatens to hit them with the side of his foot. Go off, Ross! You've earned a good freak out.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Back at the uncle's house, Backstabber Cousin, some old lady and Daisy: The Prequel talk about how the Pinky Ring wedding should probably be moved up. \u003cem>Did y'all see Ross' curls?? I didn't remember them being so bouncy! Yeah, you need to lock that girl down before she realizes you're a 4 to Ross' 10.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The next day, Ross goes to visit some of his buddies/tenants. Because this entire part of the country has no idea how to small talk without saying triggering things, someone asks Ross how the war was. HOW DO YOU THINK IT WAS, A-HOLE?! Another asks, What happened out there? SIGH.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Elsewhere in the region, Pinky Ring is sitting on a bench thinking\u003cem> I forgot just how bouncy Ross' curls are! \u003c/em>She hears the distant sound of hoofs and gets butterflies in her stomach.\u003cem> OMG, here's the part where he asks me to run away with him and I say I can't but almost kiss him anyway and then lead him on for months and months and months before settling for his cousin after all! \u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A servant comes and announces Poldark. Pinky Ring turns and -- boom! -- it's his cousin because THEY HAVE THE SAME LAST NAME, which really drives the point home that what she's doing is really gross. There were no other men around who flaked on the war?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In town, a lawyer reminds Ross for the 324th time that he's broke.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In a manor, a former classmate and his bewigged uncle talk about manipulating Ross to their advantage. Geez, no wonder Ben Franklin and co. seceded. Everyone in England is apparently awful.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Back at Pinky Ring's house, Pinky Ring picks up her skirts and gets ready to run to wherever Ross is because Backstabber Cousin just isn't cute enough, his title be damned. Pinky Ring's mother pops out of a bush just in time to catch her and say, \u003cem>Actually, his title be NOT damned\u003c/em>. Pinky Ring is like, \u003cem>Moooooom\u003c/em>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In a field, Ross gallops upon his lazy servants who look like this:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/pop/wp-content/uploads/sites/12/2016/09/a23abb12a709450e5a07af2859079d8d.jpg\">\u003cimg class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-35943\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/pop/wp-content/uploads/sites/12/2016/09/a23abb12a709450e5a07af2859079d8d.jpg\" alt=\"a23abb12a709450e5a07af2859079d8d\" width=\"219\" height=\"329\">\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He tells Mr. and Mrs. Pigpen that they're actually going to have to help him turn things around if they don't want to die of starvation. They're like, \u003cem>Mooooooom\u003c/em>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Up gallops, Daisy: The Prequel, who is like \u003cem>Girl, let's dish!\u003c/em> Ross is like,\u003cem> I'm kind of busy thinking of how I can climb out of poverty, but ok, sure. \u003c/em>D.T.P. calls out how weird it was for Pinky Ring to all of a sudden pounce on Backstabber Cousin (his name is apparently Francis and I'll maybe consider using it after I stop being pissed at him). Ross thinks she's in it for the cash and proceeds to sing selections from Kanye West's \"Gold Digger.\" Daisy informs Ross that their wedding is in two weeks, tosses him a \"sorry, bro\" and one of these: \u003cspan style=\"font-size: 22px;font-weight: bold;line-height: 1.09091\">¯\\_(ツ)_/¯\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Later, Ross moves heavy rocks around and uses a hammer very aggressively. His shirt stays on.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The following day, Backstabber Cousin sneaks up on Pinky Ring, who seems to be perpetually on a stroll in her backyard. He gives a sad little speech that boils down to: \u003cem>Hey, girl. I know I'm boring and not cute and understand if you want to call this off to be with my interesting and very cute cousin. Is there something you wish to tell me?\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/pop/wp-content/uploads/sites/12/2016/09/THISGONBGUD.gif\">\u003cimg class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-35948\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/pop/wp-content/uploads/sites/12/2016/09/THISGONBGUD.gif\" alt=\"THISGONBGUD\" width=\"350\" height=\"191\">\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Go ahead, Pinky Ring!

Nice knowing ya, Pinky Ring. Enjoy watching paint dry for the rest of your life.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Later, Backstabber Cousin gets all dolled up, puts on a top hat and gallops up to Ross, who is laboring with not only a shirt on, but a vest too. Backstabber Cousin says Ross' dad wouldn't want him working in the muck like that. Ross tries not to murder him.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But maybe he will because they end up venturing into a dilapidated mine together. Backstabber Cousin brings up how Ross should probably leave town, but not before attending his wedding. He then proceeds to go into detail about how one thing led to another with Pinky Ring, prompting Ross to yell MUST YOU RUB MY NOSE IN IT!!! so loudly that Backstabber Cousin falls into a very random, very deep puddle.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He apparently can't swim and Ross is unbothered.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/pop/wp-content/uploads/sites/12/2016/09/azc2u1jpg.gif-c200.gif\">\u003cimg class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-35963\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/pop/wp-content/uploads/sites/12/2016/09/azc2u1jpg.gif-c200.gif\" alt=\"mindy kaling whatever loser the office gif\" width=\"200\" height=\"200\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/12/2016/09/azc2u1jpg.gif-c200.gif 200w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/12/2016/09/azc2u1jpg.gif-c200-32x32.gif 32w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/12/2016/09/azc2u1jpg.gif-c200-50x50.gif 50w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/12/2016/09/azc2u1jpg.gif-c200-64x64.gif 64w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/12/2016/09/azc2u1jpg.gif-c200-96x96.gif 96w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/12/2016/09/azc2u1jpg.gif-c200-128x128.gif 128w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/12/2016/09/azc2u1jpg.gif-c200-150x150.gif 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 200px) 100vw, 200px\">\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>After a nice, luxurious pause, Ross eventually saves him and immediately disses him for not knowing how to swim. His cousin shares that he thought Ross was going to let him drown. Ross shares that he strongly considered it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Two weeks later, Ross stands grumpy and in all of his FML glory in the back of a church as Backstabber Cousin and Pinky Ring say \"I do.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At the after party, up-to-something former classmate and his uncle are loudly talking sh*t about how the Poldarks are impoverished losers.

Girl, are you serious? Apparently, she is because she goes on to make excuses for why he's currently dying inside at his cousin's wedding. And she wants him to commit to being her friend. Nooooope.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Before things get any sloppier and more brutal, her mom waltzes in and says, \u003cem>Ooo, I'm telling Backstabber Cousin\u003c/em>, who promptly shows up and actually says, \"May I claim my bride, Ross?\" Ross is like, \u003cem>By all means\u003c/em>, and hums Kanye's \"Gold Digger\" some more.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That night, the old lady who sometimes hangs out with Daisy: The Prequel is being really hipster and reading tarot cards. Prognosis: All is fair in love and war (i.e. sorry, Ross). Across town, Ross is getting plastered and throws his pinky ring. Be gone, wack accessory!\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The next day, Ross' uncle shows up to kick him while he's down. He reminds him of the state of things:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Estate: In Debt.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Servants: Wastrels.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Mines: Derelict.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Land: Barren.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Father: Dead.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And suggests Ross move his hot bod far, far away from Pinky Ring. He'll even finance the move. You know you're boring and ugly when your dad has to pay cooler, better looking people to scram.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The next day is a market day, which means that all the horrible, dirty people of Cornwall gather in one place to sell things, buy things and convince anyone living in 2016 that there's nothing about the 18th century worth being nostalgic for. No time machine needed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ross sells his dead dad's pocket watch and buys a cow. The village people (not to be confused with the fun '70s gay group) want to get the party started so they do what any awful 18th century person would do: throw a cute, shy puppy into a vicious dog fight. The cute, shy puppy's owner is like OH HELL NO and throws herself into the mix. The village people assault her because again everyone in this place and time is awful.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ross, the only decent person (other than Daisy: The Prequel and maybe the tarot-reading granny) steps in and is like \u003cem>Not on my watch! Uhhh, the metaphorical one, not the real one I just sold. Oh, you know what I mean!\u003c/em> A townie decides \u003cem>Hey, this is a great time to make a huge mistake\u003c/em> and gets in Ross' face. An amorphous \u003cem>Mortal Kombat\u003c/em> voice yells out FINISH HIM! and Ross abides by brutally smacking the townie right in the face with his walking stick.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Later, inside a pub, where a completely different dog is sitting on a bench in front of beer like a real human drunk, Ross buys food for cute, shy puppy owner. Turns out her name is Demelza. She has six brothers and a father. They all are terrible bros and beat her every day.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Before Ross can even take that all in, Pinky Ring barges in to say she thinks Ross did the right thing. He doesn't need your approval! Go find your boring husband! Oh, but she doesn't have to bother finding him because Backstabber Cousin pops in to make sure his wife isn't having sex with his hot cousin. And because this parade of a-holes isn't robust enough, Malfoy shows up to talk some smack and then plot with his uncle in the next room. He uses the word 'impecunious' to make sure we all know he got a very admirable score on his SAT verbal.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ross and Demelza share a horse on the way home because the HOV lane is always faster. She's singing under her breath, probably something from the new Britney album, which is really quite good. As they're about to part ways, Ross thinks of her family of abusive bros and offers her a job as a kitchen maid. She's down if cute, shy puppy can come too.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When they get home, Mr. and Mrs. Pigpen are pissed because they don't want to share their mac and cheese or whatever people ate back then. Ross tells them to chill out, while casually washing the lice out of Demelza's hair.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/pop/wp-content/uploads/sites/12/2016/09/tumblr_noogenkh0F1qk08n1o1_500.gif\">\u003cimg class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-36233\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/pop/wp-content/uploads/sites/12/2016/09/tumblr_noogenkh0F1qk08n1o1_500.gif\" alt=\"real housewives gross gif\" width=\"500\" height=\"280\">\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Mr. Pigpen makes Demelza feel welcome by threatening to beat her up. The list of people who deserve to die on this show is getting really long. It might be easier to make a list of people who \u003cem>don't\u003c/em> deserve to die.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ross' uncle, the least subtle man alive, sends along a bunch of cash that says \u003cem>JUST MOVE ALREADY!!\u003c/em> and \u003cem>WHY COULDN'T YOU STAY DEAD?!\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ross asks Demelza if the Pigpens are being nice. She's like \u003cem>We're in 18th century Cornwall, the most miserable place ever to exist, what do you think?\u003c/em> He recommends that she lean in.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Despite Ross' No Dogs in the House rule (he's more of a cat person), Demelza sneaks cute, shy puppy inside and spoons him all night long.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The next day, Ross goes to his uncle's house to say:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/pop/wp-content/uploads/sites/12/2016/09/anigif_enhanced-4773-1430938663-26.gif\">\u003cimg class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-36234\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/pop/wp-content/uploads/sites/12/2016/09/anigif_enhanced-4773-1430938663-26.gif\" alt=\"get off my jock gif bethenny\" width=\"500\" height=\"280\">\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Uncle isn't home, but Pinky Ring is (ugh, this again). She tries to bait him into some emotional exchange, but he's not biting. She brings up how not everyone liked how he intervened to save Demelza from the crowd. And how not everyone will like how he is now employing her. And how she wishes they could be friends. Ross responds with exactly what's on my mind: \"Good God, Elizabeth.\" (Yeah, Pinky Ring has a name, believe it or not.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>They bicker next to a harp. Did she not mean those things she said before he left for the war? She thought he was dead! Does she not still have the hots for him? She can't say because she's married! And round and round they go, just like your friend (everyone has this friend) who can't stop texting their ex and complains about all the drama, while secretly luxuriating in it all. Enough is enough, Ross and Pinky Ring. MOVE ON.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Pinky Ring eventually asks him to move away and leave her alone. Ross screams, \u003cem>Fine!\u003c/em> As he's riding off, drama addict Pinky Ring runs outside to ask if they can be friends. Make up your mind! Ross blasts Taylor Swift's \"We Are Never Ever Ever Getting Back Together\" from his horse's speaker system and rides away.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ross returns home and tells Mrs. Pigpen that he's moving to London because everyone in Cornwall sucks. She's like \u003cem>Oh, you haven't seen nothing yet! Demelza's sucky family is here. \u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Demelza's dad and two of his friends are ready to throw down. They don't care if their teeth get knocked out because they're already black with decay and falling out anyway. And thanks to the Bro Signal they sent up into the sky earlier, more mouth breathers are on their way to murder Ross. Bros hunt in packs, after all.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Intense violins play as Demelza's dad and co. head-butt and uppercut Ross all over the place for several minutes. They even stomp on his beautiful head! Not the money-maker! Outside, Mr. Pigpen and the tenants battle a mob of bros. Someone gets kicked in the nuts so hard that there will be no heirs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://twitter.com/xcusemybeauty/status/775051320914874368\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Mrs. Pigpen runs to Ross' uncle's house, yelling \"They be killin' Mr. Ross!!\" Pinky Ring wants Backstabber Cousin to go help, but he knows he'll just get a deadly wedgie or get his head flushed so he stays put with a look of fake concern on his face. Uncle says Mrs. Pigpen is exaggerating and slams the door on her, hoping Ross dies for real this time.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Despite all the skull stomping, Ross gets a second wind and beats up Demelza's dad. Ross and the bros eventually come to a truce and Ross celebrates being alive and finally having some alone time by guzzling wine (18th century hotties! They're just like us!).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Across town, Pinky Ring is kicking back with a good book 'cause that's what people do when the love of their life is in the process of being murdered. She overhears Backstabber Cousin and Uncle talking about the plan to get Ross to move away. You are who you hang out with, Pinky Ring.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On the road, Ross meets up with the tenants and Mr. Pigpen, who are on a high after an afternoon of nut-cracking (see tweet above). They vow to always have his back. *adds these dudes to my People Who Don't Deserve to Die list*\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Back at Uncle's house, Backstabber Cousin almost dies from being dissed really hard by his own father:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Backstabber Cousin:\u003c/strong> \"I don't like it, father.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Uncle:\u003c/strong> \"You'd like it less if you lost your wife.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Backstabber Cousin:\u003c/strong> \"Assuming I can't keep her myself!\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Uncle:\u003c/strong> \"Can you?\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/pop/wp-content/uploads/sites/12/2016/09/giphy-2.gif\">\u003cimg class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-36370\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/pop/wp-content/uploads/sites/12/2016/09/giphy-2.gif\" alt=\"shade gif\" width=\"350\" height=\"250\">\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ross finds Demelza roaming the moors and is in the process of bringing her home, when Pinky Ring rides up on a white horse.

You might remember me from \u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/pop/tag/downton-abbey/\">Downton Abbey recaps\u003c/a> of yore. Since that show wrapped, I've felt a void in my spirit that can only be filled by PBS-approved British imports. So I'm going to try falling in love again; this time, with a show called Poldark that a bunch of you are supposedly crazy about. I have to be honest, I was skeptical at first. But my doubt was no match for \u003ca href=\"http://i2.mirror.co.uk/incoming/article5383476.ece/ALTERNATES/s1200/Poldark-star-Aidan-Turner-getting-the-brush-off-from-a-crew-member.jpg\">this photo\u003c/a> so here I am, recapping season 1, in anticipation of the imminent second season. I hope you'll join me. Let's do this...\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The series starts with a shot of leaves. No dog butt, no bell tolling, no slowly falling rose petal, no feather duster flirting with a chandelier. It's only been 3 seconds, but watching \u003cem>Poldark\u003c/em> already feels like dating too soon after a breakup. You just can't help comparing the new person to your ex. But I will push through because \u003cem>Downton\u003c/em> and I are never ever getting back together (unless those film spin-off rumors end up being true).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Anyway, where was I? Ah, yes, leaves. A bunch of British soldiers are kicking it in the woods of Virginia in 1781. The hottest one is named Ross Poldark. He's gambling because killing people can get boring after a while. His friend wants Ross to bet his pinky ring. Ross refuses because he's mad his friend brought up the fact that he's wearing a pinky ring.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Some killjoy emerges to complain about Ross' gambling ways and his lack of excitement about the war. Ross laughs because that's what he does to nerds. Apparently, Ross is only here because he was avoiding punishment for a laundry list of bad boy activities, mainly punching people in the face.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Killjoy continues complaining... until he gets shot! The gang of Britain-haters hiding in the bushes apparently don't like nerds either. Everyone freaks out and Ross grabs a gun and yells at his friend, \"Do you want to leave here or die here?!?\" Um, leave, most likely? Because Ross was preoccupied with asking useless rhetorical questions, one of the attackers gets the chance to knock him out.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Inside, everyone is basically having a seated rave. Dead Ross and his dead daddy who? No one is the least bit bothered. Least of all, Pinky Ring, who is kicking it with a new dude, who tells her he likes her just the way she is. Nice try, buddy, but Colin Firth \u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oZu2JfM2Aq8\">already used that line\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The door opens and a girl who is too much like Daisy from \u003cem>Downton\u003c/em> not to be her great great grandmother or something gets excited.

When he gets there, everything is in ruin. Rats and hens are running things now. Ross walks upstairs to find two snoring lumps in his dad's bed. He considers setting them on fire because it's just one of them days, but he opts for throwing a pail of cold water on them.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>They're his father's good-for-nothing servants (picture any person you've ever seen on \u003cem>Hoarders\u003c/em> and multiply that person by two).

You've earned a good freak out.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Back at the uncle's house, Backstabber Cousin, some old lady and Daisy: The Prequel talk about how the Pinky Ring wedding should probably be moved up. \u003cem>Did y'all see Ross' curls?? I didn't remember them being so bouncy! Yeah, you need to lock that girl down before she realizes you're a 4 to Ross' 10.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The next day, Ross goes to visit some of his buddies/tenants. Because this entire part of the country has no idea how to small talk without saying triggering things, someone asks Ross how the war was. HOW DO YOU THINK IT WAS, A-HOLE?! Another asks, What happened out there? SIGH.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Elsewhere in the region, Pinky Ring is sitting on a bench thinking\u003cem> I forgot just how bouncy Ross' curls are! \u003c/em>She hears the distant sound of hoofs and gets butterflies in her stomach.\u003cem> OMG, here's the part where he asks me to run away with him and I say I can't but almost kiss him anyway and then lead him on for months and months and months before settling for his cousin after all! \u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A servant comes and announces Poldark. Pinky Ring turns and -- boom! -- it's his cousin because THEY HAVE THE SAME LAST NAME, which really drives the point home that what she's doing is really gross. There were no other men around who flaked on the war?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In town, a lawyer reminds Ross for the 324th time that he's broke.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In a manor, a former classmate and his bewigged uncle talk about manipulating Ross to their advantage. Geez, no wonder Ben Franklin and co. seceded. Everyone in England is apparently awful.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Back at Pinky Ring's house, Pinky Ring picks up her skirts and gets ready to run to wherever Ross is because Backstabber Cousin just isn't cute enough, his title be damned. Pinky Ring's mother pops out of a bush just in time to catch her and say, \u003cem>Actually, his title be NOT damned\u003c/em>. Pinky Ring is like, \u003cem>Moooooom\u003c/em>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In a field, Ross gallops upon his lazy servants who look like this:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/pop/wp-content/uploads/sites/12/2016/09/a23abb12a709450e5a07af2859079d8d.jpg\">\u003cimg class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-35943\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/pop/wp-content/uploads/sites/12/2016/09/a23abb12a709450e5a07af2859079d8d.jpg\" alt=\"a23abb12a709450e5a07af2859079d8d\" width=\"219\" height=\"329\">\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He tells Mr. and Mrs. Pigpen that they're actually going to have to help him turn things around if they don't want to die of starvation.

Ross thinks she's in it for the cash and proceeds to sing selections from Kanye West's \"Gold Digger.\" Daisy informs Ross that their wedding is in two weeks, tosses him a \"sorry, bro\" and one of these: \u003cspan style=\"font-size: 22px;font-weight: bold;line-height: 1.09091\">¯\\_(ツ)_/¯\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Later, Ross moves heavy rocks around and uses a hammer very aggressively. His shirt stays on.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The following day, Backstabber Cousin sneaks up on Pinky Ring, who seems to be perpetually on a stroll in her backyard. He gives a sad little speech that boils down to: \u003cem>Hey, girl. I know I'm boring and not cute and understand if you want to call this off to be with my interesting and very cute cousin.

Ross tries not to murder him.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But maybe he will because they end up venturing into a dilapidated mine together. Backstabber Cousin brings up how Ross should probably leave town, but not before attending his wedding.

Girl, are you serious? Apparently, she is because she goes on to make excuses for why he's currently dying inside at his cousin's wedding. And she wants him to commit to being her friend. Nooooope.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Before things get any sloppier and more brutal, her mom waltzes in and says, \u003cem>Ooo, I'm telling Backstabber Cousin\u003c/em>, who promptly shows up and actually says, \"May I claim my bride, Ross?\" Ross is like, \u003cem>By all means\u003c/em>, and hums Kanye's \"Gold Digger\" some more.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That night, the old lady who sometimes hangs out with Daisy: The Prequel is being really hipster and reading tarot cards. Prognosis: All is fair in love and war (i.e. sorry, Ross). Across town, Ross is getting plastered and throws his pinky ring. Be gone, wack accessory!\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The next day, Ross' uncle shows up to kick him while he's down.

He'll even finance the move. You know you're boring and ugly when your dad has to pay cooler, better looking people to scram.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The next day is a market day, which means that all the horrible, dirty people of Cornwall gather in one place to sell things, buy things and convince anyone living in 2016 that there's nothing about the 18th century worth being nostalgic for. No time machine needed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ross sells his dead dad's pocket watch and buys a cow. The village people (not to be confused with the fun '70s gay group) want to get the party started so they do what any awful 18th century person would do: throw a cute, shy puppy into a vicious dog fight. The cute, shy puppy's owner is like OH HELL NO and throws herself into the mix. The village people assault her because again everyone in this place and time is awful.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ross, the only decent person (other than Daisy: The Prequel and maybe the tarot-reading granny) steps in and is like \u003cem>Not on my watch! Uhhh, the metaphorical one, not the real one I just sold. Oh, you know what I mean!\u003c/em> A townie decides \u003cem>Hey, this is a great time to make a huge mistake\u003c/em> and gets in Ross' face. An amorphous \u003cem>Mortal Kombat\u003c/em> voice yells out FINISH HIM! and Ross abides by brutally smacking the townie right in the face with his walking stick.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Later, inside a pub, where a completely different dog is sitting on a bench in front of beer like a real human drunk, Ross buys food for cute, shy puppy owner. Turns out her name is Demelza. She has six brothers and a father. They all are terrible bros and beat her every day.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Before Ross can even take that all in, Pinky Ring barges in to say she thinks Ross did the right thing. He doesn't need your approval! Go find your boring husband! Oh, but she doesn't have to bother finding him because Backstabber Cousin pops in to make sure his wife isn't having sex with his hot cousin. And because this parade of a-holes isn't robust enough, Malfoy shows up to talk some smack and then plot with his uncle in the next room. He uses the word 'impecunious' to make sure we all know he got a very admirable score on his SAT verbal.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ross and Demelza share a horse on the way home because the HOV lane is always faster. She's singing under her breath, probably something from the new Britney album, which is really quite good. As they're about to part ways, Ross thinks of her family of abusive bros and offers her a job as a kitchen maid. She's down if cute, shy puppy can come too.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When they get home, Mr. and Mrs. Pigpen are pissed because they don't want to share their mac and cheese or whatever people ate back then. Ross tells them to chill out, while casually washing the lice out of Demelza's hair.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/pop/wp-content/uploads/sites/12/2016/09/tumblr_noogenkh0F1qk08n1o1_500.gif\">\u003cimg class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-36233\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/pop/wp-content/uploads/sites/12/2016/09/tumblr_noogenkh0F1qk08n1o1_500.gif\" alt=\"real housewives gross gif\" width=\"500\" height=\"280\">\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Mr. Pigpen makes Demelza feel welcome by threatening to beat her up.

She tries to bait him into some emotional exchange, but he's not biting. She brings up how not everyone liked how he intervened to save Demelza from the crowd. And how not everyone will like how he is now employing her. And how she wishes they could be friends. Ross responds with exactly what's on my mind: \"Good God, Elizabeth.\" (Yeah, Pinky Ring has a name, believe it or not.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>They bicker next to a harp. Did she not mean those things she said before he left for the war? She thought he was dead! Does she not still have the hots for him? She can't say because she's married! And round and round they go, just like your friend (everyone has this friend) who can't stop texting their ex and complains about all the drama, while secretly luxuriating in it all. Enough is enough, Ross and Pinky Ring. MOVE ON.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Pinky Ring eventually asks him to move away and leave her alone. Ross screams, \u003cem>Fine!\u003c/em> As he's riding off, drama addict Pinky Ring runs outside to ask if they can be friends. Make up your mind! Ross blasts Taylor Swift's \"We Are Never Ever Ever Getting Back Together\" from his horse's speaker system and rides away.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ross returns home and tells Mrs. Pigpen that he's moving to London because everyone in Cornwall sucks. She's like \u003cem>Oh, you haven't seen nothing yet! Demelza's sucky family is here. \u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Demelza's dad and two of his friends are ready to throw down. They don't care if their teeth get knocked out because they're already black with decay and falling out anyway. And thanks to the Bro Signal they sent up into the sky earlier, more mouth breathers are on their way to murder Ross. Bros hunt in packs, after all.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Intense violins play as Demelza's dad and co. head-butt and uppercut Ross all over the place for several minutes. They even stomp on his beautiful head! Not the money-maker! Outside, Mr. Pigpen and the tenants battle a mob of bros.

It's hard not to. The school uniforms are still there. And one girl has hair sticks. But these \"Harajuku\" girls, with their long legs, tiny waists, big boots and oversized, made-up eyes, more closely resemble \u003ca href=\"http://www.toysrus.com/graphics/product_images/pTRU1-20937459enh-z6.jpg\">Bratz\u003c/a> dolls (a brand frequently criticized for marketing overly-sexualized female body ideals to tweens) than anything related to \u003ca href=\"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harajuku\" target=\"_blank\">Harajuku culture.\u003c/a> It seems Stefani (or network executives) thought the best way to deal with the overt cultural appropriation was simply \"let's not have them be Asian anymore.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There are Stefani fans who will undoubtedly argue that if she had gone with an animated band of obviously Asian characters, that too would have been culturally insensitive. They will say that Gwen is damned if she does, and damned if she doesn't. But there is a very obvious and simple way for Stefani to avoid any more racial and cultural shadiness here: Just remove the word \"Harajuku\" from the show. Problem solved!\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uOHAU13FfiI\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Gwen Stefani is a well-established enough artist to make a successful animated show about five girls forming a Spice Girls-style band and having adventures without chucking the word \"Harajuku\" into the title -- especially, seemingly, for the sake of clinging to a problematic theme that she already exhausted 12 years ago. Too late now, though: the show has already been on in Australia for almost a year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It might seem foolish to be upset about anything Gwen Stefani does at this point. Sure, this is \"only\" pop music and a children's TV show we're talking about. But to maintain a career this long, in the face of so much criticism, and to continue carelessly running amok with other nations' cultural, religious and traditional symbolism is truly astonishing at this point -- as is hanging onto the thinnest threads of stolen Harajuku girl culture to sell a very American cartoon.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In November of last year, in an interview with Australia's \u003cem>Sunshine Coast Daily\u003c/em>, to promote \u003cem>Kuu Kuu Harajuku\u003c/em>, Stefani said: \"The Harajuku Girls can do anything, they can wear anything, and they can be anything.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Anything, apparently, but inoffensive.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp> \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp> \u003c/p>\n\n",

It's hard not to. The school uniforms are still there. And one girl has hair sticks. But these \"Harajuku\" girls, with their long legs, tiny waists, big boots and oversized, made-up eyes, more closely resemble \u003ca href=\"http://www.toysrus.com/graphics/product_images/pTRU1-20937459enh-z6.jpg\">Bratz\u003c/a> dolls (a brand frequently criticized for marketing overly-sexualized female body ideals to tweens) than anything related to \u003ca href=\"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harajuku\" target=\"_blank\">Harajuku culture.\u003c/a> It seems Stefani (or network executives) thought the best way to deal with the overt cultural appropriation was simply \"let's not have them be Asian anymore.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There are Stefani fans who will undoubtedly argue that if she had gone with an animated band of obviously Asian characters, that too would have been culturally insensitive. They will say that Gwen is damned if she does, and damned if she doesn't. But there is a very obvious and simple way for Stefani to avoid any more racial and cultural shadiness here: Just remove the word \"Harajuku\" from the show.

Too late now, though: the show has already been on in Australia for almost a year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It might seem foolish to be upset about anything Gwen Stefani does at this point. Sure, this is \"only\" pop music and a children's TV show we're talking about. But to maintain a career this long, in the face of so much criticism, and to continue carelessly running amok with other nations' cultural, religious and traditional symbolism is truly astonishing at this point -- as is hanging onto the thinnest threads of stolen Harajuku girl culture to sell a very American cartoon.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In November of last year, in an interview with Australia's \u003cem>Sunshine Coast Daily\u003c/em>, to promote \u003cem>Kuu Kuu Harajuku\u003c/em>, Stefani said: \"The Harajuku Girls can do anything, they can wear anything, and they can be anything.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Anything, apparently, but inoffensive.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp> \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp> \u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

In a study of 224 girls ages 6 to 8, even three minutes of playing with super-thin dolls was shown to have a negative effect on the girls' perception of their own bodies, with participants telling researchers immediately after playtime that they wanted to be thinner. Girls who played with a fuller-figured doll did not express the same desire. (Worth noting, probably, that this experiment was conducted before Mattel came out with the new, \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/sections/codeswitch/2016/02/05/465317939/roundup-heres-what-people-are-saying-about-barbies-diversity-makeover\" target=\"_blank\">diverse body-type dolls it debuted earlier this year\u003c/a>.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nutritionist Kathleen Keller, one author of the study, said it was surprising to find such dramatic results after such a short exposure time -- but as anyone who's idly flipped through a women's magazine in the supermarket checkout line can tell you, it doesn't take more than a couple minutes of gazing at improbably twiggy arms and legs (even if you know they're Photoshopped!) to start feeling comparatively crummy about your average ones. And that's coming from a reasonably well-adjusted adult.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As for kids: It's nice to see science backing up what several generations of girls already know to be true. But it also strikes me that the Barbie research is just one piece of a very weird, relatively unexplored pie. For instance, where are the Ken studies? How many kids grow up thinking adult male humans have vague, plasticky blank swaths of skin where their genitalia should be? Do Transformers make kids feel insecure when they discover their family cars do not, in fact, have the potential to turn into supersize robot fighters at a moment's notice?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the meantime, as we wait for the doll industry to catch up to data, there's only one safe solution: Insist your children play exclusively with \u003ca href=\"http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_trksid=p2047675.m570.l1313.TR0.TRC0.H0.Xscrushkins.TRS0&_nkw=scrushkins&_sacat=0\" target=\"_blank\">vintage Scrushkins\u003c/a>.

(Worth noting, probably, that this experiment was conducted before Mattel came out with the new, \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/sections/codeswitch/2016/02/05/465317939/roundup-heres-what-people-are-saying-about-barbies-diversity-makeover\" target=\"_blank\">diverse body-type dolls it debuted earlier this year\u003c/a>.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nutritionist Kathleen Keller, one author of the study, said it was surprising to find such dramatic results after such a short exposure time -- but as anyone who's idly flipped through a women's magazine in the supermarket checkout line can tell you, it doesn't take more than a couple minutes of gazing at improbably twiggy arms and legs (even if you know they're Photoshopped!) to start feeling comparatively crummy about your average ones. And that's coming from a reasonably well-adjusted adult.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As for kids: It's nice to see science backing up what several generations of girls already know to be true. But it also strikes me that the Barbie research is just one piece of a very weird, relatively unexplored pie. For instance, where are the Ken studies? How many kids grow up thinking adult male humans have vague, plasticky blank swaths of skin where their genitalia should be? Do Transformers make kids feel insecure when they discover their family cars do not, in fact, have the potential to turn into supersize robot fighters at a moment's notice?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the meantime, as we wait for the doll industry to catch up to data, there's only one safe solution: Insist your children play exclusively with \u003ca href=\"http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_trksid=p2047675.m570.l1313.TR0.TRC0.H0.Xscrushkins.TRS0&_nkw=scrushkins&_sacat=0\" target=\"_blank\">vintage Scrushkins\u003c/a>.

There are only 92 episodes, but the stories that Longworth digs up from the “secret and/or forgotten histories of Hollywood’s first century” are like the movies her subjects starred in — full of passion, heartbreak, tragedy, and unforgettable characters. The tales of Rita Hayworth, Joan Crawford and Spencer Tracy are known to many, but when told with Longworth’s snarky-yet-empathetic spin, they are given new life, and are more palatable to someone with today’s social sensibilities. And if the subject seems unappealing, know that one doesn’t have to be a fan of black-and-white movies from the ’40s and ’50s to enjoy Longworth’s detailing of the career-destroying Hollywood Blacklist or the brutal Manson Family murders.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I spoke with Longworth last week so I could have her answer the dozens of questions burning a hole in my brain since I began listening to her show, knowing that she was going to be holed away working on a book for the next several months. Longworth proved to be a fun and patient subject — she obviously understands that few people know as much about classical Hollywood as her — and it was hard to stop asking questions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ci>Interview edited for clarity and length.\u003c/i>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Were you always a fan of classical Hollywood?\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I don’t remember a time when I wasn’t into old movies. They were primarily what I watched as a kid because my parents weren’t really interested in new movies and didn’t take me to see them and were pretty strict about what I was allowed to see in terms of new movies. There were a couple of new movies that filtered into me, like I saw \u003ci>Ghostbusters\u003c/i> and \u003ci>Back to the Future,\u003c/i> but that’s kind of it. It was pretty much just old Disney movies; we had the Disney channel and the thing about the Disney channel is that they would show old animated movies and old live action movies but then at night they would have — I’m sure it wasn’t called “Disney Channel after dark” but that’s my memory of it — and they’d show Cary Grant movies and Jimmy Stewart movies, and it was supposed to be for adults, but I would watch.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>You’ve said you heard the podcast in your head before you made it. Did any other shows inspire you to make a podcast?\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I was listening to a lot of podcasts but there wasn’t anything that I heard that sounded like what I had in my head. In fact, I wasn’t sure anybody would want to listen to what I had in my head, but I knew that in order to explain to people what it was in my head, I would have to make it, because there wasn’t anything I could point to as an example.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_12064153\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-12064153\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/arts/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/09/London400tmax152-800x476.jpg\" alt=\"How Longworth records her podcast\" width=\"800\" height=\"476\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/09/London400tmax152-800x476.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/09/London400tmax152-400x238.jpg 400w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/09/London400tmax152-768x457.jpg 768w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/09/London400tmax152-960x571.jpg 960w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/09/London400tmax152.jpg 1000w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">How Longworth records her podcast \u003ccite>(Photo: Meghann Lee)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>How did you come up with your introduction phrase, “Join us, won’t you?”\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It’s just one of those things I heard in my head. It was actually one of the important aspects of the show I heard in my head. I wanted the show to feel like something spooky that you would hear late at night on a drive through the middle of nowhere.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Are there subjects you enjoy more than others?\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Because it’s a lot of work to make the podcast, I try not to even choose to make an episode about a topic I’m not interested in. But within that, certainly there are movies I enjoy watching more than other movies. I think you can tell by the topics I’ve worked on; I’ve definitely talked about more women than men, and there are certain genres that I haven’t gotten into that much. Some of that is just that there’s a lot to do and I haven’t done it all yet. I don’t talk about Westerns all that often because I’m not that knowledgeable about them.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On some level the show is about having an excuse to learn about things that I’ve always wanted to learn about but haven’t yet. But on another level, I have to know a little bit about a subject to even go into making a podcast episode about it because if I start from scratch, it’s just too hard.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>The subjects you cover on the podcast were reported on by both serious journalists and tabloid reporters. How do you balance all the information you come across and make sure it’s factual?\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I don’t believe anything I read, really. History is all written from a point of view and I see it all as just stories, whether it’s proven to be true or not; it’s all just a tapestry of public ideas. I take everything with a grain of salt, but there are certain stories that get repeated many, many times and the original source is the \u003cem>New York Times\u003c/em> — those events certainly happened. Then there are other events that are only one or two sources and their reports about it conflict, and those are more interesting to me; a lot of the show is about conflicting details and why somebody would’ve said that something happened this way while someone else said it happened another way. On one level the show is less a work of history and more of a work of historiography because it’s about the way stories are told than the stories themselves.\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"aligncenter noborder\">\nhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DNdmGqLMqE4\n\u003cp class=\"wp-caption-text\">\u003ci>This is footage from the first televised Oscars ceremony in 1953 of Gloria Grahame winning the award for Best Supporting Actress. In her episode about Grahame, Longworth reports that what wasn’t aired was Grahame tripping while walking up the stairs and blurting “Oh shit!” when she fell, which became scandal worthy of constant coverage in the tabloids.\u003c/i>\u003c/p>\n\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Do you ever feel the need to use your podcast to correct history?\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I wouldn’t say “correct” because I don’t know what really happened in any of these cases. The tagline for the show is that it is about the secret and forgotten histories, and for me a lot of the secret history stuff is about looking at these events from the perspective of today, from a female perspective — especially on stories from the 1940s and ’50s. The default voice of American popular culture was from powerful white males. So if you were living a life that didn’t necessarily fit perfectly with the expectations of that default voice, then your story was either skewed or wasn’t told completely. I think coming at it from my perspective, that of a woman who was born near the end of the 20th century and living in the time that we’re in now, I’m able to see things from a different angle and tell a different version of the history.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Do you ever feel like you would fit better in the times that you cover, the ’40s or ’50s? Like you were meant to live in the past?\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>No, I don’t want to time travel or feel like I was born in the wrong time or anything. I would say that I grew up during a time in which it was so much more normal to be interested in movies than it is now. Now it’s almost a specialty to follow anything but Marvel movies, but that’s just times changing and me getting older. I’m never going to watch YouTube content — that’s just not something I’m going to be into — but that doesn’t necessarily mean I’m going to be cosplaying the ’60s or whatever.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_12064160\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\" style=\"max-width: 600px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-12064160\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/arts/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/09/YMRTLogoHighRes-600x600.jpg\" alt=\"The podcast's logo\" width=\"600\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/09/YMRTLogoHighRes-600x600.jpg 600w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/09/YMRTLogoHighRes-400x400.jpg 400w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/09/YMRTLogoHighRes-768x768.jpg 768w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/09/YMRTLogoHighRes-1180x1180.jpg 1180w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/09/YMRTLogoHighRes-1920x1920.jpg 1920w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/09/YMRTLogoHighRes-960x960.jpg 960w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/09/YMRTLogoHighRes-32x32.jpg 32w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/09/YMRTLogoHighRes-50x50.jpg 50w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/09/YMRTLogoHighRes-64x64.jpg 64w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/09/YMRTLogoHighRes-96x96.jpg 96w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/09/YMRTLogoHighRes-128x128.jpg 128w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/09/YMRTLogoHighRes-150x150.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">The podcast’s logo\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>So if I met you in person, you wouldn’t be rocking a bee hive and wearing knee-high white leather boots?\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>No, but I did just buy a car from 1987.

There are only 92 episodes, but the stories that Longworth digs up from the “secret and/or forgotten histories of Hollywood’s first century” are like the movies her subjects starred in — full of passion, heartbreak, tragedy, and unforgettable characters. The tales of Rita Hayworth, Joan Crawford and Spencer Tracy are known to many, but when told with Longworth’s snarky-yet-empathetic spin, they are given new life, and are more palatable to someone with today’s social sensibilities. And if the subject seems unappealing, know that one doesn’t have to be a fan of black-and-white movies from the ’40s and ’50s to enjoy Longworth’s detailing of the career-destroying Hollywood Blacklist or the brutal Manson Family murders.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I spoke with Longworth last week so I could have her answer the dozens of questions burning a hole in my brain since I began listening to her show, knowing that she was going to be holed away working on a book for the next several months. Longworth proved to be a fun and patient subject — she obviously understands that few people know as much about classical Hollywood as her — and it was hard to stop asking questions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ci>Interview edited for clarity and length.\u003c/i>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Were you always a fan of classical Hollywood?\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

They were primarily what I watched as a kid because my parents weren’t really interested in new movies and didn’t take me to see them and were pretty strict about what I was allowed to see in terms of new movies. There were a couple of new movies that filtered into me, like I saw \u003ci>Ghostbusters\u003c/i> and \u003ci>Back to the Future,\u003c/i> but that’s kind of it. It was pretty much just old Disney movies; we had the Disney channel and the thing about the Disney channel is that they would show old animated movies and old live action movies but then at night they would have — I’m sure it wasn’t called “Disney Channel after dark” but that’s my memory of it — and they’d show Cary Grant movies and Jimmy Stewart movies, and it was supposed to be for adults, but I would watch.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>You’ve said you heard the podcast in your head before you made it. Did any other shows inspire you to make a podcast?\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I was listening to a lot of podcasts but there wasn’t anything that I heard that sounded like what I had in my head. In fact, I wasn’t sure anybody would want to listen to what I had in my head, but I knew that in order to explain to people what it was in my head, I would have to make it, because there wasn’t anything I could point to as an example.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_12064153\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-12064153\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/arts/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/09/London400tmax152-800x476.jpg\" alt=\"How Longworth records her podcast\" width=\"800\" height=\"476\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/09/London400tmax152-800x476.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/09/London400tmax152-400x238.jpg 400w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/09/London400tmax152-768x457.jpg 768w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/09/London400tmax152-960x571.jpg 960w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/09/London400tmax152.jpg 1000w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">How Longworth records her podcast \u003ccite>(Photo: Meghann Lee)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>How did you come up with your introduction phrase, “Join us, won’t you?”\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It’s just one of those things I heard in my head. It was actually one of the important aspects of the show I heard in my head. I wanted the show to feel like something spooky that you would hear late at night on a drive through the middle of nowhere.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Are there subjects you enjoy more than others?\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Because it’s a lot of work to make the podcast, I try not to even choose to make an episode about a topic I’m not interested in. But within that, certainly there are movies I enjoy watching more than other movies. I think you can tell by the topics I’ve worked on; I’ve definitely talked about more women than men, and there are certain genres that I haven’t gotten into that much. Some of that is just that there’s a lot to do and I haven’t done it all yet. I don’t talk about Westerns all that often because I’m not that knowledgeable about them.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On some level the show is about having an excuse to learn about things that I’ve always wanted to learn about but haven’t yet. But on another level, I have to know a little bit about a subject to even go into making a podcast episode about it because if I start from scratch, it’s just too hard.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>The subjects you cover on the podcast were reported on by both serious journalists and tabloid reporters. How do you balance all the information you come across and make sure it’s factual?\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I don’t believe anything I read, really. History is all written from a point of view and I see it all as just stories, whether it’s proven to be true or not; it’s all just a tapestry of public ideas. I take everything with a grain of salt, but there are certain stories that get repeated many, many times and the original source is the \u003cem>New York Times\u003c/em> — those events certainly happened. Then there are other events that are only one or two sources and their reports about it conflict, and those are more interesting to me; a lot of the show is about conflicting details and why somebody would’ve said that something happened this way while someone else said it happened another way. On one level the show is less a work of history and more of a work of historiography because it’s about the way stories are told than the stories themselves.\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"aligncenter noborder\">\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutube'>\n \u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutubeInside'>\n \u003ciframe\n loading='lazy'\n class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__youtubePlayer'\n type='text/html'\n src='//www.youtube.com/embed/DNdmGqLMqE4'\n title='//www.youtube.com/embed/DNdmGqLMqE4'\n allowfullscreen='true'\n style='border:0;'>\u003c/iframe>\n \u003c/span>\n \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cp class=\"wp-caption-text\">\u003ci>This is footage from the first televised Oscars ceremony in 1953 of Gloria Grahame winning the award for Best Supporting Actress. In her episode about Grahame, Longworth reports that what wasn’t aired was Grahame tripping while walking up the stairs and blurting “Oh shit!” when she fell, which became scandal worthy of constant coverage in the tabloids.\u003c/i>\u003c/p>\n\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Do you ever feel the need to use your podcast to correct history?\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I wouldn’t say “correct” because I don’t know what really happened in any of these cases. The tagline for the show is that it is about the secret and forgotten histories, and for me a lot of the secret history stuff is about looking at these events from the perspective of today, from a female perspective — especially on stories from the 1940s and ’50s. The default voice of American popular culture was from powerful white males. So if you were living a life that didn’t necessarily fit perfectly with the expectations of that default voice, then your story was either skewed or wasn’t told completely. I think coming at it from my perspective, that of a woman who was born near the end of the 20th century and living in the time that we’re in now, I’m able to see things from a different angle and tell a different version of the history.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Do you ever feel like you would fit better in the times that you cover, the ’40s or ’50s? Like you were meant to live in the past?\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>No, I don’t want to time travel or feel like I was born in the wrong time or anything. I would say that I grew up during a time in which it was so much more normal to be interested in movies than it is now. Now it’s almost a specialty to follow anything but Marvel movies, but that’s just times changing and me getting older. I’m never going to watch YouTube content — that’s just not something I’m going to be into — but that doesn’t necessarily mean I’m going to be cosplaying the ’60s or whatever.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_12064160\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\" style=\"max-width: 600px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-12064160\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/arts/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/09/YMRTLogoHighRes-600x600.jpg\" alt=\"The podcast's logo\" width=\"600\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/09/YMRTLogoHighRes-600x600.jpg 600w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/09/YMRTLogoHighRes-400x400.jpg 400w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/09/YMRTLogoHighRes-768x768.jpg 768w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/09/YMRTLogoHighRes-1180x1180.jpg 1180w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/09/YMRTLogoHighRes-1920x1920.jpg 1920w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/09/YMRTLogoHighRes-960x960.jpg 960w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/09/YMRTLogoHighRes-32x32.jpg 32w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/09/YMRTLogoHighRes-50x50.jpg 50w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/09/YMRTLogoHighRes-64x64.jpg 64w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/09/YMRTLogoHighRes-96x96.jpg 96w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/09/YMRTLogoHighRes-128x128.jpg 128w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/09/YMRTLogoHighRes-150x150.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">The podcast’s logo\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>So if I met you in person, you wouldn’t be rocking a bee hive and wearing knee-high white leather boots?\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>No, but I did just buy a car from 1987.
