It seems that brunettes carry the day by a pretty wide margin. I was leaning that way myself after some thought, so I think it's a certainty I'll be going with a brown haired protagonist.
Also, the vignette released today is not what you were all expressing an opinion on. That brunette has yet to come. That story is shaping up to be quite interesting, at least for me!

Plump Culture Review: Dumplin', Ginnifer Goodwin
I heard that there was almost no leftover candy at my supermarket after Halloween. Fingers crossed you and yours don't have such terrible luck this Easter. Dumplin' I realize I'm late to the party on this one since this movie came out in 2018, but for some reason I never gave it a shot. Seeing as I read If the Shoe Fits by Julie Murphy last year, I thought it was worth a watch, especially because I enjoyed Maddie Baillio in the Camilla Cabello Cinderella. (It helped that she was paired with Charlotte Spencer of Sanditon, who is a major crush of mine, as the stepsisters.) Where ITSF fell a little flat for me, I enjoyed Dumplin'. Its soundtrack is almost entirely Dolly Parton (even if I'm more of a Patsy Cline and Loretta Lynn fan, in that order), it had a nice body positivity message, and there's a couple moments I won't spoil. Is it the greatest film about fat women out there? Maybe not (I'd need to see the list to really rank it), but it's a great way to spend 110 minutes. Ginnifer
Id's Plump Culture Review: Bridgerton, A and L
Before we get to the meat of this article, I've talked about Astrid and Lilly Save the World a couple of times in these PCRs. I'm now done with it and can make my full report. It's a fine show. And I do mean fine. It's not an amazing show. I kind of watched it just to see it through rather than being riveted to it. It aired Wednesday nights and most of its run was paired with Resident Alien (which I've also mentioned a couple of times here). There was nothing about the story that particularly grabbed me. And yet I'm not sorry I watched it. It was 10 episodes that featured 1 or 2 fat girls on screen for about 75% of the show. I think that level of fat representation hasn't been seen since Huge, over a decade ago. (Funnily enough, that was the first thing I saw Harvey Guillen in and now he's basically a household name in my friend group for his role on the TV version of What We Do in the Shadows. Sadly, DA is not giving me any gifs of Nandor saying, "But not you Guillermo," to punctuate
Id's Plump Culture Review: Roundup (pun intended)
It's been a while since my last PCR and the plump culture has piled up! Astrid and Lilly update I'm still watching Astrid and Lilly Save the World. I've come to the conclusion that it's just an OK show. If it didn't have two fat women as leads on it, I wouldn't be watching it now. But it does so I am! There's less to write about with each episode, but sometimes gems break through. For example: Astrid: "Is it me or do my new superpowers make my boobs look bigger?" Lilly: "Is this the week I wear shorts to school?" And guess what! She wears shorts later! And there's tons of thighs on display! And someone compliments her on it! And there's lots of thigh rubbing in the episode! There was also a glorious shot where Lilly's boobs looked particularly wide and heavy at the start of one episode. It was pretty great to see. There was a reference on the sly to scat humiliation. I think I might have done a spit take to see something that's definitely part of BBW erotica even get glancingly
Id's Plump Culture Review: SyFy
Science fiction isn't inherently progressive, but it often asks the question, "Where could we go?" While I was raised with Star Wars as my guiding light (and still enjoy their well-done efforts), I've come to appreciate science fiction that is optimistic about our future. Though I enjoyed the original Star Trek as a kid (I must have had an inherent appreciation for camp because I was also--and remain--an Adam West Batman fan at that age), a few years back I discovered The Orville, which does a pretty good job of explaining what the future a la Star Trek is (a post-resource scarcity society where we all pursue what's meaningful to us rather than what makes us money). I'm now two seasons deep into The Next Generation (with a side trip for the first season of Lower Decks, which is honestly hilarious even if you don't know much about Star Trek) and thinking, "Yes, this is the future I want my descendants to live in." (Just kidding! We're all headed for Horizon Zero Dawn instead.) The
