    Has anyone seen this? It's a documentary series from Viceland where Ellen Page and her gay male best friend visit different countries and explore LGBTQ life there. It's really interesting. I watched the first episode about Japan on YouTube. I'm about to watch the Brazil episode and then the Jamaica episode once it becomes available. There's been some criticism saying that the show discusses LGBT life through a very western, white, cisgender lens. It doesn't understand the nuance of gender and sexuality that exists in non-western and non-white cultures. I can understand that, but I think it's an interesting series nonetheless. Check it out.

    I've seen the first 2 episodes they were both really good, I'm looking forward to watching the rest of the series.

    I've seen this show too. I only had a chance to see the first episode but from what I've seen for far I like. Actually I like the whole Viceland network as a whole and how they approach certain topics.

    Yup. Great show. The Jamaica one was crazy, and that moment with the cop in Brazil. Viceland has amazing programming all around.

    I watched the Brazil one and thought it was very interesting...Looking forward to the Jamaican one as well, although I can already predict the homophobia, I hope it'll prove me wrong.

    Brazil seems to be the only country in the World, that is almost as historically and demographically diverse as the US. It is so fascinating to me.
