The '70s comedy series has changed streaming homes between seasons, but what else do you need to refresh your memory on?
Minx, a series about a titular erotic feminist magazine, brought us back decades to the 1970s. But before the magazine is published and pictures of men dropping their pants drop jaws across the country, we meet Joyce Prigger trying to get her feminist magazine, The Matriarchy Awakens, turned from concept to reality. Despite her intelligence and determination, no one is interested in publishing an unapologetically feminist magazine.
Overwhelmed by the atmosphere of the porn industry, Joyce pulls the plug on the magazine, feeling that her idea is being corrupted — but as she decides against it, Cosmopolitan publishes the famous nude centerfold of Burt Reynolds.
But the magazine faces multiple hurdles, including newly-elected city councilwoman Bridget Westbury who is a stand-in for women like Phyllis Schlafly or Gov. Kristi Noem, someone who may be a female elected official but would definitely not identify as a feminist. It’s Westbury’s top initiative to remove production of more adult material from the Valley, and they use harassment tactics to try to push Bottom Dollar out.
The wife of a misogynist radio host that Joyce sparred with on-air is tired of how her husband treats her, so she purposefully touches him while her hand is covered in pepper juice, knowing it'll burn. She later admits that she did it because she was inspired by Minx. The radio host publicly sensationalizes what happened to him, making himself out to be the victim. After a crowd of angry men, feeling threatened by Minx and what it represents, begin to attack Bottom Dollar studios.
