Hot Taking It: A Faking It Rewatch Podcast

This episode has it all: Amy's complex relationship to femininity, Karma showing genuine emotional intelligence, and multiple scenes with people screaming the word "croquembouche." Also, Karma and Amy confess their love for each other. Okay, they don't, but it felt like it. We got pretty emotional.

Karma and Amy don't talk for an entire episode, which is ten thousand years in lesbian time. Laney and Alix consider getting adopted by Karma's parents. Something with a selfie happens at some point, or something. And Liam, a high school sophomore, may or may not be sleeping with a high-powered Google executive. (He is not.)

We dive deeper into the delicious world of Hester High: sexy protests, hunger strikes, and the evil Skwerkle corporation. Karma takes a risk, Amy makes some important discoveries about herself, and Alix and Laney find someone they hate more than Liam.

In episode 2 of Hot Taking It, Alix and Laney take on "Homecoming Out." Amy and Karma deal with the social implications of their fake relationship. Alix and Laney approve of almost everyone's life choices. Liam sucks.

Welcome to Hot Taking It, where Alix and Laney relive the greatest slow burn fake dating teen lesbian sitcom that was ever canceled too early after three seasons. On this episode, we discuss the Faking It pilot, including one of the most iconic television kisses ever aired.
