Haven't heard about Her Story? Here's what folks are saying about it:

"As the short episodes played one after the other, faces beamed while watching the complex lives of lesbians and trans women being told in a way that actually felt real. Several times while watching the series, I felt tears rolling down my cheeks. The characters felt more familiar than anyone before them... Finally, an L Word for all of us."
- Mary Emily O'Hara (The Daily Dot)

“Her Story is poised to be one of the most authentic onscreen depictions of trans women ever. Not only that, but since the cast and crew is filled with so much talent and their vision for the project is so clear and detailed, it’s also poised to be one of the best onscreen depictions of trans women ever…Her Story is exactly the kind of trans media that I want to see.” - Mey Rude for Autostraddle

“This series is so real, specific and intense – and, I hope, a model for future television programs – because it is the first show made by a collective of trans and queer writers, actors, directors, producers, camera people and musicians…[it’s] gritty, sexy and real. Her Story could be the new rad-fem soap opera. The characters all work against cliché, exploitation and political correctness…[But] what is most moving about Her Story is that it is about love: the hunger for love, the obstacles to love, the triumphs of love, the confusion of love, the possibility of love.” -Eve Ensler for The Guardian
