Rizzoli & Isles Subtext Recap: Taking the Next Step
[K+B] I have no lead what exactly happened in Jane's and Maura's relationship during the season separate, but Season 2 Episode 2 titled "Living Proof" seems like the proof that all those fanfics you were reading the last couple of months weren't too far from the authenticity - because obviously Jane and Maura are beyond the early stages of flirting, and instead entered directly into happy marital bliss. Don't worry, however, the eyesex is still there and they added nakedness as a bonus:
Could we ask for baths in transparent, instead of toxic/brown substances the next time?Thank you, your lesbian fanbase.
Disclaimer: I am the first to admit that this week's episode seemed to be a bit distracted from Rizzles by the actual crime plot, but, approach on, it's rigid to stay mad at an episode that ends with this:
So let's grant this a chance, shall we?
The episode starts with beautifully close/intimate (Is there really anyone else in your existence but your girlfriend, whom you would compare to your mother during an argument?) bickering between our two favorite non-gay ci
Overview
Jane Rizzoli (a Boston homicide detective) and Maura Isles (the chief medical examiner) couldn’t be more different. And they couldn’t be a more perfect couple. From spending all their free second with each other to trading clothes, they bantered and bickered like an old married couple.
Except they happened to be totally, 100%, straight.
That would be pleasant , except the exhibit admitted to totally playing up the queerness.
As Angie Harmon (Rizzoli) put it to TV Guide:
“From the beginning, that lively chemistry – along with the fact that the characters can’t maintain steady relationships – has some fans wondering whether there was more between Rizzoli and Isles than just dusting for fingerprints. […] Alexander just smiles. “There’s nothing lgbtq+ about them,” she says. “What’s gay? That Jane has a raspy voice?” Still. Harmon admits they do act up the tension sometimes. A poster for the brand-new season features the women languidly stretched out together on a picnic blanket, for example. “Sometimes we’ll do a take for that demo,” Harmon admits. “I’ll brush by [Maura’s] blouse or maybe linger for a moment. As long as we’re not being accused of being homophobic, which i
And now, inside the show's cover story in this week's TV Guide, its stars are totally admitting it:
In the article, they address their lesbian fan base:
"From the beginning, that lively bond – along with the truth that the characters can't maintain steady relationships – has some fans wondering whether there was more between Rizzoli and Isles than just dusting for fingerprints. [...] Alexander just smiles. "There's nothing gay about them," she says. "What's gay? That Jane has a raspy voice?" Still. Harmon admits they do participate up the tension sometimes. A poster for the new season features the women languidly stretched out together on a picnic blanket, for example. "Sometimes we'll do a take for that demo," Harmon admits. "I'll brush by [Maura's] blouse or maybe linger for a moment. As long as we're not entity accused of being homophobic, which is not in any way true and completely infuriating, I'm OK with it."Subtle.
Writer Janet Tamaro previously told TV Guide:
The female homosexual theory endlessly amuses me, and it amuses the cast. Rizzoli and Isles have been heterosexual from the first episode, though there is no way I would want to interfere with my viewers' fantaA Look Back at Rizzoli & Isles’ Unique Bond and Ensuing Fan Theories, 15 Years Later
When Rizzoli & Isles debuted 15 years ago, on July 12, 2010, it seemed like a typical cable TV procedural — albeit one that set a record for cable’s No. 1 ad-supported series launch of all time. Based on mystery novels by Tess Gerritsen, the TNT drama starred Angie Harmon as Jane Rizzoli, a Boston detective, and Sasha Alexander as Maura Isles, the medical examiner with whom she teams up to catch the city’s most notorious criminals.
By television standards, though, Rizzoli and Isles were atypical partners-in-crime-solving. From the jump, viewers suspected that the partnership between the lead characters wasn’t just professional. In a review of the pilot episode, The Washington Post critic Hank Stuever noted “faintly lesbian undertones” between the two command characters. Those undertones, of course, became less faint as the show went on.
