Welcome to your weekly pop culture fix, featuring all the culture that is fit to pop.

+ Marvel’s Runaways will be back on December 21st and this TVLine scoop is so good I cannot wait.

The Karolina/Nico relationship that sparked at the close of the Hulu series’ freshman run “is, in a large way, the emotional core” of Season 2, co-showrunner Josh Schwartz says. And yet the freedom the girls now enjoy might just flummox them a bit! “They both sort of declared themselves to each other,” says co-showrunner Stephanie Savage, “and now they’re in a situation where they’re living without their parents but they’re living with the rest of the runways in the same house — which is a pretty quick advancement of a new relationship for young people. They’re going to be struggling not just with trying to save the world, but how to have an appropriate teenage relationship in such an adult situation.”

+ Look, apparently there’s going to be a Designing Women reboot and there’s nothing we can do about it and therefore it’s time to start campaigning for me — Heather Hogan, born and raised Georgia girl and professional lesbian TV writer of more than one decade — to be hired to consult on this show that absolutely must add a queer character in 2018.

+ Sophie Gilbert over at The Atlantic has some thoughts about how Orange Is the New Black is going to end.

+ In last week’s pop culture fix, Riese investigated the mystery of that Ryan Murphy / Pose / Variety trans roundtable conversation that took Twitter by storm. Murphy’s camp has since responded.

+ Also in last week’s pop culture fix was the Ruby Rose Batwoman news and an update on that is that Ruby Rose has quit Twitter due to backlash.

+ Brooklyn Nine-Nine is working on a #MeToo episode for season six.

+ I believe many of you will enjoy this op-ed over at Hypable about Lena Luthor.

+ Shonda Rhimes really wanted to Callie to come back for Arizona’s last episode but CBS wouldn’t let her do it because of Madam Secretary! Booooo! Booooooo!!!!!! HIIISSSS! ?

+ Sarah Paulson and Sandra Oh had never met until Variety put them in a room together to talk about how brilliant and talented they both are.

+ Mo Ryan knows what the fuck is up.
