From riese of Autostraddle:

  • In Canadian TV Show “Bomb Girls,” It’s Women and Lesbians First
    Hey-o, did you read a lot of historical fiction as a child? Do you like tough women handling heavy machinery in pants and sometimes changing into skirts afterwards but sometimes just keeping the pants on? Do you like lesbians? Then you’ll LOVE Bomb Girls, a sometimes-cheesy show about Canadian women factory workers during World War II with heaps of feminist and homosexual content. You might also love the fancy slick interactive educational website, another high-production-value element of the show my Canadian girlfriend says is unique for Canadian-produced television.

  • Bomb Girls’ Antonio Cupo one lucky guy
    NOT long into Global TV’s new show, Bomb Girls, Marco Moretti gets into a fistfight, threatens a supervisor and causes an accident that maims a co-worker.

    Vancouver actor Antonio Cupo spent last year getting in touch with his feminine side, creatively speaking. He’s currently on view in Global TV’s Bomb Girls as Marco, an Italian-Canadian who has something to prove after he is kept from joining Canada’s Second World War fight by his ethnicity. He finds himself one of the few men on a factory floor of female munitions workers. Read more.
