No one should be pressured into watching or supporting a TV show for any other reason than it’s a great show, but we’ll be honest here: our initial reaction to the news that the trailer for Under the Bridge dropped was “We don’t care. We’re watching for Lily.”

Fortunately, it looks pretty good, although the dead teenager drama is a bit played out at this point. Still, we may as well be honest and admit we’re only watching for Lily. We figure if you felt she got robbed of wins during awards season, the best thing you can do for her is to support her work. All too often, actors of color who get their first nominations wind up struggling for prestige work in a way their white peers don’t have to and many of them never achieve that career high again. Let’s make sure that doesn’t happen. Watch for Lily. Or don’t! Just a suggestion!
