We'd Definitely Watch SNL's Lesbian Fire Island Spoof If It Was a Real Thing
Why doesn't Logo just make THIS a show??
Last week, gay TV network Logo premiered the steamy trailer for Fire Island, a new reality show starring six Instagram models crammed in one house on the infamous gay island getaway.
Well it looks like these studs might be getting new neighbors. Over the weekend, Saturday Night Live spoofed the series with a parody trailer for Cherry Grove featuring six affluent lesbians who live the next beach over.
If you love white wine, passive agressive side eye, adorable miracles of home waterbirth, and wolf puzzles, this just might be the show for you.
Honestly I'm here for both, but the internet couldn't decide which show they wanted more.
\u201cAll I'm saying is I'd watch the shit out of that fire island parody that SNL did. \ud83d\ude02\u201d— \ud83c\udf51Jamie Sara\ud83c\udf51 (@\ud83c\udf51Jamie Sara\ud83c\udf51) 1489429576
\u201cCherry Grove > Fire Island. Thanks SNL\u201d— Ashley (@Ashley) 1489376981
Cherry Grove even has Jane Lynch's support.

In another noteworthy move, Cecily Strong wore a t-shirt that boldly read "TRANS RIGHTS ARE HUMAN RIGHTS" during the ending credits of Saturday's episode.
Did you see SNL cast member Cecily Strong stand up for trans equality on the show over the weekend?

It appears that the rest of the cast wore black shirts in solidarity. Keep on fighting the good fight, SNL. And please make sure Cherry Grove actually becomes a thing.
