Summary

An ode to Rayanne, the best friend your parents love to hate

Episode Description

It's a banner day for Feeling Seen! On the heels of her latest screenplay, LISA FRANKENSTEIN (in theaters now), Jordan is talking to none other than Diablo Cody. From the Oscar win for her first screenplay (JUNO) to her recent success in the realm of the Broadway musical (JAGGED LITTLE PILL), Diablo has made a career of writing from her unique voice and perspective. And she's feeling seen by the unique, and arguably misunderstood (especially by parents!) Rayanne from the shortlived-yet-seminal 1990s teen drama MY SO-CALLED LIFE.

Then Jordan has one quick thing about...MADAME WEB! And she's on Letterboxd.
