Vag Magazine
Vag Magazine is not your grandma’s feminist magazine, though we support her as a woman. Join founders Fennel, Sylvie, and Bethany, staffers Heavy Flo (a hero on the roller derby circuit), Reba (truly a legend of gonzo feminist pop culture journalism), and Meghan (the lone holdover from fashion magazine Gemma, which the Vag founders bought out...
futurejournalismproject:
Web serial Vag Magazine has pretty much nailed the complexities and intrigue of one of New York City’s most coveted industries.
In these hilarious webisodes, third-wave feminists Fennel, Sylvie and Bethany use the proceeds from their Etsy store to start their own magazine Vag, in the offices of Gemma, a fashion magazine “that has fallen, as all patriarchal regimes...

Awesome mention from GigaOM and New TeeVee!
Through the final episode, Vag was an addictively funny satire of third-wave feminism — one of the rare comedies, ever, to find truly funny material in menstruation. I dearly hope we get a season two from Leila Cohan-Miccio and Caitlin Tegart in 2011.

Great write up of Vag Magazine in general and Meghan, specifically.
While at first glance it might seem that the show ridicules feminists, in fact it ridicules stereotypes of feminists, as represented by the magazine’s founders, Fennel, Sylvie, Bethany and Heavy Flo. These women are pretentious, easily offended and self-important. Megan, who ends up part of the Vag team almost on accident,...
Awesome web television website Gigaom recommends “insanely funny” Vag Magazine in their weekly web series about getting rid of your television.

Digital Chick TV’s Daryn Strauss interviewed Jocelyn, Nicole, Sarah, Veronica, Leslie, Morgan, and Shannon! Our five favorite quotes out of context:
Lisa Kudrow, if you’re reading this, “You the bomb, baby girl.”
“Maybe do it like the last take. The one before. No. No. Stop chewing your hair.”

Privilege Denying Dude creator Diana Lopez gives us a shout out!
Vag Magazine is a The Office-style Web series that lovingly parodies the foibles of a group of well-meaning young feminists as they launch the titular publication. Broad gags like a character who menstruates freely against the patriarchy, and a rival publication called Cunt, are cut with winceworthily accurate portrayals of our own...

Awesome write-up from CC Insider’s Gonzalo Cordova!
Boy, the times sure are a’changing! There are more web series adopting the format of television seasons, and the quality of internet content from comedians working independently is getting more ambitious and polished. As this interview on the UCB blog explains, Leila Cohan-Miccio and Caitlin Tegart created the popular and charming...

Awesome write up from Crushable’s Drew Grant!
Since we’re really good at predicting the popularity of female comedians with their own web series (we correctly guessed both Elaine Carroll and Lena Dunham would be taking off in the near future), we hope you’ve been watching this season of Vag Magazine. Created by Upright Citizen Brigade’s Leila Cohan-Miccio and Caitlin Tegart, this is...

In the Season One finale, tensions run high between Fennel, Sylvie, and Bethany at the Vag launch party and Jaybird makes Meghan an offer.
The A.V. Club: Laugh Track →
Awesome Vag Magazine review from the A.V. Club’s Steve Heisler!
The mark of bad social commentary is when the comic feels the need for a figurative wink (or in the case of hilarious stand-up comedian Sarah Palin, a literal wink) to the camera. But there’s no desperation or “See what I did there?” in Vag Magazine, a six-part series that details the launch of an exaggeratedly feminist rag....

The estimable Sady Doyle weighs in on Vag Magazine in a post that made my heart sing with joy.
There is a level of affection in it that I find laudable, and charming, and would seem to demonstrate that these folks have actually read the stuff they are working from, and even don’t hate it! I don’t know why “don’t hate it” is a surprising thing, to me — oh, wait, yes I do, I spent hours reading...

Vag Magazine Episode 4: “Feminist Sweepstakes”
The Vag staff is shocked to learn that cover celebrity Amaryllis Cross is also slated to appear on the cover of rival third-wave feminist magazine Cunt. Jaybird, the editor of Cunt and Bethany’s ex-girlfriend, comes to the Vag offices to sort things out.
