Unleash your inner woman and feel empowered by the story of a young feminist named Joyce. Find out where to watch “Minx” in Canada.

What is Minx About?

“Minx” revolves around the creation of a magazine of the same name – the first-ever erotic magazine made for women. This publication, spearheaded by young feminist Joyce Prigger, is a part of the second wave of feminism in the 1970s – the sexual revolution, where female sexual empowerment and freedom was a resounding movement. Joyce’s goal is to create a sex-positive magazine for women, not unlike the many publications that men already have. She runs into a couple of snags, especially since at that point the world was still very male-centric despite the feminist movement. However, she enlists the help of adult-magazine publisher Doug Renetti, and Minx magazine is finally put in motion.

“Minx” premiered on HBO Max in March 2022, but the TV company canceled the show just months after its second season was announced as renewed. Luckily, TV network Starz picked the series up, and its second season premiered on the Starz platform on July 2023.

Who Are in the Cast and Production of Minx?

“Minx” boasts a great set of actors and actresses. The series stars:

• Ophelia Lovibond as Joyce

• Jessica Lowe as Bambi
• Oscar Montoya as Richie
• Lennon Parham as Shelly
• Idara Victor as Tina
• Jake Johnson as Doug

The series was created by Ellen Rapoport and backed by the infamous American-Canadian entertainment company, Lionsgate Television. Other notable shows under the company include “Orange is the New Black” and “Zoey’s Extraordinary Playlist.”

“Minx” is rated TV-MA. The nature of the show lends itself to mature and adult themes such as nudity, sexuality, intimacy, and some profanity, so it is only suitable for viewers aged 17 and above.

How Many People Watch Minx?

“Minx” must have amassed a decent amount of viewers for Starz to have picked it up post-cancelation. Unfortunately, specific numbers are not available. However, according to Parrot Analytics, “the audience demand for Minx is 5.5 times the demand of the average TV series in the United States in the last 30 days.”

How Are the Reviews for Minx?

“Minx” is generally favored by critics, with many enjoying the rapport between the two leads (Joyce and Doug) and the show’s way of combining smart, sensual, and funny. It is rated 91% on Rotten Tomatoes’ Tomatometer. See what critics have to say about “Minx”:

• Guardian on Season 1: “After several prestigious but straight-faced 70s-set dramas, I have come to expect a more sombre tone from shows hovering around that era, but to my pleasant surprise Minx is a total hoot.”

• Decider on Season 2: “Minx improves on a fun first season with an even more fun and ambitious second season, with an ensemble that’s clicking and meaty (pun intended) storylines for everyone in that ensemble.”
