Nightgowns will run eight episodes, with each clocking in at under 10 minutes. “I’m always trying to shift it to other people, let’s look at the whole community,” Velour told GayTimes. “The phenomenon is really the community, it’s not these exceptional individuals. The phenomenon is also this amazing history of drag.”
How about we take this to the next level?

“Entitled Nightgowns, the new series,….” No no no. The show is not due anything. If you’re going to write professionally get your grammar straight. The series is TITLED Nightgowns. To be entitled means you’re due something or are owed something. When something is given a name then it’s said to be Titled.

@Chris, actually, Queerty is correct. Here “entitled” is the past participle of the verb to “entitle,” whose first meaning is to “give a title to,” with the second meaning being to “furnish with grounds for seeking or claiming something.” So you are confusing or conflating one English word which is actually distinct forms with distinct meanings: entitled as the past tense of “to entitle” vs. entitled as an adjective meaning “expecting something.”
“Title,” a noun, may also serve as an adjective or verb. “Titled nobility,” “He titled his story ‘Cats and Dogs,” etc. But “entitled,” a past tense verbal form, can mean the same thing as “titled.”
From the Merriam-Webster Online Dictionary.
