This Super Bowl season, even Friday Night Lights is gay. But rewatchg the show recently, as I’ve e out as queer myself, I’ve had a major revelatn: This beloved seri is gay as hell. Midsommar has a secret trans narrative, Taylor Swift is Gaylor Swift, known heterosexual Lra Dern is “a gay, ” and the two straight characters om Euphoria are totally to each other.
The first gay characters appeared on prime-time TV 1967, the pilot episo of N. Often, their arcs were nfed to storyl that fed their queerns but ltle else— was rare to see a character break out of the realms of sex and love, g out, ternalized homophobia, trma, or vlence.
Te, ’s not as if gays have a monopoly on close iendships, the gged timacy of ntact sports, or a lot of the other tails. Comg across a tweet claimg that walkg fast is gay mak me feel nnected, if superficially, to other queer people. ” I get : I mean, iced ffee is gay now?

We n reimage The Sopranos as a show “for the gays” all we want, but the tth is that the only queer character, Vo Spatafore, is outed a gay bar and forced to hidg. Queerns is exclud entirely om Breakg Bad, which, throughout s five seasons, never once addrs dience spicns that Jse or Gtavo Frg are gay.
(In Season 6 of s spoff, Better Call Sl, we get what seems like a nfirmatn that G is gay.
