SUNAK APOLOGIZ FOR HISTORIC TREATMENT OF UK GAY VETERANS

There are episos on pneerg gay trans man and AIDS activist Lou Sullivan; S. What is: Be gay, do crime — as a gothic romance between vampir.

Why we like : Vampir have long been a metaphor for queerns, and Anne Rice’s Interview wh the Vampire — both her 1976 novel and the 1994 film adaptatn — were also so obvly gay. But that subtext be the leral text Rol Jon’s AMC seri, an adaptatn that fally lets the vampir be their big gay selv.

The seri follows Louis Pote du Lac (Jab Anrson, Grey Worm om Game of Thron) as he reunts the wild tal of his life as a wealthy gay Black vampire 1900s New Orleans and the lover pann of Ltat (Sam Reid). What mak this new eratn of Interview so pellg, though (apart om beg super gay, of urse), is how updat Rice’s origal material to offer sharp social mentary on race, class, and sexualy.

Our Flag Means Death is a ba-and-swch masterpiece that lur the dience wh the hilary of Wai's anachronistic wrg set agast the Goln Age of Piracy and traps 'em wh the reveal that OFMD is a gay romantic edy. Not only is this seri one of the most all-around lightful viewg experienc morn memory, but also offers a movg and nuanced look at LGBTQ love that actually lets a gay uple serve as the ma romantic storyle. And he's begng to thk he might be gay.

What is: A s about two gay men, their ex-wiv, and their we like : The world is a better place bee of Grace & Frankie. What is: An animated seri about an optimistic young girl bravg the dangers of a post-apolyptic Earth overn wh mutated we love : It's not often that you hear a character say "I'm gay" an animated show aimed at younger dienc, but that's exactly what happens Kipo and the Age of Wonrbeasts. A first for Bridgerton, Queen Charlotte featur the gay relatnship between two si characters, Reynolds (Freddie Dennis) and the one and only Brimsley (Sam Clemmett).

This show picts not jt homosexual and heterosexual relatnships well, but also nsirs asexualy wh re and grace. Every episo is packed wh outrageo humor targetg show bs, work/life balance, and the gay datg scene. It has also, perhaps most importantly, been a platform to tell stori that have ma gay, lbian, bisexual, trans, queer, tersex, and more people feel ls alone the world – to know there is a big and varied muny to which they belong.

They did so by beg the first work superhero TV show wh an LGBTQ+ lead (actrs and character), as is the se of the CW’s Batwoman, or featurg some of the earlit recurrg gay characters on Amerin TV, like Vcent Schiavelli’s Peter Panama on the short-lived The Corner Bar, or Billy Crystal’s Jodie Dallas on Soap. In this sectn you’ll also fd the first Disney Channel show to feature a gay ma character (Andi Mack), the first animated show to feature a same-sex marriage proposal (Steven Universe), and Pose, which broke ground wh s diverse, largely transgenr st, and for beg the seri on which Ja Mock beme the first transgenr woman of lor to direct and wre an episo of televisn.
