The 28 Best LGBTQ+ TV Shows to Stream Right Now
[ad_1]
It seems ludicrous that there was a time, not too long ago, when LGBTQ+ TV shows weren’t standard fare. Perhaps one would come out every couple of years, run for a few seasons, make history, and then fizzle out. Thankfully, the television landscape has changed tremendously in the past decade. There are shows that have queer characters, shows that are inherently queer, and shows that lampoon major corporations trying to pass off amorphous goo as queer representation. What more could you ask for?
If you’ve found yourself looking to watch something that falls into one of those categories (or somewhere in between), we’ve compiled the best LGBTQ+ TV shows that are streaming now. From RuPaul’s Drag Race to Harley Quinn, you can find them all below.
28. Queer as Folk (2022)
For better or worse, the short-lived reboot of Russell T Davies’s groundbreaking series seemed determined to atone for the original’s soapy depiction of queer life. Starring Devin Way, Fin Argus, and Ryan O’Connell, Queer as Folk follows a diverse New Orleans community in the aftermath of a tragedy that recalls the 2016 Pulse shooting. If you don’t mind such trauma underscoring this entertainingly messy web of characters, it’s a drama worth dipping into.
27. Sex Education (2019)
The relationship between Sex Education’s Eric (Ncuti Gatwa) and Adam (Connor Swindells) has its issues, but Gatwa is such a standout in the acclaimed series that most are worth overlooking. He’s just that magnetic. The show otherwise follows Otis (Asa Butterfield), a high school student who sets up an underground sex therapy clinic with another one of his classmates (Emma Mackey). Mixing frank discussions with impossible-to-hate characters, Sex Education has been a boon for Netflix since its debut—and it’s never too late to hop on the bandwagon.
26. Drag Me to Dinner (2023)
