Hi guys, do you know any shows with relevant lesbian or bisexual characters that are either really good, or just older than 10 years… (The show, not the characters) Alternately, just some shows which are a little more LGBT focused than the “Standart”?

    Station 19 started in 2018, almost old enough, I thought it was really good, of you like fire fighter procedural dramas. Had strong gay, lesbian and bisexual characters. Kind of a spin off of greys anatomy.

    911 Lone Star, came out in 2020, three gay men and a trans man, I don’t think there were any lesbians, also a fire fighter drama.

    Greys Anatomy, 20 years old and still going, one lesbian and one bisexual main character (I’m only at season 10, can’t speak to it past that).

    Madam Secretary, came out in 2014, had one lesbian character- not really a main character though.

      Adding to add:

      Star Trek: Discovery is not old, but has great LGBTQ representation.

      Take My Wife (2016) “A show about lesbians who are married, staying actual lesbians who are married, and no one gets breast cancer!” They have since divorced. Both main characters are stand up comics irl.

      And speaking of stand up comics starting semi autobiographical sitcoms, One Mississippi (2015) is very good. 💖 Tig Notaro.

      Speaking of Tig, the Handsome podcast with Fortune Fiemster and Mae Martin is great.

      Speaking of Mae, Feel Good is not old, and we’ll not make you feel good, but it’s a semi autobiographical drama series about a bisexual comedian.

              The ending wasn’t great, I’ll give you that. But people who can’t scroll past the word discovery without shitting on it nearly always have let’s say, more demographically related reasons for their opinions. 😣

              I notice you contributed nothing to this conversation. Did you come here specifically looking for DISCO to share your enlightening opinions?
