Gay tv series 2022
It&#;s difficult to summon any general or specific description of the LGBTQ+ television landscape in without feeling a nagging anxiety similar to one you might sense describing your bright future with a girl who might not even like you back — because if we learned anything about LGBTQ+ inclusive programming this year, it&#;s that we can&#;t really count on any of it to last. Of the 28 shows on this list, nine were cancelled and four have yet to be renewed. One of those cancelled shows, Minx, was renewed for a second season and already in production when HBO Max changed their minds, axed it, and announced its intention to extract its first season from the streaming service altogether. Only 11 titles on this list — 40% of the total — have been definitively renewed for additional seasons. (That said, we&#;re obviously more likely to vote hard for a show we&#;ll never have a chance to vote for again, so these lists do favor expired properties.)
That aside, it was another promising year for queer representation, including two of the year&#;s most notable LGBTQ+-focused shows that are
The 16 Best Gay TV Shows Of
Queer love will thrive no matter what, even in a capitalistic nightmare.
Severance, the Apple TV+ mystery about an office filled with workers who cannot remember (and are severed from) their outside lives, rapidly became one of the best shows of the year for a myriad of reasons. A haunting tale of grief, human will, and the horrors of the office job, the reveal had a surprising queer romance burgeoning that just added to its brilliance.
If John Turturro and Christopher Walken organism one of the year's best couples was on your bingo card, then give yourself a stamp; otherwise, you probably have heard a lot about Severance, which eagerly pulls anyone ready to dive down the office hallway horrors it has waiting in store.
Most shows are eager to throw everything at you, but Severance holds its breath, letting the tiny pieces of experience in the exhibit make for some of the year's most compelling television.

To celebrate the release of season two of I KISSED A BOY, we thought we'd take a look at some of the best queer TV shows available of BBC iPlayer right now. From hilarious gay sitcoms to queer reality tv and sapphic thrillers, here are 12 queer and Homosexual inclusive TV shows on hand to watch in the UK on the BBC iPlayer right now.
(All shows available in the UK at time of publishing.)
1. SMOGGIE QUEENS ( - present)
Set in the heart of Middlesbrough, SMOGGIE QUEENS is a heartwarming and often surreal northern sit-com following a group of LGBTQ+ friends in their day-to-day lives. It's exaggerated and ridiculous at times, but also a genuinely charming portrayal of being in the north-east of England. If you like your comedy with smatterings of queer joy and create family it's well worth a watch. The exhibit has also been commissioned for a second season.
LGBTQ+ rep: Queer Men, Homosexual Women
Genre: Sit-Com, Camp Comedy
Episode Run Time: 30m
2. I KISSED A BOY/I KISSED A GIRL ( - present)
I KISS The latest: Our new update welcomes English Teacher, Fantamas, Fellow Travelers, and Interview with the Vampire! Monitor these shows and more on Fandango at Home! TV has been instrumental in the LGBTQ+ rights movement and in changing attitudes towards the community. It has also, perhaps most importantly, been a platform to tell stories that have made gay, woman loving woman, bisexual, trans, queer, intersex, and more people touch less alone in the world – to grasp there is a huge and varied community to which they belong. One pioneering show at a time, groundbreaking character by groundbreaking character, TV and streaming series have given the world an understanding into the LGBTQ+ encounter, and provided LGBTQ+ people with reflections of their own lives – stories to laugh along with, to cry with, and to identify with. In this list of Homosexual TV shows, we underline shows that have broken ground, enlightened, and entertained. We&#;ve arranged the list into four categories: shows that were big TV firsts, or featured TV firsts; shows that center on LGTBQ characters or exposure
