We want to hear from you!

Some TV shows that prominently feature LGBTQ+ characters are pretty mainstream — such as Heartstopper or Orange is the New Black. However, some of the best ones are seriously underrated.

For example, I'm obsessed with AMC's Interview with the Vampire. IMO, it updated Anne Rice's original novel in such a fresh way, and I can't wait for Season 3!

And you probably haven't tuned into Doctor Who since Matt Smith left the series, but both Jodie Whittaker and Ncuti Gatwa's recent runs as the Doctor had some really great (though ultimately heartbreaking, because it is Doctor Who) romantic storylines.
