queer TV
Gay-themed television shows
Queer TV refers to television programming centered on LGBTQ+ characters, storylines, or themes.
The term encompasses shows created by and for queer audiences as well as mainstream programs featuring significant queer representation: We spent the weekend binging queer TV.
The phrase emerged as queer shifted from slur to reclaimed identity marker, and as streaming platforms expanded niche programming.
