Liberal party leader Jeremy Thorpe's (Hugh Grant) gay affairs begin to emerge into the public domain, and he is willing to go to any lengths to keep them secret. But good luck looking away from the train wreck. Matthew Lopez’s feature directorial debut about the love affair between the Prince of England (Nicholas Galitzine) and the son of the U.S.
president (Taylor Zakhar Perez) is effectively a big-budget fanfiction, something Perez himself has admitted proudly. A Very English Scandal sheds light on some of the dark history of homophobia in Britain, as well as featuring the likably proud and unashamed Norman Scott, played by Ben Whishaw.

So when one comes along, we watch, however painful. Notaro co-created One Mississippi with Diablo Cody and starred alongside Noah Harpster, John Rothman, and Stephanie Allynne.
The 1975 film version and the TV series both worked to capture the dreaminess and ambiguity of the original novel. Scenes from the lives of the young women before the crash are intercut with a future in which they are being interrogated by the FBI for their involvement with The Dawn of Eve. The Wilds dives deep into characterization while granting us a series of revealing interactions among the women.
By the end of the first season, neither of them are out to anyone, much less each other, and their struggles to understand their sibling even as they go through many of the same problems makes for one of TV’s most brutually realistic portrayals of queer adolescence. Select seasons are available on Amazon Prime, providing a sample for anyone looking to check out the popular show.

I'm a huge fan of TV so I've found the perfect job, writing about telly shows and interviewing major television, film and sports stars for over 30 years.
The teen series was about a high school glee club and detailed its members' turbulent love lives and personal struggles at home. But Joey Soloway’s arresting Jewish family comedy was hugely influential in its popularity at the time (it first premiered in 2014 and was Prime TV’s first hit), and it told entertaining trans stories in a nuanced and wide-ranging way that hasn’t been replicated since.
A story about identity at its heart, Homecoming’s second season featured incredible performances from Janelle Monae, Hong Chau, and Joan Cusack as well as a heartbreaking love story between our baffled protagonist and the mysterious and morally complicated Audrey.

Based on the book by John Preston and set throughout the 1960s and ‘70s, the limited series stars Hugh Grant as Jeremy Thorpe, a Liberal MP who will stop at nothing to hide his relationship with Norman Josiffe, played by the always-excellent Ben Whishaw. Tracy Oliver’s two-season dramedy about four friends living in the titular neighborhood features out-and-proud tech exec Tye (Jerrie Johnson), while fashion designer Quinn (Grace Byers) begins exploring her own queer identity as the show progresses.
