Record number of LGBT characters on US TV, study says
A new report has found LGBT representation on US TV is at a high, with nearly 12% of regular characters who are LGBT, up 2.8% from last year.
Don't be so greedy to keep playing slot wallet because you want more money. Because we can't know what the round we're playing is going to continue.
The numbers come from a study by LGBT media advocacy group GLAAD.
But the study also found there were shortfalls and missing opportunities to tell a wider range of stories about LGBT characters.
The "Where We Are on TV" analysis looked at overall diversity of shows, focusing on the US.
The report examined broadcast TV, which is free, cable TV, which is paid for and streaming platforms - mentioning popular shows such as Sex Education, Euphoria and Killing Eve for positive representation.
The breakdown
Out of 775 series-regular characters on broadcast TV, 11.9% are LGBT, making up 92 characters, with an additional 49 in recurring roles.
Lesbian characters, such as Batwoman on CW, represented the majority of LGBT characters on broadcast and cable.
Gay men on screen saw a decrease by 5% on broadcast and 3% on cable compared to last year.
Bisexual representation such as Loki in Disney+'s Marvel series Loki, made up 29% of all the LGBT characters on broadcast, cable and streaming - an increase of 1%.
More streaming
The streaming services analysed this year expanded from Amazon, Netflix and Hulu to include Apple TV+, Disney+, HBO Max, Paramount+ and Peacock as well.
On these platforms, there were 358 LGBT regular and recurring characters, with representation of LGBT people from ethnic minorities increasing to 49%.
Streaming services also surpassed broadcast and cable networks in portraying transgender characters, with 26 trans characters, "triple the number of characters appearing on either broadcast or cable", in streaming shows, according to the report.
In total, there were 42 regular and recurring transgender characters tracked across all three platforms - up from 29 last year.
