– Netflix counted the highest number of LGBTQ characters across streaming services and FX counted the highest number of LGBTQ characters across cable networks.
GLAAD, the LGBTQ media advocacy organization that releases an annual analysis of representation on TV, revealed its “Where We Are on TV” report Thursday and it contains some very good news: 2018 saw a record-high percentage of LGBTQ series regulars on broadcast television.
And for the first time, there are more LGBTQ people of color (50 percent) on TV than white LGBTQ people (49 percent) on broadcast television.
– More LGBTQ characters are in leading roles than ever before with shows like The Red Line, Charmed, Vida, and more putting LGBTQ characters front and center.
