While there, the newly instated, unusual lady landowner encounters a potentially dangerous romance with another woman , which she records in a cryptic diary that no one can decode. In addition to his own channels, he has also been working as a video editor and producer for several other YouTubers, who include Game Grumps, OneyPlays, biker planet and KitKatGaming, among other contributors. He has featured a few times in the videos of the aforementioned channels, which have also added to his wealth; he was part of the YouTube channel Markiplier too. • He began his YouTube channel “Kids w/ Problems” in 2008 and later started another channel called “SuperMega” in 2016.

March 2010: Affleck helped honor his friend at the Cinematheque award show.

As the sensates, Capheus , Sun , Nomi , Kala , Riley , Lito and Will (Brian J. Smith) all share a collective consciousness that allows them to communicate with each other as well as share language, skills and desires when they tap into their psychic link. Created by Zelda Barnz and her father, Daniel, who is an executive producer alongside his partner, Ben, the dramedy offers a remarkably authentic portrayal of a diverse group of high school students led by Chester and an unashamed exploration of modern sexuality. Betty, adapted from Crystal Moselle’s 2018 film, Skate Kitchen, follows a tight-knit group of queer and straight Gen Z girl skaters as they navigate the male-dominated world of skateboarding in New York City. While the ever-expanding Arrowverse on the CW features a number of out LGBTQ characters, Batwoman is the only one led by an out hero, first with Ruby Rose playing Kate Kane and then Javicia Leslie taking over as Ryan Wilder. And as the landscape has become more inclusive, especially thanks to the rise in streaming platforms and growing acceptance of the LGBTQ community, there’s been an explosion of queer shows, with each new one more authentic than the last.

While there are plenty of reality and unscripted series to entertain, for this list we stuck to scripted television that’s currently available to stream on demand, which encompasses some of our favorites that span over the past 30 years. But it’s certainly just the beginning, as we enter a new era of queer representation on screens of all shapes and sizes. We’ve certainly had plenty of ups and downs when it comes to representation. For years, deranged, perverse, and despicable homosexuals were on full display — especially from Ryan Murphy, who remains our most prominent culture czar when it comes to queer characters on TV. Sure he gave us Glee’s Kurt , followed by the astoundingly sensitive portrayal of trans people of color in Pose and his most-recent “fixing” of Tinseltown’s inequities in the inclusive Hollywood. But he’s also supplied us at least one murderous gay man on American Horror Story and too many crazies on Nip/Tuck to count.

He married fellow actress Kiley Casciano in December 2018, and they have since welcomed a daughter together. While she’s yet to go public with a significant other, the actress came out as queer in June 2021. Scroll through our gallery for more about theLegacies cast’s dating histories. Not to mention, Danielle has also gushed over exploring Hope’s sexuality asLegacies continues. There is no release date for the show year, but BBC describes the show as a show “where preconceptions will be challenged and dramatic decisions made.” They added that the show will unveil “whose sparks will ignite, whose eyes might wander, and who will end up together in the ultimate summer of love.” As of Spring 2020, Matt Rogers — a taken man — was bonding strongly with his boyfriend Jarred Frieder.

Before the internet and everyone having a device in their pockets, that was the way most of us casually absorbed images of desire and love. And yet, for decades, lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer people rarely ever saw displays of affection. That left a great swath of humanity desperate to see something that resembled their lives.

Early 1990s: The two were “drama geeks” in high school, and they got into acting together.

The pilot of the TV movie “Totally for Teens” did not do well, which led Matt Bennett to his next opportunity later that year. Think about the martyrdom involved in willingly agreeing to go on a show like The Bachelor or Love is Blind, knowing full well that the most likely outcome for you is a broken off engagement, or, if you’re one of the lucky ones, a few one-off Instagram sponsorships. It’s a personal sacrifice for our entertainment’s sake, and that’s not nothing.

Josh Dallas plays Ben Stone on “Manifest,” but this isn’t his first long-running television show. He also appeared on ABC’s “Once Upon a Time,” as Prince Charming, per IMDb. When he started on the show in 2011, he had been married to actor Lara Pulver since 2007, and the pair were “barely separated” when rumors about Dallas and his costar Ginnifer Goodwin began to circulate, according to E! But sparks flew between Dallas and Goodwin almost immediately, he shared with US Magazine in January 2020. While on Conan in 2019, Damon shared that he’d once been on the verge of getting beaten up by a bigger kid. At the last second, a school-age Affleck “tackled this dude off of me. Like, out of nowhere.” For Damon, Affleck hadn’t only spared him from a fight, he’d cemented their friendship.

Damon and Affleck did more than encourage each other to act — they were there for one another financially. “Ben Affleck and I actually had a joint bank account, and the bank account was money that we’d made doing local commercials and we could only use it on trips to New York to audition,” Damon said on CNN in 2011. He has stated that this attitude was only natural, as their friendship had always followed those rules.

“We’d take the train. Or sometimes we’d even take the airplane, back when there was the Eastern Shuttle or People’s Express,” he said. “It cost like $20 to fly and you could smoke on the plane. We were smoking like idiots because we thought we were really supposed to be grown-up. It was pitiful.” The turning point for the teens came in the mid-1980s when the two boys were playing football and Damon mouthed off to a much older and much bigger kid. Before he knew it, he was flat on his back with the other guy threatening him. What really brought them together was their determination to make it in the entertainment business.

The Bachelorette

This being a sitcom, he lies to keep up the charade — and hilarity ensues. O’Connell’s shortish series , is the sort of sitcom that may not have had a large platform before streaming opened the floodgates to more diverse storytelling. In that way, it’s breaking similar ground to the Sundance Now series This Close, from deaf actors Shoshannah Stern and Josh Feldman, about a straight woman and gay man who are besties looking for love and understanding. The fact that we’ve reached a moment when we now have access to these types of relationship-driven stories that make room for jokes and smiles is truly a milestone worth celebrating. High school drama — perhaps the greatest one-season wonder in TV history — was ahead of its time in many ways, but none more so than in its depiction of Rickie Vasquez, the queer friend of Danes’ Angela. Rickie wears makeup and hangs in the girls’ bathroom with Angela and Rayanne Graff.

Co-created by Steven Canals, the groundbreaking series follows the lives of Black and brown transgender women and gay men of the 1980s New York City ballroom scene. Jumping through time, the three seasons show how these chosen families navigated the AIDS/HIV epidemic and faced various tragedies that challenged them as a community. The Emmy-winning ensemble dramedy created by Jenji Kohan follows the many interlocking lives of women serving out prison sentences at the Litchfield Penitentiary. While featuring a number of bisexual, lesbian and trans characters, the series made history when Laverne Cox became the first transgender performer to earn an acting nomination for her performance as Sofia Burset. The third installment of the series follows Lena Waithe, who reprises her role as Denise, for a season solely focused on the breakout character and her relationship with Alicia as they navigate the ups and downs of marriage, struggles with fertility, and how they grow both together and apart.

In the image, the reality TVstar couldn’t wipe the smile off his face as he posed next to Kate. The astrophysicist, 35, shared a photo to Instagram on Saturday of himself and the Melbourne-based celebrity baker at the Formula 1 racing event in Melbourne. Based on the life of Cristina Ortiz Rodriguez, the Spanish limited series follows Valeria, who is in for the adventure of a lifetime when she meets her idol, the incomparable trans icon “La Veneno,” and begins to write her memoir. Led by Asa Butterfield as Otis Milburn, who becomes something of a sex therapist for his fellow students, Sex Education is a progressively and refreshingly honest series about teens navigating their sexual desires, identities and the pressures of high school. The Wachowskis’ ambitious drama tells the interconnected stories of eight strangers of different cultures, races, genders and sexualities.

Despite many allegations, it doesn’t seem like Ariana Grande and Matt Bennett ever had a serious romantic relationship. The fuel to these rumors began when Ariana Grande and Matt Bennett were pictured together in public multiple times in 2015. Matt Bennett would get his next acting show in the Comedy Central show Michael and Michael Have Issues, where he played the character of Greg the Intern. This is the show that propelled Bennett’s acting career and led him to get the opportunity of working on hit show Victorious. You will most likely recognize him from his most notable piece of work, which is his role as Robbie Shapiro on the Nickelodeon television Victorious. From Love is Blind to I Love New York, whatever your love life looks like, it can’t be this bad.

A short time later, when Affleck was hosting “Saturday Night Live,” he appeared to reply to his best friend’s comment, saying, “I can’t seem to recall which Chekhov play ‘The Bourne Supremacy’ is based on.” It’s hard to tell if the slight rift was personal or taken as a joke. Damon and Affleck were executive producers of the HBO series, which followed first-time filmmakers who competed for money to complete their projects.
