Happy Pride! On the occasion of the March of the Pride 2017, small return on the characters LGBT who marked the small screen.
June 24 is the day to celebrate tolerance and love on the occasion of the March of Pride in Paris, which today celebrates the LGBT community – lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender. And even if love and tolerance is good for the whole year, today we offer you a small list of some of the most emblematic LGBT characters on the small screen . Obviously it’s impossible to quote them all, do not hesitate to add your favorite LGBT characters in the comments!
Sophia Burset – Orange is the New Black
Interpreted by the talented Laverne Cox, Sophia Burset is a transgender character in Orange is the New Black that shows both confidence and vulnerability. Jenji Kohan made the right choice to cast a transgender actress to play his character and we can only thank him because it allowed us to discover the fantastic Laverne Cox . With her scathing replies and her big heart, Sophia quickly established herself among our favorite characters in the series.
Kurt Hummel – Glee
Difficult to talk about the iconic LGBT characters without mentioning the unforgettable Kurt Hummel even years after the end of Glee. Flamboyant, sensitive, creative and passionate, Kurt scored the small screens with his unique voice and ambition up to Rachel’s . We admit to you that the series and its scenarios completely burned do not miss us more than that, but as far as its characters is another story …
Willow Rosenberg – Buffy
After Xander and Oz, Willow finally found shoe to her foot with Tara and this for our greatest pleasure, although … here . And by being part of a cult series, one necessarily becomes one of the cult lesbians of the small screen . Well before many series, Buffy proposed a girlfriend to one of her heroines and we thank her for showing the way.
Titus Andromedon – Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt
Hey, hilarious, fan of Beyonce … Words to describe Titus Andromedon are not lacking but yet you are assured that the best way to get an idea is to go see him in Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt . With his gates to die of laughter and his super advice for Kimmy, hard to find a character more striking than him.
Callie Torres – Gray’s Anatomy
Bisexual assumed, Callie Torres may have left Gray’s Anatomy but she has not left our hearts so far (snif) . A worthy representative of the “B” in LGBT, Callie will remain in history not only for being part of one of the most cult medical series on the small screen – yes, with Emergencies – but also for this replica no less cult.
Lexa – The 100
Unfortunately, Lexa did not last long in The 100. But the huge bad buzz that Jason Rothenberg picked up after his death is enough to put it on our list . Yes, because Lexa’s death did not just make thousands of fans cry, including us. It was not only followed by the creation of a site to raise awareness about the representation of LGBT in the series ( wederservedbetter.com ) but also a convention inspired by her couple formed with Clarke in the series. La Clexacon brought together dozens of celebrities to raise awareness about the performance on the small screen and elsewhere. That’s what we call legacy .
Jack Harkness – Torchwood
Pansexual assumed and hero of his own spin-off from the legendary Doctor Who series, Captain Jack Harkness has scored the small screen and hearts of fans forever. By making him a non-heterogeneous character, the screenwriters have made it a symbol for the LGBT community in the UK and, moreover, hard not to mention it.
Shane McCutcheon – The L Word
Looking very Shane today . Yes, when we talk about the LGBT characters who have scored the small screen, the heroine androgynous The L Word is a bit impossible to circumvent . So confident in her that she becomes irresistible for all her conquests, we confess that what we like most about Shane is her unlimited loyalty and her sense of friendship.
Here is a small non-exhaustive list of some of the LGBT characters who have scored the small screen. Even though many names still come to mind (Annalize Keating, Santana Lopez, Nomi Marks, Oberyn Martell and so on), we do not forget that the LGBT community is still largely underrepresented in the series and we hope Although things will end up changing! What do you think LGBT characters have marked you?

The series with a good LGBT representation is here

sivertime — Sat, 13 May 2017 18:45:52 +0000

Representation is good. Good performance is better! A short guide to LGBT friendly series that do good.
Representation is a concept that looks simple enough but that, apparently, is always as hard to apply for some showrunners. As they say, it takes everything to make a world and see lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender characters in the series, it always brings a certain touch of realism and open-mindedness some of whom would do well to take inspiration . Yes, the series with straight white men in lead is nice, but it feels good to see something else also not? We propose you a small list of LGBT friendly series in which the representation is not only there, but more importantly, realistic or happy or better: the 3 at the same time.
Gray’s Anatomy
In Gray’s Anatomy , everyone is treated the same way and that is his strength. Airplane accident, amputation, car accident, risky childbirth and other horrors that the fans know well … The characters can be straight, bi, gay or other, Shonda Rhimes does not give anybody a gift and it’s nice to see – finally Way of speaking . Yes, via Callie, Arizona or even couples of patients of the same kind, the series shows us that it is possible not to define its characters by their sexual orientation , without passing it over in silence. Thanks Shonda!
The L Word
Everything is in the title but since the word is still a bit scary today, it is said with you: lesbian – but it also works for love, lust and other themes according to the interpretation of each . Completed for several years – is also expected over – The L Word we sometimes delves with great detail in circles lesbians in Los Angeles with Bette, Tina, Alice, Shane, Dana and others. But that’s not all, as Max, a transgender person, also plays an important role in showing us some of the difficulties transgender people face. Despite a lot of clichés and stereotypes sometimes annoying, The L Word is above all a way to immerse completely in a world where ”
Faking It
Faking It is proof that MTV can do very good with not much. Small (and talented) casting, simple story, original pitch of departure and teenagers endearing: this is the recipe for the success of the series which ended in 2016 . With Amy discovering her bisexuality and her nascent love for her BFF while rejecting the labels, Shane who assumes her colorful homosexuality, Lauren who educates on her intersexuality and Noah, discreet transgender, the representation there is at the top and all delicacy. In short, it is only pleasure.
Transparent
Despite a major negative point since the transgender character of the series is not a transgender actress, Transparent remains a small nugget to be enjoyed with pleasure. His freed and sometimes a bit crazy characters have something out of the ordinary and show that there is really no shame in being a different hair.
Looking
All the good things have an end but Looking’s was perhaps a little too premature and this is his biggest flaw. With Jonathan Groff charming as Patrick as possible , Looking takes us on a tour of the gay community of San Francisco and his love dramas, mixing humor and touching scenes.
sense8
One only has to look at a few episodes to realize that Sense8 is THE definition of self-acceptance and love for all . Tolerance and solidarity are at the heart of the Netflix series and there is nothing to say, nothing to see the sensates pick up with a single voice “What’s Up” to warm your heart on days of great sorrow ( And the others). All we have to do is to hope that, like them, we all one day come to put our differences aside and retain only the essential. Yes, we can always dream …
Obviously these are not the only series that include LGBT characters in their stories in an adroit way since Queer as Folk is also a cult of the genre, How to Get Away with Murder proves that network chains can show a lot if the will is there . And Shameless US , Orange is the New Black , Wynonna Earp and others still extend the list, do not hesitate to share your favorites! So, what do you think ?

The 100, Gray’s Anatomy, Supergirl, HTGAWM ..: The LGBT characters that marked the year 2016!

sivertime — Sun, 01 Jan 2017 18:18:38 +0000

The diversity in the series gradually comes to make a place and this year, many LGBT characters have made talk about them!
Happy New Year ! That’s it, the year 2017 is here and we wish you lots of good things and new binge-watcher series with pleasure. Before you start talking about all the new products, it offers even a small balance sheet of the television 2016 by focusing particularly LGBT characters – lesbians, gays, bisexuals, transgender . Then we came back there some time on LGBT characters that were missed for various reasons, today we return to those who marked the year, by their absence, or simply leaving their existence. We invite you to talk about your favorite characters in the comments since we obviously had to make a few choices.
Lexa – The 100
We think of Lexa (Alycia Debnam-Carey) in the first place since we must admit it, his death remained in the throat. As brutal and unjust, yet it was the engine of a revolution of the fans who believe that #Lexadeservedbetter – Lexa deserved better – and by extension that LGBT fans also deserve better than to see the little characters Represent them on television die one after the other. In short, either because of the controversy created after his death or with his chemistry with Clarke, Lexa has marked 2016 .
Speaking of Callie (Sara Ramirez), it is mainly from her departure from Gray’s Anatomy that we speak because the small screen loses a colorful bisexual character who assumed and breathed the joy of living. But Sara Ramirez decided otherwise and it is with sadness that we saw half of the former couple Calzona – Callie and Arizona – to New York . But we do not lose hope to see her again as a guest-star in the suite!
With his coming out a little late, his crush on Maggie and her poignant discussions with relatives, either his mother or Kara, Alex (Chyler Leigh) made a successful entry in LGBT characters in 2016 and wait to see grow further in the rest of the season 2 Supergirl .
It’s been almost three seasons that we know them and three seasons we adore them. Connor (jack falahee) and Oliver (Conrad Ricamora) continues to be a gay couples hottest small screen and break taboos by proving that love is love , no matter the kind of people who experience despite the Censors this year, particularly in Italy.
The arrival of Trevor (Elliot Fletcher) in Season 7 Shameless Us – whose criticism of our season finale is available on melty – has not only enabled Ian Gallagher (Cameron Monaghan) to find some stability but also to the series To introduce a little bit of diversity. After his “trouple” consisting of two women and a man and in addition to Ian and Mickey, two gay characters, it is a transgender character that the writers have introduced in the series. We welcome their choice to have cast a transgender actor to play it and we are glad to see it again on our small screens after the cancellation of Faking It in which Elliot Fletcher interpreted the sympathetic Noah.
Magnus (Harry Shum Jr) and Alec (Matthew Daddario) marked the year with a passionate kiss shared on Freeform to the delight of many fans and after turning around for a while. Love triumphed social norms and it is still a good screen representation that gives us wait to see more tomorrow on the American channel !
Crazy Ex-Girlfriend continues its diversity and destruction of cliches with this year’s coming out of Darryl Whitefeather (Pete Gardner) and his statement to “White Josh” (David Hull). By showing that there is no age to make her coming out and that feelings prevail over the rest, Darryl continues to give us balm to the heart, all in song and good humor.
Clarke Griffin (Eliza Taylor), the bisexual the most badass of the little one Screen, nor Cosima Niehaus (Tatiana Maslany) who still shines in Orphan Black or Tara Chambler (Alanna Masterson) still as endearing in The Walking Dead. Titus Andromedon (Titus Burgess) continues to show us that gay shots can be used wisely in Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt and Root (Amy Acker) and Sameen Shaw (Sarah Shahi) Even in the most difficult circumstances in Person of Interest. Finally special mention also to Sophie Burset (Laverne Cox) and Poussey Washington (Samira Wiley) Orange is the New Black , or even Maura Pfefferman (Jeffrey Tambor) to represent the diversity always with great accuracy and strength . We do not forget that small screens also shape the minds and we hope to see more representation and especially more happy endings for the LGBT characters in 2017 and in the years to come! And you, what LGBT characters have you scored?

The day when … Shadowhunters conquered my heart with the Malec couple!

sivertime — Wed, 28 Dec 2016 20:10:00 +0000

You too, have you had a favorite for Shadowhunters? You love the Malec couple and you can not do without it? Excellent, I think we’ll have a lot to say!
Hello everyone! I hope you are well and that you have enjoyed the good food and the gifts you received at Christmas. In this qu’ensoleillée also cold day, I decided to talk about the new series Freeform , Shadowhunters. A television adaptation of Cassandra Clare’s novels, the show has played an important role on the cable channel and there is no need to deny that the producers and executives of Freeform hoped that the success would be equal to that of Pretty Little Liars Locomotive of the chain but which will disappear in a few months. It is a slightly exaggerated confidence that offered Freeform this adaptation which has all the ingredients of a fantastic teen show on The Vampire Diaries . And we will admit that the cast is endowed with an immense talent.
In addition to the familiar face of Harry Shum Jr who had enchanted Glee’s filming trays with his incomparable grace, the others had not yet broken into the middle and thus invited themselves for the first time to the front row of a series Televised. On this side, the bet is clearly successful as the alchemy works between each member of the cast. However, the plots have started slowly and it was not until a few episodes to identify the exact potential of this show . It must be said that Freeform is rather novice in the fantastic genre. Indeed, the chain formerly named ABC Family is trying to take a real turn and try to break away from the family dramas that have nevertheless been its trademark for years. Between Switched at Birth, The Fosters and The Lying Game, nothing predisposed them to attempt this revival as opposed to their roots.
Nothing surprising therefore that the startup was long. Nevertheless, with an endearing heroine and intrigues more and more worked, the series knew how to channel and find herself. That said, we are not going to lie, hard to believe that Shadowhunters would have the same flavor without Magnus and Alec who simply knew conquer my heart. I found the series cute, unpretentious and rather sympathetic but I was also not packed. But when Magnus started to be put forward, I was quickly transported. The warlock is undoubtedly the heart and soul of the series. Sometimes sensitive and charming, sometimes badass and cunning, Magnus never ceases to surprise us and make us want to discover it. In a world like ours where everything should go in boxes, Magnus explodes and blooms in all its differences and all its pleasures . We like his good mood, his frankness, his humor and we especially like to discover another facet of Harry Shum Jr clearly under exploited in Glee. I had never been so astonished at the talent of an actor. Nothing could have been imagined that behind a faculty to move simply extraordinary hid also a potential of acting as formidable.
But where Magnus is an assumed hedonist, Alec is the complex character par excellence. Alec resembles us and drags us into the difficult journey of his introspection because that is exactly the strength of the first season of Shadowhunters. She was able to describe with authenticity the way that many of us go through to find ourselves and begin to love each other. More than a linear fantasy series which seeks to follow a battle of the Gentiles against the wicked Shadowhunters keeps pace with the times and does not seek to lie or cheat . Magnus and Alec, divine products of the imagination of Cassandra Clare, thus offer a place in gold in the show and do not cease to prove to us that they are the trump card of Shadowhunters.
I am not insensitive to other characters far away but I must admit that I feel a deep, eternal affection for Malec torque that was literally screaming at my screen, smiling like a sausage, laugh out loud, cry Emotions and proved once again that love will always be the most real magic of the universe. And yes, here I am again a good romantic decided to assume. But the real lesson of the show finally summed up in one sentence: our differences are our greatest wealth . So much to tell you that I’m waiting next week with unmistakable impatience so I can not wait to meet Clary, Jace, Alec, Magnus and the others for new adventures on Freeform.
That’s all for me meltynauts. Do not forget to subscribe to the “The Day Where …” folder if you want to relive the best TV moments of the past few months. Discover also the day … The Flashpoint revolutionized The Flash . As for me, I’ll meet you on January 11 for a new column and by then all take care of you <3 What do you think of Shadowhunters and torque Malec?
