Editor's note: This article was updated Hello and welcome to your monthly guide on identity new streaming items coming to your television sets / computer screens in January , chock-full of lesbian, bisexual, queer and trans characters! Oddly, I didn&#;t get any gay vibes, let alone any homosexual information, from the January slate being served up at Amazon Prime, Peacock, Paramount+ or Apple, so I am hoping there&#;ll be a surprise or else they will produce it up to us in February. In the meantime; Netflix, Hulu and HBO Max still hold room for the homosexuals, bisexuals and pansexuals in their hearts this month. The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo () – January 1 I believe we are as a community familiar with this series, in which Rooney Mara plays traumatized tough bisexual investigator Lisbeth Salander, helping Mikael Blookvist solve the year-old murder of his niece. REBƎLDE: Season One &#; January 5 This series is based on a Mexican telenovela by the same name which was a massive punch, spawning an actual pop group that released nine studio albums. Netflix&#;s REBƎLDE follows Considering the quality, quantity, and diversity of films distributed under the Netflix banner, GLAAD has given Netflix a FAIR grade. Netflix saw some standout films this year featuring leading LGBTQ characters: Rustin, the story of gay civil rights activist Bayard Rustin, giving the historical figure his due; Nimona, an animated kids and family clip featuring a gay passion story in the center of a fantasy world; and Nyad, the story of a lesbian player overcoming the odds. Beyond these films, though, Netflix’s programming still needs significant improvement in terms of LGBTQ representation, specifically in films where LGBTQ characters are relegated to supporting roles. This is most prominent in romantic comedies, where queer stories simply remain to bolster straight narratives, such as in Happiness For Beginners, You People, and Your Place or Mine. As GLAAD specifically called out this issue in the previous analyze, it is particularly disheartening that Netflix did not feature any films in this genre with LGBTQ leads.
