Before the WGA writers strike and nominally sincere, Pride-branded content take hold, soak up the torrent of LGBTQ content premiering in May.
Streamers and studios appear to be gearing up for Pride Month early this year, as May offers a feast of queer content in the form of groundbreaking reality series, stand-up specials and poignant art films.
Netflix is unleashing a torrent of programming, with a new Anna Nicole Smith documentary; two sapphic-minded comedy titles; a new “Queer Eye”; and even a messy, highly commercial dating show. And other streamers have taken note: Hulu, for example, might have the most appealingly chaotic new series of the month with “Drag Me to Dinner,” a competition show that pits a large swath of “RuPaul’s Drag Race” alum against each other in an effort to test various hosting skills — and, surely, comedy chops.
While there’s also lighthearted programming to be found at the theater, including the erotic and joyful “Will-o’-the Wisp,” the month’s cinematic offerings skew a bit more sobering. Still, they’re not to be missed — especially a title like “Monica,” which stars Trace Lysette opposite the iconic Patricia Clarkson in what is being billed as a step forward in transgender storytelling.
Who knows what the future of entertainment holds, with the effects of the Writers Guild of America writers strike already being felt and nominally sincere, Pride-branded content right around the corner. But at least in May it’s all rainbows and sunshine.

A culture that caters to perverted, delusional schizophrenics won’t last long.
“Must see”? Why? Do we have to get a special card stamped proving we saw it in order to buy food in the marketplace or something?
Nearly everything coming out, so to speak, appears to have to have some homosexual component added. Mostly irrelevant to the story line. But they’re supporting. Or avoiding being labeled. 🤔🚽
Pride is a deadly sin for good reason. As a protest to pride month there should be Humility Month.
A show with gay comedy can be funny. I always thought Scott Thompson had some funny stuff. But alas, these shows are on Netflix and are going to be horrible. Just like shows about women and blacks, they are going to think they have to go no further than showing a woman or black person to have a hit. That the audience will be so thrilled to see a gay person, woman or black person on TV that they will excitedly tune in every week. People talk about “cutting the cable”. People are starting to “cut the streaming service” now too because everything on the major platforms is horrible.
Friends don’t let Friends watch TV.
All this programming directed to deviants. What are normal people supposed to watch?
I’m sorry, I thought this was Free Republic.
I wish this site had a “like button”.
Re-runs.
I really wonder how many in the LGBQ+ community watch this stuff without cringing and don’t find it patronizing or preachy. It’s ONE minority viewpoint, and pretty much always the same viewpoint, of a minority community. The activists and Hollywood allies are militant. They demand conformity and an echo of their agenda while spewing lies about their own embrace of diversity. Checking demographic boxes isn’t diversity. Viewpoint is diversity, experience is diversity. The Left never wants to allow or consider if it diverges or threatens their plans.
Not everyone in those groups is on board with transgender activists, targeting of children, living in bars, wrapping themselves in unicorns and rainbows, or experiencing new sexual partners every other night.
NBC—Nothing but Commies.

I’ll stick with NORMAL, thank you very much!
