#dramedies

I saw plenty of "there is no shows with lgbtq+ protagonists, if there are, they are dramas with no comedy and someone dies". Let's make a list with fresh shows that fills this demand. 

 - comedies 

- not for/about teens 

- full force lgbtq+ representation 

- zero queer deaths 

- good ratings

"This is going to hurt", 2022- (?)

imdb 8.5 

comedy, drama, no queer deaths, explicit sex scenes, bitterness 4/5 

warning: blood, medical, not for pregnant or recent mums 

"Set on labour ward with all its hilarity and heart-lifting highs but also its gut-wrenching lows, the show delivers a brutally honest depiction of life as a junior doctor on the wards, and the toll the job can take back home." 

The protagonist is gay with morally grey personality, the most of the show is about his struggles with demanding job and falling personal life.

“Gentleman Jack”, 2019-ongoing now 

imdb 8.2 

period drama, comedy, biography, gnc lesbian protagonist, no queer deaths, mature sex scenes, bitterness 3/5  

"A dramatization of the life of LGBTQ+ trailblazer, voracious learner, and cryptic diarist Anne Lister."

Anne Lister is morally grey, 40+ yo gender non conforming (to the point that your trans friends will find something close to heart) woman, searching for rich life partner. The show is about her struggles with need for adventures, duty of landowner and forbidden romances.

"A very English scandal", 2018 

imdb 7.7 however: Emmy, Bafta, Golden Globes, 24 more awards 

comedy, crime, biography, no queer deaths, explicit sex scenes, bitterness 3/5

"British Liberal Party leader Jeremy Thorpe is accused of conspiracy to murder his gay ex-lover and forced to stand trial in 1979." 

Sounds boring, but Hugh Grant and Ben Whishaw makes this political drama an entertaining story full of hilarious scenes. Both characters are morally grey and it's impossible to hate them as they probably deserve.

"Good omens", 2019-2023 

imdb 8.0 (+Bafta, Hugo, 3 other awards) 

comedy, fantasy, no queer deaths, no queer sex scenes (only dating), bitterness 1/5  

"In the beginning and eleven years ago, two immortal beings decide that it might not be time to start an Apocalypse." 

The main couple of angel and demon, who you can consider protagonists of the show and whose relationship is one of the plot moving tool, has no scenes with intimacy shown, but profoundly queer and humorous.

"Our flag means death", 2022- (?)

imdb 8.0 

Comedy, action, adventure, no queer deaths, censored sex scenes, bitterness 2/5  

"The year is 1717. Wealthy landowner Stede Bonnet has a midlife crisis and decides to blow up his cushy life to become a pirate. It does not go well. Based on a true story."

A teen film that over 35′s can watch!

(Hopefully by this point you’ve finished all 104 minutes of 'The Edge of Seventeen’ , the kind of person who isn’t bothered by spoilers, or are just deciding if you still want to keep watching.)

Just finished binge watching iron ladies and I don’t know if to feel empowered or empowered. I felt like I went in in circles soemtimes but I have to admit I was entertained by it for a while and I love the accuracy of striving to be a strong woman but still having certain insecurities and clinging on to our stubbornness. I still love “Perfect Match” and “Accidentally in love”. Guess I’m a sucker for comedies. So for me it’s a 7/10 for entertainment but I feel like it lacks the sprinkles.

CBS Monday’s 1 hour    Political Thriller/dramedy   I’ve seen a variety of genres throughout this in the premier, so if you are not into all the political speak you may enjoy the underlying mystery. Now I’m not one for politics at all yet watching a tv show based around it. Frankly all the Republican democrate crap… gives me a head ache (and get a little confused on what each platform stands for,…
