Our Year In Review is now up! Covering the period from June 1 2017 – May 31 2018, our statistics team compiled a watch list of over 350 shows, and gathered some of stats on queer female TV representation.
Compare to last year’s results using the category breakdowns, or dive into the full statistics report with the source data available below the infographics.
Out of 4,403 characters across the top 100 films of 2017, none were transgender.
Out of 400 popular films since 2014, only two featured a leading character from the LGB community and 81 of the top 100 films in 2017 didn't include a single speaking role for an LGBT character.
