The first thing that came to mind when I thought of LGBT entertainment was "Husbands, the Series”. I hope it’s okay to link to a commercial venture – I’m not involved in it other than being a fan.
"Husbands" is about a couple who goes to Las Vegas, gets
plastered, and wakes up the next morning, hungover and married. But the couple in question are two men who
have been dating for a short time, and who went to Vegas to celebrate marriage
equality becoming law in the US (so it’s set in what I hope is the very near
future).
The first season is made up of eleven tiny episodes, written by JaneEspenson (BTVS, Dollhouse, Caprica, Torchwood) and Brad Bell, whom you may know
as Cheeks. The cast and crew are
white-hot bundles of talent.
I cannot recommend "Husbands" highly enough. Each 2-3 minute episode will make you laugh,
break your heart, maybe make you cry, then make you laugh again. The only thing I don’t like about it is that
I want more, more, more!
But they are filming a second season, yay! So there *will* be more Husbandy goodness
coming soon. In the meantime, you can
watch the first season, and here’s the first episode, to get you started:
Oh this looks so good! I will for sure watch it!
