Celebrating characters whose identities are more than just subtext, this show will look at the many differing ways that LGBT/queer/trans* characters are represented in TV and film, and how fans interact with and reinterpret those representations. Expect fandoms big and small, and as many genres as we can squeeze into the slot. Note: the VJ feels that some vids in this vidshow may contain triggering content. VJ: such heights
