TV’s LGBTQ character count dropped 25% in 2025–26, GLAAD finds
GLAAD counted just seven trans characters, down from 33, all on shows that aren’t returning.
TLDR
The wider TV slowdown doesn’t tell the whole story: GLAAD’s 2025–26 report counted 369 LGBTQ characters, down from 489, a 25% decline compared with roughly 15% fewer series. Trans characters fell from 33 to seven, all on shows that aren’t returning. That isn’t a forecast of zero trans characters next season.
