“Some of the year’s biggest hits have been LGBTQ-inclusive series – including HBO’s The Last of Us, ABC’s Abbott Elementary, FX’s What We Do in The Shadows, Showtime’s Yellowjackets, Netflix’s Stranger Things, and HBO Max’s Hacks, to name only a few,” she wrote in a statement.

Those shows aren't successful because they have LGBTQ characters, they're successful because they either have good writing or they're adaptations of beloved franchises (e.g. Last of Us wasn't successful because of gay characters, it was successful because it had a baked-in audience from the game).

Good for TV, though. I'm sick of LGBT characters just being ham-handedly shoved in for visibility's sake. I don't mind a good story that has LGBT characters, but we rarely get that. We get mediocre writing with pandering LGBT stuff shoved in. Then we're told we're bigots if we criticize it.
