I’ve been feeling down lately and I started re-watching futurama for some good nostalgia, but it keeps making transphobic jokes which is kind of just making me feel worse. Anyone have any suggestions for comfort shows to watch?

      I’ll be the one to spoil IT Crowd, it has at least one poor portrayal of a trans woman. Avoid anything associated with Graham Linehan.

        Agreed about IT Crowd. I watched it for the first time like 2 years ago and there was a whole episode that was awful.

      Drawn Together

      No, oh definitely not. It’s funny but it has anti-everything jokes, including anti trans. They’re an equal opportunity offender against all groups.

      DS9

      Unless you count the gender bending jokes surrounding Trill issues that have been made once or twice. Or the time Kira ruined a deal Quark was trying to make by editing his hologram program of her to have his head on a female body to disgust his buyer.

      Actually curious what people think about those, along with Drew’s brother on the Drew Carry show.

        Sorry I can’t please everyone. Maybe ST: Discovery in more you speed?

        If you have a problem with Drew’s brother you have some issues of your own.

        Guys literally brought up issues regarding trans people, like getting employment. Remember how Steve got the job in the perfume(?) section?
