However, it has a redemptive climax that, while mostly about Zendaya getting to see a great game of tennis, can be read as an extraordinary story of two near-soulmates (Mike Faist and Josh O’Connor) settling an adversarial tension and/or unrequited connection.
A shrewd filmmaker with a melodramatic vision that leaps off the screen here, Guadagnino presents a stylish and sexy sports drama/relationship puzzle box about long-felt betrayal and manipulation that’s unfathomably entertaining.
The Boyfriend is heartwarming, honest, earnest, and gentle, offering a new path for reality television that is sincere and touching rather than exploitative. The show raises countless questions, rarely offering clear answers. But from the opening sequence in which Smith’s Owen plays under the background of a giant parachute the color of the trans flags, the obvious subtext is barely “sub” — it’s just the text.
Jacob discusses a new partner, but the gender of them wasn't specified, normalizing that their gender identity didn't need to be shared. If Season 3 was a jolt of electricity, I’m expecting Season 4 to light up the whole grid.

Somebody Somewhere excels in portraying community care, emphasizing supportive, loving relationships outside the traditional family unit.
Do I still believe Ava and Deborah are secretly in love, despite nearly everyone in my life telling me I’m delusional?Well, yes!
Marco Calvani)
Writer/director Marco Calvani’s seaside melancholy romance, “High Tide,” follows Brazilian immigrant Lourenço (played by Calvani’s actual husband Marco Pigossi) adrift in Provincetown from a bad breakup and amid an expiring visa.
Nonetheless, the second season expertly delves into what it means to be alive (dead?), the pain of existence, and the messiness of love and human relationships.
Were cartoonish scribbles the best way to depict a character struggling with an eating disorder?
“Challengers” (dir. In its final season, Sort Of delves into Sabi’s medical transition, offering an intimate look at what this new chapter means for them.
Most touching is Sabi’s relationship with their family—both biological and chosen—and how the show explores the meaning of community and family, even when it’s messy, confusing, and painful.
Sort of.
1. Fantasmas
Network: Max
Status: No renewal or cancellation announcement yet
Watch on Max
Fantasmas is the pinnacle of Queer television.
It’s political, with each sketch offering a quirky yet profound invitation to view our world differently.
It also made tennis 2024’s horniest and most meme-able racket sport, and if that’s not gay, then I don’t know what is.
What begins as a clandestine flirtation with polyamory between three extraordinary tennis players reveals itself to be a story of competitive love that’s poly, yes — but also heavily heteronormative.
A mixed-media coming-of-age epic…a scatter-shot mainstream pop culture satire…a comic book villain and/or anti-comedy joke format origin story…this was the most kaleidoscopically impressive and impactful LGBT masterwork to reach audiences in 2024. Couples Therapy has always been an intense emotional experience, but this season, in particular, resonated on an even more profound level.
7. Hacks
Network: Max
Status: Renewed for Season 4
Watch on Max
Hacks has always been fearless in challenging and evolving its protagonists, pushing them to adapt in exciting ways.
At its core, Fantasmas critiques the suffocating grip of capitalism, particularly through its exploration of “proof of existence” and the harm of demanding identity validation in today’s world. We don’t need that right now.
