5 Queer Fantasy Series You Can Watch Before House of the Dragon
Don’t let anyone tell you differently, but foreplay can be much more exciting than, er, actual sex. Consider it the perfect metaphor for the much-anticipated prequel to Game of Thrones, House of the Dragon, which premieres this Sunday on HBO. It’s been over three years since the mega-hit obsession signed off the air and our anticipation for the prequel is building and we’re almost ready to explode.
The new series is set almost 200 years before Game of Thrones, which centers on a civil war for the Iron Throne. The character we’re most excited to see is Rhaenyra Targaryen (played by Emma D'Arcy – who identifies as non-binary themselves) the princess at the heart of the prequel. We’re hoping that we might finally get the next queer icon that we deserve.
To hold you over until Sunday, here are five queer fantasy series to get you warmed up before the House of the Dragon’s debut.
'Lost Girl'
Though it's been a while since this series aired, Lost Girl changed fantasy queer culture forever. Bo Dennis, the protagonist of the series, is an unaligned bisexual succubus who had been living in the human world for most of her life before being discovered by the Fae (supernatural beings that resemble humans and feed off humans in different ways). Throughout the series, Bo is empowered by her sexuality.
Lost girl? More like found girl who knows who she is.
Available to stream on The CW.
‘Loki’
Considered the first official queer superhero in the Marvel Universe, this Disney+ series features Tom Hiddleston as the title character Loki. The series takes place after the events of Avengers: Endgame.
We learn that Loki is bi and genderfluid from a subtle conversation with a Loki “variant” named Sylvie when she begins talking about a relationship she’s been in with a postman. Sylvie then asks Loki about his relationship, essentially asking if it’s another prince or princess you’re after, to which he replies, a bit of both.
Available to stream on Disney+.
‘Wynonna Earp’
Wynonna Earp premiered during a rough period for queer characters, most of which would eventually be killed off. Enter Wynonna Earp in 2016, which promised to do the opposite: keep queer characters alive and let them thrive.
The series follows the great-great-granddaughter of famed lawman Wyatt Earp as she returns to her hometown after inheriting the power to send Revenants (resurrected demons killed by great-great-granddaddy) back to hell.
Perhaps though, the real heroine is Wynonna’s sister Waverly, who is not only there for her sister but bravely accepts her bisexuality after meeting openly-lesbian deputy sheriff, Nicole Haught. We know great-great-granddaddy Earp would be proud.
Available to stream on Netflix.
'Sense8'
This Netflix oh-so-queer and sexy series is about a group of eight people who find themselves telepathically linked, which enables the group, known as sensates, to share knowledge, feelings, and communicate with one another (and sometimes telepathically hook up). Ah, if we had one wish, amirite? Though the series has a lot of LGBTQ+ representation, the two that stand out are Lito, a gay man, and Nomi, a transgender lesbian woman, played by the incredible Jamie Clayton.
We’re sending you messages telepathically to watch this show now.
Available to stream on Netflix.
'Q-Force'
Though this animated series was sadly canceled after one season, at least you can binge the entire series before Sunday. The 10-episode animated comedy series followed Steve Maryweather (aka Agent Mary) who was ousted by the American Intelligence Agency when he came out as gay. Instead of disappearing into obscurity, Maryweather (voiced by Sean Hayes) assembles a group of queer superspies as they go on personal and professional adventures. Wanda Sykes voices expert mechanic Deb, so right away you know it has to be good. A group of queer superheroes? How do we get in on that?
Available to stream on Netflix.
