Black Lightning
Annisa and Grace
In the Arrowverse’s Black Lightning, Anissa Pierce (Nafessa Williams) follows her inner compass, wherever it points. As the daughter of a retired superhero, she finds the two parts of her identity converging: being a lesbian and having superpowers. As Anissa embarks on her journey of fighting for justice and equality, she meets Grace (Chantal Thuy), a metahuman with shape-shifting abilities, who struggles to embrace her own powers until she meets Anissa.
Fear Street Trilogy
Fear Street Part 1: 1994
Literally traveling to hell and back for the love of your life sets the bar pretty high for romance. Based on R.L. Stine’s YA horror novels, the Fear Street movies center around a supernatural curse haunting the town of Shadyside, Ohio. In the first entry, we’re introduced to Deena (Kiana Madeira) and Sam (Olivia Scott Welch), who split up when Sam moves away to a different town. Although Deena is heartbroken, when her ex is seemingly haunted by an evil specter, she’s willing to do anything to save her.
Fear Street Part 2: 1978
Fear Street Part 3: 1666

Sense8
Nomi and Amanita
From chosen families to trans representation, the Wachowski-led series is a celebration of queerness. It follows the lives of eight strangers who have the power to telepathically experience each other’s lives. Among the group is Nomi Marks (Jamie Clayton), a trans “hacktivist” who uses her abilities to jump through government loopholes to obtain documents for her trans friends. Nomi’s girlfriend, Amanita (Freema Agyeman), is a cisgender lesbian who tags along for the adventures.
DC's Legends of Tomorrow
Sara and Ava
The Legends, a group of outcasts and misfits, already have enough on their plate trying to operate and maintain the world’s timeline. No wonder Legends leader Sara Lance (Caity Lotz) just wants to protect her team and has no patience for any bureaucratic bullshit. Tensions rise when Time Bureau agent Ava Sharpe (Jes Macallan) comes along to enforce the rules that Sara doesn’t have time for, but the heated energy between the women quickly grows into something more. Everyone knows there’s nothing hotter than enemies who eventually become lovers.

Black Mirror
Yorkie and Kelly (“San Junipero”)
Black Mirror is known for its unsettling — and often downright disturbing — cautionary tales about how technology ruins lives. But its “San Junipero” episode is a respite from the series’ haunting themes, proving that heaven is a place on earth where queer love can thrive. Yorkie (Mackenzie Davis) is a shy and introverted woman who meets party girl Kelly (Gugu Mbatha-Raw) at a San Junipero nightclub. Their budding romance grows as the two women travel through consciousness and time to be with each other. With flashing neon lights and an ’80s-infused soundtrack, “San Junipero” is a nostalgic and romantic tale about exploring sexuality and finding love.
