Faking It (2014 – 2016)

“After numerous attempts of trying to be popular, two best friends decide to fake being lesbians. They are launched into instant celebrity status. Seduced by their newfound fame, Karma and Amy decide to keep up their romantic ruse; but Amy has more than popularity on her mind as she falls for Karma” (IMDB).

“In her interview Laverene Cox discusses the diverse representation of LGBTQ characters within Faking it and this is true. The show features a gay male character, a gay trans man, an intersex character who identifies as a girl, a girl constantly questioning her sexuality, etc. The characters are not racially or financially diverse though, allowing them to focus on mundane ideological rituals like prom.
