Disney: we vaguely implied that the villain’s toady was into him! :D canon representation!!! :D :D :D

Marvel Studios (also Disney): we had a nameless extra ask about his husband :) you’re welcome :)

PBS: The title character’s elementary school teacher will get married to a man on-screen and all of his students will be there to support him, nbd.

Okay I know this is a jokey post but it IS a big deal for PBS! Back in 2005, the Arthur spin-off, Postcards from Buster, had an episode where Buster visited a (real life!) family that had two lesbian moms. The episode never used the words ‘lesbian’, ‘gay’, or ‘homosexual’, just had Buster hanging out with this family for a little bit.

The US Secretary of Education at the time was SUCH a fucking homophobe that when she found out about the episode, she demanded that PBS return all federal funding used to make the episode. PBS only aired it on a few channels.

Marc Brown, the original creator of the Arthur books, recorded a video about how important it was to him that all types of families be represented in the show. PBS has been trying for 14 years to get gay rep and it’s important that we support the show since - as they say in the credits of each episode - it’s funded by viewers, not by corporations!
