Gay TV Gets Renewed Early for Once

In what critics say is a show of confidence, NBC has renewed three series for the full seasonthat are popular among LGBT viewers: Go On, The New Normal, and Revolution. According to The Wrap,Revolution (a post-apocalyptic series centered around a Hunger Games-style female teen protagonist) and the super queer-friendly The Voice helped NBC emerge as the top-rated network during premiere week.

Go On, the Matthew Perry vehicle centered around a therapy group, features Julie White as a lesbian who lost her wife, while The New Normal has Andrew Ranells from The Book of Mormon playing the flightier half a gay couple having a child with a surrogate,

"Were also very proud of our new comedy block of Go On and The New Normal," NBC entertainment president Jennifer Salke told Tim Molloy. "In partnering with Matthew Perry for Go On, creator Scott Silveri has created a comedy with a highly original voice that deftly combines humor and emotion. And Ryan Murphy and Ali Adler have created a truly unique family in The New Normal that is reflective of the changing dynamics of the world we live in. These shows are both welcome additions to our new lineup! (It helps that Ali Adler (ex-wife of The Talk's Sara Gilbert) is a mom herself, and Ryan Murphy is the king of all things gay. And Ellen Barkin is a costar.)

Says White of Go On's success: "Ive done quite a few pilots, and they just dont get picked up. So this is the first one that Ive done in a while that really has a shot. Ive so got my fingers crossed. I would just so love to get to do it for a few years. This group is amazing.Theyre so darling and funny."
