Pride Month Calendar 2022: TV and Streaming Shows and Movies Celebrating LGBTQ+ Voices
New premieres, returning series, Pride parades, and fresh voices in the LGBTQ+ film and TV community are available in June.
June is Pride Month and that means networks and streaming services are presenting some brand new LGBTQ+ content. Whether exclusively LGBTQ+ stories or simply shows and movies from LGBTQ+ creators and stars, there’s plenty to celebrate. These include returning series and new series launches, specials and broadcasts of real world events.
Be sure to check streaming service LGBTQ+ hubs for access to Pride worthy content previously released. And not just the likes of Netflix, Prime, Hulu, HBO Max, or Paramount+, but Shudder has LGBTQ+ horror content like Boulet Brothers Present Dragula, the documentary Scream, Queen! My Nightmare on Elm Street, and everybody’s favorite scream queen in Elvira, Mistress of the Dark.
Showtime is offering first seasons of The L Word, The L Word: Generation Q, Work In Progress and more for free in June. Also free, Freevee has movies like But I’m a Cheerleader and series like Project Runway.
Read on to find out what else is showing during Pride Month.
