"Bridgerton," the latest hit from Netflix, is being accused of "queerbaiting," The Independent reports. Trailers for the series have included allusions to LGBTQ main characters and storylines, even a teaser for a gay sex scene, and yet there appear be none beyond a few minor characters and subplots. This is particularly odd, given that "Bridgerton" is produced by Shonda Rhimes, the mastermind behind "How to Get Away With Murder" and that show's unabashedly gay content. Fans on Twitter have praised the show while critiquing the lack of LGBTQ content. One fan said, "if your trailer is 30 seconds long and you devote several of those precious seconds to guys fucking you can be damn sure I expect a plotline or heck at least a substantial amount of peripheral homo-ballyhoo."
