Who cares about spoilers, it's Idris Elba's character.
I'm Idris Elba, actor, director, producer, dj, lesbian

Hi guys, do you know any shows with relevant lesbian or bisexual characters that are either really good, or just older than 10 years... (The show, not the characters)
Alternately, just some shows which are a little more LGBT focused than the "Standart"?The Forsters season 1 came out 2013...
It's about a Lesbian /bisexual couple taking in forster kids and the problems/traumas they bring with them as well as how they get a long with the kids of one of them from an earlier marriage.
Trigger warning: it's quite dramatic & some heavy topics such as rape are part of the show.

Unfortunately most lesbian/bisexual women in older TV shows weren't about representation, but more geared towards either the male fantasy, or to make jokes off of/out of them.
Well, wasn't old lesbian lady/aunt kind of a thing way back?

Alternately, just some shows which are a little more LGBT focused than the "Standart"?Babylon 5 has two women start a relationship... sort of.
They set up a frienship that was supposed to turn into a romantic relationship, but one of them left the show, cutting that subplot short. They still try to work it in, as the last couple episodes before the character exit heavily imply they are romantically/sexually involved, but nothing is explicitly confirmed until the next season when the remaining character briefly opens up about having loved the now absent character.
It's not much, but it's still pretty big for the early to mid 90s.

Season five had a lesbian romance episode, but the characters involved were then never mentioned again. Season seven did a better job, with the lesbian characters being recurring characters throughout the season

I've watched all except queer as folk... I'll give it a try!

Ive watched the show 3 times already, and I'm planning on watching it a fourth time soon! I'm glad there's other enjoyers out there.
Been rewatching it lately with my trans teen daughter. She's been loving it. Showed it to my wife about 5 years ago as well as she's never seen it.

Yeah, and gym teachers, but it was always just a side character with no depth.

not one I've seen myself yet but Wynonna Earp has been recommended to me. It hasn't quite hit the 10 year mark though it started airing in 2016
It’s a wild and ridiculous show. Lots of fun to watch. It’s one of those rare shows that’s led almost entirely by women, and has incredibly raunchy humor.

If you haven't looking into it there was a surprisingly a lot of good representation in the 70s. This all dropped off in the 80s because of Reagan.

The mcs are all lesbian/bi asf (I don't think it's confirmed, but if u watch it you'll understand..) and they all have a lot of depth to them, especially homura

The Wire. Don't want to spoil it by saying which one, but a key character turns out to be a lesbian.
I hate the notion that The Wire counts as an old show!
Oh God, I can't believe I forgot this one.

Alternately, just some shows which are a little more LGBT focused than the "Standart"?Sailor Moon, but not in the American or German versions. I think in America they were cousins and all the romance cut out and in Germany one was turned into a guy.

I wouldn't call it 'LGBT focused,' but it paved the way for LGBTQ in all of western animation. It's not too anime in spite of its style, and the lead character is bi. And awesome, and hilarious:

Isn't it made clear from nearly the beginning that this certain person is openly lesbian?
Overall, I really like how the show deals with it's LGBT characters. It's just matter of fact. Even the one little reveal of a certain secondary character is just there and gone, just a little detail on them not necessarily a defining part of their persona within the confines of the story.
