GALECA vp Gerrick Kennedy, who served as this year’s TV awards chair, said in a statement, “What excites me most about this year’s Dorian winners is the range — the swooning devotion of Heated Rivalry , the tender complexity of The Boyfriend, the bravery that cuts through Half Man , and the community memory being kept alive in Lilith Fair: Building a Mystery . To think, queer stories once needed to squeeze into a narrow lens to get made.”
Kennedy added, “There is always room for progress, but this year’s winners prove our community’s stories are as varied and worth telling as any other.”
The Dorian TV Awards recognize the best in television and streaming from mainstream to queer-themed programming. Additional special career honors were bestowed to Hannah Einbinder, with GALECA’s Wilde Wit Award, and Lisa Kudrow, who was named a GALECA TV Icon for her performance in the final season of The Comeback .
