Queer as Folk
Peacock¡¯s "Queer as Folk" is a show about a defunct love triangle between irresistibly good-looking people- a high-school student, an eligible bachelor, and the person they are both hung up on. The traumatic event that binds them together is their coming into terms with their sexuality.

Two young teens find themselves in a rather dreadful situation when they meet each other: Juliette, the vampire, who is picking victims for the first time chooses Calliope, who's a member of a vampire slayer family. Regardless of the odds, their family's obvious protests, and an apparently never-ending stream of beasts who want them both dead, the two are determined to keep their vibrant emotion.

Love, Victor
With just three seasons, the popular TV show "Love, Victor" - set in the same world as "Love, Simon" - is coming to an end. Fans of the show are very excited for its third season, as it picks up and tackles topics including coming out, dating apps and STDs.
Following last year's cliffhanger and with Benji or Rahim as a potential love interest, the final chapter of Victor's story begins on a potentially fraught note. However, it also starts with the discovery of self-love and getting to know one's tribe. It's the last season but that doesn't mean there won't be any more sexy romance. The actors have a natural chemistry that will make for at least one more steamy goodbye scene before the journey is over.
