When the animated series The Legend of Korra ended its three-season run with the two heroines holding hands and dissolving into a mist – thus making explicit a lesbian love interest that hitherto had only been hinted at – children’s TV may have been changed forever. So claimed Vanity Fair arts writer Joanna Robinson, who enthusiastically lauded the finale of the show as the ‘most subversive television event of the year.’ But for Christian media watchers that lesbian fairytale ending was just the inevitable next step in a clearly discernible trend in America where there are more gay and transgender characters and stories in children’s television. Other examples include the Australian ‘gender-bending’ cartoon series SheZow featuring a 12-year-old boy who finds a ‘power ring’ that turns him into a girl, and an episode in Good Luck Charlie in which a lesbian couple bring their child over for a play date. Christian media watchers predict it will get worse because children’s TV is a reflection of what’s already in our culture.
