Queer Planet is a 2024 nature documentary series about homosexuality and bisexuality in animals, directed and produced by Ed Watkins. The series is narrated by Andrew Rannells.
Content[edit]
The documentary is split into several parts. It talks about some of the animal species which exhibit LGBT behavior, including lions, giraffes, and clownfish.
Reception[edit]
The film was generally received well by critics, with a particular emphasis on the series' wit and use of humor.[1][2] Matthew Rozsa of Salon.com wrote, "Queerness is everywhere in nature, despite claims to the contrary, and 'Queer Planet' underlines that sexual diversity isn't an anomaly. It's worth celebrating."[3]
However, the series elicited backlash from some for its alleged political agenda. Several conservative political commentators criticized it, including Tomi Lahren.[4]
