Biphobia – How prevalent is it in TV?

Big Bi+ Questions

Show Notes

Biphobia can show up in the loudest places… and sometimes in the shows we love most.

This week on Big Bi+ Questions, Raena and Little Jase unpack how biphobia continues to appear across TV, film, and pop culture. From harmful stereotypes and “pick a side” narratives to the lack of long-term bi+ representation on screen, the conversation explores why visibility still matters and how media shapes the way people understand bi+ identities.

Along the way, they dive into favourite characters, frustrating tropes, audience reactions, and the moments where television has actually started getting it right.

• Why bi+ characters are still misunderstood on screen

• The difference between representation and tokenism

• TV tropes that continue to fuel biphobia

• Shows and characters that helped people feel seen

• How media impacts real-world identity and acceptance

Because sometimes the biggest questions start with what we’re watching.
