Lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) representation in American adult animation has been ongoing for years. In the 1990s and 2000s, gay and transgender characters appeared in The Simpsons, South Park, Family Guy, and The Nutshack, while in the 2010s and 2020s lesbian characters appeared in series such as Brickleberry and Final Space. In later years, bisexual characters appeared in Bob's Burgers. At the same time, American Dad! and Drawn Together had pansexual characters, while The Cleveland Show and Rick and Morty had characters which were implied to be pansexual. Other prominent adult animations with LGBTQ characters included Queer Duck, The Venture Bros., The Awesomes, Archer, Harley Quinn, Invincible, Tuca & Bertie, Magical Girl Friendship Squad, and Star Trek: Lower Decks.
