Baig is the first queer South Asian Muslim actor to lead a Canadian primetime television series. The series premiered on CBC in 2021. Although Sort Of was the top winner overall in television categories at the 10th Canadian Screen Awards in 2022, Baig notably refused to submit for consideration at all due to the gender division between Best Actor in a Comedy Series and Best Actress in a Comedy Series. The Academy of Canadian Cinema and Television subsequently announced that beginning with the in 2023, gender-neutral awards for Best Performance will be presented instead of separate gendered actor and actress categories.
