Which Queer TV Show You Should Watch Next, Based on Your Zodiac Sign

With a wide variety of LGBTQ+ television shows available across a seemingly never-ending list of streaming services, narrowing down your next watch can be tricky. If you’re stumped, allow me to use my astrology expertise to help.

Below, you’ll find a list of queer TV shows each zodiac sign will love. You can stop at your Sun sign — but if you’re one of those gays who knows your full astrological birth chart? I’d also recommend reading the suggestion for your Moon sign (for your new comfort show) and your Venus sign (for a show with an aesthetic and/or crop of characters you’ll really connect with).

Read on to find out what you should add to the top of your watchlist.

Aries: Heated Rivalry

Sexy, fast-paced, and surprisingly tender, the internet’s favorite gay sports romance is an obvious pick for fire sign Aries. In case you live under a rock and somehow missed it: Heated Rivalry follows Shane Hollander and Ilya Rozanov (played by breakout stars Hudson Williams and Connor Storrie, aka #HudCon), two rival hockey stars who are hooking up in secret. Over the course of years, their situationship evolves into a real romance — one with very high stakes for two closeted elite athletes at the top of their game. Canadian showrunner Jacob Tierney adapted it for Crave from author Rachel Reid’s popular novel of the same name. Ready to come to the cottage yet?

Taurus: The Hunting Wives

Is The Hunting Wives the best sapphic show on TV? No, not by a long shot. But it’s satisfyingly steamy, and that’s sure to appeal to your hedonistic side, Taurus. The soapy Netflix drama stars Brittany Snow as Sophie O’Neil, a housewife and reluctant Texas transplant who befriends the charming Margo Banks (Malin Åkerman) and her clique of wealthy besties. Shortly after arriving in town, Sophie finds herself implicated in the murder of a teen girl. She promptly gets tangled up in Margo’s web of dark secrets, messy small-town politics, and, what else, lesbian love affairs.

Gemini: Adults

No sign cherishes good banter between friends like Gemini, and no show delivers on that quite like Adults. Set in New York, the hit FX comedy follows a ragtag group of twenty-something friends-slash-roommates fumbling their way into adulthood. Queer actor-comedian Owen Thiele routinely steals scenes as the gregarious Anton, but the whole ensemble has great chemistry and even better comedic timing.

Cancer: Heartstopper

Sentimentality is Cancer’s forte, and that’s exactly why you’ll love Heartstopper. Based on the eponymous graphic novels series from Alice Oseman, this heartwarming show follows Charlie Spring (Joe Locke) and Nick Nelson (Kit Connor), two queer teens whose unlikely friendship — Charlie is a quiet nerd contending with a relentless bully; Nick is a total jock who’s only just begun questioning his sexuality — leads to romance. Come for the tender depictions of queer self-discovery and first love, stay for the nuanced portrayals of mental health struggles (and the final chapter that’s coming to the big screen this summer).

Leo: Hacks

Don’t let the name deceive you: Hacks boasts some of the sharpest writing and acting on TV right now. Tackling themes like ego clashes, creative rebirths, and the pitfalls of life in the limelight, it’ll be right up Leo’s alley. The Emmy-winning HBO Max comedy stars Jean Smart as Deborah Vance, an aging but iconic standup comedian who begrudgingly collaborates with a younger queer comedy writer, Ava Daniels (Hannah Einbinder), to refresh her material. Cue the codependent age-gap friendship we didn’t know we needed, complete with a brilliant ensemble cast.

Virgo: Boots

Netflix comedy-drama Boots takes the military to task, unfolding the based-on-real-life tale of a closeted gay teen (Miles Heizer) who enlists in the U.S. Marines at the height of the “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” era. Eagle-eyed Virgos will appreciate the show’s tension between rule-following versus nonconformity and balance of heavy themes with moments of levity. (Yes, Boots was canceled after just one season, but not because it wasn’t good or highly viewed; some speculated that the Pentagon blasting the show made it radioactive for Netflix, but CEO Ted Sarandos maintained that was “absolutely not” the case.)

Libra: I Love LA

Bottoms star Rachel Sennott tackles love, friendship, and ambition in her buzzy HBO Max comedy. It’s jam-packed with chic looks and zingy hyper-local humor, but what really makes I Love LA a no-brainer for Libra is its exploration of shifting relationship dynamics and blurry boundaries. Sennott’s character, ambitious talent manager Maia Simsbury, reconnects with Tallulah Stiel (Odessa A’zion), her queer influencer ex-BFF, and promptly parlays their fraught friendship into a professional collaboration. Chaos and hilarity ensue — for Maia, Tallulah, and everybody else in their codependent friend circle.

Scorpio: Yellowjackets

Between its dark premise, supernatural elements, and simmering emotional intensity, Yellowjackets will check every box for you, Scorpio. Told in dual timelines, the hit Showtime drama follows a high school girls’ soccer team that gets stranded in the wilderness in the ’90s after a plane crash on the way to a championship game. As time stretches on, they spiral out and resort to cannibalism to survive (not a spoiler, I promise). Its stacked cast includes Melanie Lynskey, Christina Ricci, and Juliette Lewis, who play older versions of the surviving teen girls in the present day — and more importantly, each season is gayer than the last.

Sagittarius: Overcompensating

You might be thinking, “Sam, why would you choose a show about a closeted gay guy overcompensating to mask his queerness for Sagittarius, a fire sign known to be blunt?” Because your sign is also ruled by gas-giant Jupiter, and Jupiter exaggerates everything — even elaborate façades — to a comical extent. Loosely drawing on his own experience, creator Benito Skinner (a.k.a. BennyDrama) aces this hilarious and earnest portrayal of a college freshman navigating friendship, family, and queer identity.

Capricorn: The Last of Us

The Last of Us sets a high bar for post-apocalyptic media, a genre that’s inarguably Capricorn-coded (the physical struggle! The emotional endurance! The cold, hard, Saturnian terrain!) Led by talent like noted doll ally Pedro Pascal and rising nonbinary star Bella Ramsey, the HBO drama about a group of survivors in the aftermath of a catastrophic global pandemic delivers the perfect mix of suspenseful storylines and poignant moments.

Aquarius: Wayward

You might know Mae Martin as a comedian, but allow me to sing their practices as a dramatic actor. Case in point: Wayward, the Netflix thriller they created, wrote, and starred in that, in my humble opinion, didn’t get nearly enough love when it premiered in 2025. Tackling thorny topics like grief, guilt, intergenerational trauma, and utopian visions gone horribly, cultish-ly wrong, there’s a lot here for cerebral Aquarians to chew on.

Pisces: Euphoria

Alienation, escapism, the all-consuming nature of intense emotions like grief — the recurring themes in HBO’s Euphoria are parts of life that water sign Pisces knows well. Finally back for its third (and likely last) season, the high-intensity drama stars Zendaya as Rue, a troubled teen who struggles with substance abuse in the wake of her father’s death. It also catapulted Hunter Schafer, who plays Rue’s best friend, a transgender girl named Jules, to fame. I can’t necessarily vouch for Euphoria’s latest season, which appears to be straying far from the show’s roots, but the first two are definitely worth watching.
