I am impressed that the print edition of a magazine with millions of circulation had a good article describing recent TV shows with transgender people and it mentioned two recent shows:
(Also see another article by Matt Roush, "What's Worth Watching: Young and Transgender," tvinsider.com posted Jun. 30, 3015 featured the June 30 PBS Frontline, "Growing Up Trans.")"The new E! reality series I Am Cait, which documents Jenner's new life, premieres July 26. TLC debuts I Am Jazz, about trans activist/YouTube star Jazz Jennings, 14, on July 15. Those shows join two current ABC Family series: The Fosters, which features a trans actor playing a trans character; and Becoming Us, a reality series about teenager Ben Lehwald, whose father is transitioning. The Bold and the Beautiful is also currently unfolding the sudsy romance between a trans woman and a heterosexual man." (Quoted from Gregory E. Miller and Damian Holbrook, "A Transformative Year: Inside the rise of transgender voices on television," TV Guide Jul. 13-26, 2015, p. 8-9 tvinsider.com posted Jul. 9, 2015)
