These streaming picks include compelling characters who come out in wildly different ways, times, and ages. Check out these coming out series and movies to stream this weekend.Creator Josh Thomas stars in this Australian dramedy series about “Josh,” a nerdy, sardonic, seemingly straight guy who is told he’s gay by his girlfriend (Caitlin Stasey) over a very expensive ice cream sundae.
When Josh unexpectedly meets a cute guy, Geoffrey (Wade Briggs), he starts to realize he actually is gay. Over the course of four seasons, Josh finds and loses love multiple times, deals with his mentally ill mother (Debra Lawrance) and chaotic father (David Roberts), problematic best friend (Thomas Ward) and a host of other quirky characters.
