THR: Producer Greg Berlanti calls out Don't Say Gay at the PGAs while accepting the Norman Lear Achievement Award: But even with a spin in the spotlight and a new trophy for his mantle, Berlanti said the honor arrives with some sadness “because I know how many trans, nonbinary and queer kids are still having those sleepless nights,” just like the ones he suffered through. “I desperately want the world to change for them just like it did for me,” added Berlanti, who referenced the “Don’t Say Gay” bill and moves by Republican lawmakers to target LGBTQ+ youth. “I believe and hope that it will, in large part because of the kinds of stories that so many of you are going to make sure get told.” Don't Say Gay is a sequel.
