Peacock TV to air ‘Queer Planet’ documentary on gay, bisexual and trans animals

NBCUniversal’s streaming outlet Peacock TV is set to air a documentary about gay, lesbian and transgender animals titled “Queer Planet” — prompting a wide range of reaction on social media.

Peacock unveiled a promo for the documentary, which will premier next month.

“Queer Planet” delves into “gay penguins, bisexual lions [and] sex-changing clown fish” — with one of the experts interviewed for the documentary saying that “it’s only in humans that we have had such a stigma about it.”

“The idea of having just two fixed sexes is clearly out of style,” the promo’s narrator, actor Andrew Rannells, said in the clip, which went viral on social media.

Another commentator interviewed for the documentary declared: “Mother Nature is pretty open-minded.”

“It’s clear that no matter where you look on our planet, nature is full of queer surprises,” the narrator said in the promo, which is interspersed with footage of animals mating.

On social media, critics mocked the promo, with one X user observing: “No, this is not satire.”

Another X user opined that “this is so f–ked up and evil for our youth” and that the documentary was promoting “science revisionism for a satanic gay agenda.”

Another critic wrote that they were “so sick of this LGBTQ s–t being rammed down our throats.”

But others weren’t as critical.

An X user, Xuan Vu, wrote: “It is true that the animal kingdom, besides our species, has homosexuality. That makes them and LGBTQ people also normal. That still does not mean they are the majority. As long as it is put in that context, the rest of us should not be ‘triggered’ by it.”
