Doctor Who's always been for pretty much everyone...
And speaking of the Sarah-Jane Adventures, there were plans to have Luke (on of the main characters) revealed to be gay in it. Add that to a whole episode talking about Gay couples (and whether or not they can adopt) in an episode of The Dumping Ground, another kid's show on CBBC, it definitely can happen

Aha! I knew there was something worth bringing up about the Sarah Jane Adventures, I just couldn't remember what it was. Shame that never came to light really, but understandable given the circumstances.
Didn't know about the Dumping Ground thing though. Obviously the BBC is really trying to push things in the direction, which is good.

I can't speak on the behalf of Doctor Who, but Star Trek was never a "kid's show".

Except it was. It was a 60's episodic sci-fi adventure series, with the goal of aiming to be like the cowboy/western shows with a broader sense of adventure. It was very much a kid's show, but it attracted a larger audience due to it's more 'high tech' setting and 'smarter' characters.

Yes, I know this is a controversial topic, however, I wonder if Power Rangers could have a gay Ranger in the future.
I have no issue with a gay ranger, however, if Power Rangers also has a male Pink Ranger in the future, I would prefer the male Pink Ranger not to be a gay character since it promotes the stereotype that any man who wears pink is gay, which is false (gay men are actually less likely to wear pink than straight men except in adult TV shows and movies). Yes, everyone should know I am obsessed with having a male Pink Ranger, however, I definitely would prefer for him not to be gay. I personally think a gay Ranger would work better as a Green or Black Ranger, since it would give more focus and emphasis to those Ranger colors who normally don't get much focus. What does anyone here think?

To be honest, i think we could have already have had a gay ranger, but since when has someone's sexuality been someone's defining characteristic? I know this is power rangers where the main ingredient for acting is ham, but if they were to do it, they shouldn't draw attention to it and just include it and treat him/her as any other character.

The TOS animated series was designed to draw kids in. |

Except it wasn't not. See, I can do that bullshit, too.
It doesn't really feel that way, but whatever. I really don't give a shit about garbage from the 60's. If believing it wasn't for kids helps you sleep at night, then go for it.

like, I feel Star Trek is less of a kid's show and more of a show for all audiences. the target audience was anyone who wanted to watch science-fiction, not just kids. this isn't the same case as other television shows such as Friendship is Magic or the anime Polar Bear Cafe.
