The Top 10 Gay Web Series On YouTube
rukkle knows you’re bored of watching your regular mainstream television programming.
We’ve created a list of gay web series featuring gay, lesbians, bears, queers, and more.
rukkle can relate to the frustration with the lack of gay representation seen on tv today. Thankfully, there’s a number of gay web series to help fill the void. Here’s our list of 10 gay web series for you to check out. Some have recently been released and others are already on their 2nd and 3rd seasons.
Whoa, Dude
Jonny McGovern has created a show in the vein of Tosh.0. Each episode features homoerotic viral vids that will cause viewers to stop and say, “Whoa, Dude!” Beware though, the show can be NSFW at times.
McGovern announced the show’s premiere on Twitter,
Check out out new series! Whoa. Dude! http://t.co/zRP9bm8wwC featuring @TheBrandyHoward @TheLindaJames @GregMcKeon & alot of sexy dudes!!!

Whatever This Is
Speaking of Adam Goldman, Whatever This Is, is his latest gay web series that he’s created.

The 3 Bits
The 3 Bits is a gay web series that is written and directed by Max Freeman and Margaret Singer. The episodes are divided up by the three main characters — which are three siblings — so you can see the story unfold from their unique points of view. Two of the sibs are gay, while one is straight.
They’re already facing controversy with one scene featuring someone snorting cocaine off a baby resulted in a call from the actual police.
Freeman explains,
“They were worried that we were endangering a child. [An officer] called and said that he wanted to clarify that it was not a criminal investigation, it was a inquiry. But he repeated this five times and the more he said it, the more I felt like I needed to call a lawyer.”
Watch Roman’s first episode of The 3 Bits on YouTube.
Spin The Bottle
Spin The Bottle is a gay web series about six friends who talk about love and give dating advice to one another while drinking it up.
The series was created by Matthew Barnard, who describes Spin The Bottle as being…
“about six friends who give each other tips on love, relationships and sex, all while tipsy.”
The show is already in its 3rd season and you can watch the trailer for the trailer for Season 1 on YouTube.
We’ve shared ours, now we’d love to know your favourite gay web series.
So, no urban/ethnic gay web series were found? There are some amazing and talented diverse lgbt content creators, but it is what it is, I suppose.
Hi Liki, Thanks for your comment, as we asked in the final sentence “We’ve shared ours, now we’d love to know your favourite gay web series.”
Please be sure to add your suggested content creators!
As most oblivious fake liberal white people do you missed the point. Diversity should have been in your mind when you made this lily white list not a reader after thought. If you’re leading the discussion I find it tasteless that you failed to make an inclusive effort. But it’s normal for Black gays to be left out of everything is this post racial society.

I think they went more for budget and mainstream exposure than audience size and demographic..just so happens the color-less still get more exposure in these days and times…no shade. just truth.
There is a series called Freefall on YouTube. Lamont Pierre, Geno Brooks and the rest of the BOA collective have put together an entertaining urban series.
Production quality is great for most episodes. The situations make the episodes interesting, but I have to admit, there is a slight disconnect in the delivery of some lines.
Overall though, it’s a great series. It ventures outside of the gay comedy and gay-queen-centered shows often found on TV and on web.

G & T is a fantastic Italian Web series. The first and most of the second season are on youtube. Italian with subtitles.
I totaly agree. Love G&T. Amazing. My nr.1.
G&T is amazing!!
Love that show. Can’t wait for season 3
Gay is only, and only about sex. Prove me wrong. Also, all the finger pointing from those damn Christians, Muslims, Hindus and all that bullshit is really all about thier faillures……..All the religions in the world condone LOVE, not same sex………..Stay safe
Four things to remember:
1.Hold on to self, while others try to conform you to thier liking, at your expense.
2. Learn how to self soothe constructivlely – shopping, sports etc
3. Don’t react.
4. Tolerate PAIN for growth.
Only the Dark One Prevents Truth……..
Gtfo
Yeah, because ‘Straight’ people only get married or have relationships JUST FOR SEX… makes perfect sense
G & T an Italian web series is at the top of my list. Matteo Rocchi is so DAYUM HAWT in it. The story is great. Please go check it out guys. You’ll surely love it like I did.

I would recommend a spanish webseries called ‘HOW I MET THE LUDISOFT GIRL’. Very funny and with english subtitles. Here is the first episode, and it becomes better: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CO5otBhJuvQ
Does anyone realize that this is all white people? Like people of color can’t be gay. Next time try to add various forms of diversity to this list.
First Person on YouTube is awesome.
I would like to recommend thai series Love Sick the series. There are two seasons and it’s so adorably cute but innocent.
There is also another series, Make It Right currently airing.
I’m a sucker for teenage dramas and they made awesome ones. Noth series cam be found on YouTube or KissAsian.
The Horizon is the best! Check it out on Youtube
Hi There!
My Sister Is So Gay is a new LGBT web series about Seth, a proud gay man, is invaded by his uptight, homophobic sister, Amanda.

But it seems to Seth that Amanda is way more upset about Katherine cheating on her than her husband.
Plus there’s Seth and Amanda’s boozy, inappropriately sexy mother, Frances played by the iconic Loni Anderson (WKRP) Will she drive them both crazy now that she has her chicks back in the same nest?
Here’s our trailer:
