Legacies: Fans applaud CW for the diversity on display but hope to see a trans character soon

A spin-off of another CW show 'The Originals', the show is being lauded by fans for not only reperesenting a wide variety of races and ethnicities but for also doing an excellent job of portraying various sexual orientations on the screen. 



 

"We have a wonderful variety of races, ethnic groups and sexual orientation portrayed with the level of normality that I hope to see in the world someday," said a fan on Reddit.
