I know Sebastian is doing more with the Winter Soldier, and I saw him recently in something else as well (Don't remember what it was off the top of my head), so Jefferson is probably out for the duration of the series. (which is too bad, I liked him). Graham/Huntsman was an OK char, but I could personally take or leave him. Well, if MulanRouge really is going to be the token gay couple (WHY NOT TWO MEN, ONCE :'( ??? ) then the Huntsman (who is canonically Red's true love) coming back would throw some drama into that mess, which might make them not seem... so haphazardly thrown together. In all honesty, ABC has way more gay male couples and single gay males on their shows than lesbian couples and single lesbians, so in that regard I'm happy Once is doing lesbians, if only to say the network isn't favoring one minority over the other. I watch pretty much every ABC show 'cause I have no other channels. And the gay men I've seen are Connor and Oliver from How To Get Away With Murder and Will from Nashville and Mitch and Cam from Modern Family. Meanwhile, Grey's Anatomy has two lesbians and a bisexual woman while How To Get Away With Murder has a lesbian and a bisexual woman. No one gender has more LGBT representation than the other on the channel as a whole, since there's 5 gay men and 5 lesbians.

And I would rather see two hot guys making out than two hot girls. :P Let me do the LGBT run down of prime time tv on ABC, by day (I'm using gay for gay male btw), so you can see that it is uneven. Also, I'm ignoring characters that were only on for one episode, and I'm going to focus on characters that are currently on the shows, so I will probably skip over older LGBT characters that may have been on the shows in the past:

Sunday:

AFV - N/A

Once - Mulan (lesbian); someone else soon based on LGBT couple announcement (assumed lesbian)

Blood & Oil - None, as far as I know, I'm behind on this show

Quantico - Simon (straight pretending to be gay or bisexual male?); Analyst who liked Simon, forgot his name (gay)

Monday:

DWTS - N/A, but the judge Bruno is gay in real life

Castle - No promenient recurring character is LGBT

Tuesday:

The Muppets - None, or all of them, their puppets XD

Fresh off the Boat - No recurring characters, but gay males and lesbians have shown up

Agents of Shield - Joey (gay)

Wicked City - None, so far, show has only aired for a few weeks

Wednesday:

The Middle - Brad, Sue's friend (gay)

The Goldbergs - None

Modern Family - Mitch (gay); Cam (gay); lots of friends of Mitch and Cam (gay)

Blackish - Andre's sister (lesbian)

Nashville - Will (gay); Kevin (gay)

Thursday:

Grey's Anatomy - Callie (bisexual female); Arizona (lesbian); Penny (lesbian)

Scandal - Cyrus (gay); Cyrus's husband (gay)

HTGAWM - Connor (gay); Oliver (gay); Annalise (bisexual female); Annalise's friend (lesbian)

Friday:

Last Man Standing - None

Dr. Ken - Dr. Ken's nurse (gay)

Shark Tank - N/A

20/20 - N/A

Saturday: No shows

Also of note is two of the upcoming shows/seasons: American Crime's second season is going to focus on a boy being gang-raped by other boys (so gay), and The Real O'Neals main character is a gay teenage boy (so again gay). See my point now?

Also, sorry this this post is off topic.
