List of bisexual characters in television

From Wikipedia the free encyclopedia

For animation characters, see List of animated series with LGBT characters.
For bisexual transgender characters, see List of transgender characters in television.

This is a list of live action bisexual characters in television (includes terrestrial, cable, streaming series and TV movies). The orientation can be portrayed on-screen, described in the dialogue or mentioned. Roles include lead, main, recurring, supporting, and guest.

The names are organized in alphabetical order by the surname (i.e. last name), or by a single name if the character does not have a surname. ‍Some naming customs write the family name first followed by the given name; in these cases, the names in the list appear under the family name (e.g. the name Jung Seo-hyun [Korean] is organized alphabetically under "J").

This is a dynamic list and may never be able to satisfy particular standards for completeness. You can help by adding missing items with reliable sources.
