Superstore (2015)

Superstore features Mateo Liwanag, a prominent gay character whose identity is portrayed with dignity and complexity. His relationships are normalized, and while he faces significant external challenges (immigration), his queer identity is consistently treated with respect and empathy, contributing to a net positive portrayal.

While the show often satirizes the performance of Christian holidays in a corporate setting and the sometimes naive interpretations of faith by characters, it consistently portrays Christian adherents as fundamentally good-hearted. The humor arises from the clash of religious values with secular workplace realities, rather than from a critique of the faith itself.

While not deeply exploring Islamic practices, the show features a Syrian refugee character, Sayid, whose background implies a Muslim identity. The narrative strongly condemns xenophobia and prejudice directed at him by other characters, clearly positioning the audience to sympathize with Sayid and reject bigotry.
