What does representation in television mean to you? Do you find representation important? When did you feel represented in a TV show?

Oh, that's such an interesting set of questions. I usually think of representation in terms of race, disability, and queerness. And those are all super-important!

But what actually makes me feel represented is positive portrayals of transformative-fandom fans, especially older fans. I don't think this kind of representation is anywhere near as important, but it was fun to realise this; I hadn't thought about it before.
