* The Peacock comedy series ''Rutherford Falls'' (2021) features a nonbinary character named Bobbie, played by nonbinary actor [[Jesse Leigh]]. The character was originally written as a gay man, but after Leigh auditioned in "glam-core" 1970s fashion, the show staff decided to make Bobbie nonbinary.<ref name="RutherfordFalls">{{Cite web |title=Jesse Leigh Is the Witchy, Nonbinary Bestie We All Need in Our Lives |last=Rudolph |first=Christopher |work=NewNowNext |date=22 April 2021 |access-date=25 April 2021 |url= http://www.newnownext.com/jesse-leigh-nonbinary-rutherford-falls/04/2021/ |quote=Bobbie was originally, I think, gay and male-presenting. So I went to the audition and I thought, I’m going to just make the character my own. And I did — I remember I wore bellbottoms, really cute, all ’70s. I did a really cute winged liner and I was just myself; that’s what I just wear on an everyday basis. So I show up in a little bit of glam-core, and they loved the character so much that they eventually ended up making Bobbie nonbinary. }}</ref> | |||
