Instead, the show lets them deal with the same messy communication, heartbreak and romantic confusion as everyone else. And that was very much intentional.<\/p>\n<h2>So, is Sterling Point queer?<\/h2>\n<figure id=\"attachment_7852\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-7852\" style=\"width: 640px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-7852\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.filmshrine.com\/uploads\/2026\/08\/Suchis-The-Tab-masterpiece-81-1-1024x538.png\" alt=\"is Sterling Point queer \" width=\"640\" height=\"336\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.filmshrine.com\/uploads\/2026\/08\/Suchis-The-Tab-masterpiece-81-1-1024x538.png 1024w, https:\/\/cdn.filmshrine.com\/uploads\/2026\/08\/Suchis-The-Tab-masterpiece-81-1-768x403.png 768w, https:\/\/cdn.filmshrine.com\/uploads\/2026\/08\/Suchis-The-Tab-masterpiece-81-1.png 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-7852\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Credit: Amazon Prime Video<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/thetab.com\/filmshrine\/tag\/sterling-point\/\">Sterling Point<\/a> has several queer characters and relationships woven into its story, rather than treating LGBTQ+ representation as a separate storyline.<\/p>\n<p>Creator Megan Park has said that making the show queer felt completely natural to her. &#8220;It just feels like queer representation just makes sense,&#8221; Park told <a href=\"https:\/\/www.out.com\/gay-tv-shows\/sterling-point-queer#toggle-gdpr\">Out<\/a>. She added that she was &#8220;always trying to make things feel authentic and character-driven first and foremost.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Park&#8217;s own experience working in teen TV also influenced how she approached Sterling Point. Before becoming a writer and director, she acted in The Secret Life of the American Teenager.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I come from the acting side of the early 2000s TV space, which was incredibly tropey and definitely didn\u2019t feel to me always like the most reflective of what I was actually experiencing or the people around me,&#8221; she said.<\/p>\n<p>So, rather than making queer characters feel like they&#8217;re simply there to tick a box, Park wanted LGBTQ+ characters and relationships to feel like a natural part of the world.<\/p>\n<h2>Ramona and Oona\u2019s romance gets messy<\/h2>\n<figure id=\"attachment_7851\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-7851\" style=\"width: 640px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-7851\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.filmshrine.com\/uploads\/2026\/08\/Suchis-The-Tab-masterpiece-80-1-1024x538.png\" alt=\"is Sterling Point queer \" width=\"640\" height=\"336\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.filmshrine.com\/uploads\/2026\/08\/Suchis-The-Tab-masterpiece-80-1-1024x538.png 1024w, https:\/\/cdn.filmshrine.com\/uploads\/2026\/08\/Suchis-The-Tab-masterpiece-80-1-768x403.png 768w, https:\/\/cdn.filmshrine.com\/uploads\/2026\/08\/Suchis-The-Tab-masterpiece-80-1.png 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-7851\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Credit: Amazon Prime Video<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>The main queer romance is, of course, Ramona and Oona. There&#8217;s clearly a lot of love between them, but things don&#8217;t exactly go smoothly. By the end of season one, their relationship has broken down as Ramona decides to spend time in New York with her newly discovered family.<\/p>\n<p>Bragason, who plays Oona, actually likes that their relationship isn&#8217;t presented as perfect. &#8220;I think it\u2019s so important to have that representation onscreen, and for it to be as real and messy as a straight relationship,&#8221; she told <a href=\"https:\/\/www.teenvogue.com\/story\/bo-bragason-sterling-point-interview\">Teen Vogue<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;With Ramona and Oona, their hardship isn\u2019t solely based on the fact that they are women loving women,&#8221; Bragason said. &#8220;They love each other. They love loving women, and it\u2019s not a massive talking point. It is what it is.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>She also said, &#8220;The actual hardship that comes with the attraction is just normal communication styles between people and figuring out what works best; the best way to navigate through really difficult situations and stuff.&#8221;<\/p>\n<h2>Why did Megan Park make Sterling Point so queer?<\/h2>\n<p>Basically, Park wanted LGBTQ+ characters to exist in the story without their sexuality becoming their entire storyline. She described her approach as adding &#8220;a layer of nuance with what is hopefully just the reality of the world today.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>That&#8217;s particularly clear with Ramona and Oona. Their relationship can be romantic, funny, awkward and painful without the show constantly stopping to explain why they&#8217;re together.<\/p>\n<p>Bragason said that&#8217;s one of the things she loves most about the storyline. &#8220;I just love the fact that it\u2019s not awful coming-out stories, and you get to see some light and some love, and that it can be good,&#8221; she said. &#8220;I think that\u2019s just important to see.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Ramona and Oona aren&#8217;t the only LGBTQ+ characters in Sterling Point, either. There&#8217;s more queer representation in Sterling Point, too. The series includes Sully, played by Nikko Angelo Hinayo, as part of the wider friendship group. Annie also starts the series with a gay boyfriend, although their relationship is actually more of a friendship.<\/p>\n<p>Park explained, &#8220;We wanted Annie to feel like a character who was a little afraid to explore her sexuality and wasn\u2019t quite ready. They do have a real, genuine love and respect for each other. It\u2019s just obviously a friend situation, but there\u2019s a safety there for her, at least, in not having to actually take the leap and actually date somebody for real.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><i>For all
