Unconventional Trailer Drops, Giving a First Look at Kit Williamson’s Bold Queer Political Comedy

The highly anticipated trailer for Unconventional has finally arrived, and it’s already sparking conversation. Released ahead of the show’s premiere on Revry, the trailer teases a sharp-witted and deeply personal comedy from creator Kit Williamson (EastSiders), diving into family, politics, and queer identity like never before.

A First Look at Unconventional

The premiere video introduces us to Noah and Margot, two queer siblings played by Williamson and Aubrey Peeples (Nashville), who are navigating their personal and professional ambitions in Los Angeles. Things take a turn when their estranged conservative father, played by Scandal’s Jeff Perry, re-enters their lives—forcing them into an unexpected collision of ideals, activism, and family dysfunction.

The trailer balances quick-witted humor with biting political satire, setting the stage for a series that doesn’t shy away from the complexities of queer existence in today’s America. Williamson’s signature storytelling—hilariously honest, deeply human, and refreshingly messy—is on full display, making it clear that Unconventional is more than just another political comedy.

A Show That Challenges the Status Quo

In his interview with Variety, Williamson spoke about the vision behind the series: “So much of our media focuses on fighting for a seat at the table, but what happens when you actually get one? What do you do with it?”

This question drives the heart of Unconventional, as the trailer hints at a story that doesn’t just aim to represent queer voices—it actively challenges and redefines how they fit into larger social and political landscapes.

A Defining Moment for Queer TV

The premiere of the trailer underscores Revry’s commitment to showcasing fearless LGBTQ+ stories, and Unconventional stands out as one of the most original and necessary comedies of the year. With its razor-sharp writing, complex characters, and an all-star cast, the series is already setting itself up as a must-watch for 2025.

If the trailer is any indication, Unconventional will deliver an unfiltered, laugh-out-loud, and thought-provoking look at modern queer life—without compromising its message.

Watch the trailer now and get ready for Unconventional, premiering February 11 on Revry.
