Slown-burn is literally my favourite trope and it's a tragedy there aren't more sapphic ones on tv. Arguably Xena was a slowburn of epic proportions but alas it's was all subtext (or whatever it was the 90s understood of that term - wild times lol). And any other I can think of where either animated shows for kids or ended as queerbait (*cough* Rizzles and Supercorp *cough*).
Since you were saying that, at least until now, most of the lesbian slow burns could be found in animated series, I have a question for you.
Do you include Harley Quinn and Poison Ivy's relationship in "Harley Quinn: The Animated Series" in those examples? Are they include in what a "typical" slow burn is or should be?
Even though it only took two seasons before they got together, I still think they get to have a pretty good "will-they-or-won’t-they" dynamic (for an animated series which is - of course - not quite the same as a "real" show like "Big Sky").
I mean, it's still not perfect but, in that case, the series is actually aimed at adults. So, there is some sexual tension (especially in comparison to the other animated shows mentioned).
