Alan Cumming slams Trump, says it's important to show same-sex couples on network TV

PASADENA, Calif. –  Alan Cumming thinks his new show, which portrays the first gay leading character on a network drama, could not be coming at a better time.

His crime procedural, "Instinct," arrives at a time when Cumming said "the president is actively condoning, by his silence, violence and persecution against the LBGT community."

Cumming told reporters at the Television Critics Association’s Winter Press Tour it's a perfect time for his gay character to lead a network show.

“I really do applaud everyone at CBS for having the courage to put [this] on right now in the kind of climate where you might not think to do that.

“The Good Wife” star said he plays a “dandy” professor who is lured back into his old job as a CIA agent.

“He’s a former spy; he drives a motorbike; [he’s] gay… He’s kind of a little bit on the spectrum. He’s a child musical prodigy. There’s a lot going on,” Cumming said of his character Dr. Dylan Reinhart.
