Okay,

TV shows:
Life Goes On - Corky, main character who has Down Syndrome - lasted several seasons.

Picket Fences - had Marlee Matlin for multiple seasons who is deaf. Also any other work she has done.

Blind Justice - main character is a blind police detective - lasted 13 eps


TV movies:
House of Cards (1993)- with Kathleen Turner and Tommy Lee Jones. KT's daughter experiences a traumatic event and begins exhibiting severe autistic. There's a lot of excellent footage of other actually autistic people in the movie aside from main chars.

Miracle Run (2004)- with Mary Louise Parker and Aidan Quinn. Her twin boys are born autistic and it's a semi biographic dramatization of their lives up through high school.


Movies:
Daredevil with Ben Affleck who is a blind superhero.


This is all I can think of at the moment, but there's a lot of them out there...
