For decades, amidst the bright lights, studio-audience laughs, and absurdly large apartment sets, the real-life story of American LGBTQ+ liberation unfolded in plain sight in front of millions of viewers, most of whom were laughing too hard to mind. From flamboyant relatives on Bewitched to closely-guarded secrets on All in the Family, from network-censor fights over Soap to behind-the-scenes activism on the set of The Golden Girls, from Ellen's culture clash to Modern Family's primetime power-couple, Hi Honey, I'm Homo! is the story not only of how subversive queer comedy transformed the American sitcom, from its inception through today, but how our favorite sitcoms transformed, and continue to transform, America. Accessible, entertaining, and informative, Hi Honey, I'm Homo! is filled with exclusive commentary and interviews from celebrities, behind-the-scenes creators, and more.… (mehr)
An engaging look at LGBTQ+ representation on American sitcoms from the 1960s to the 2010s. It made for a good road trip audiobook since I have seen almost all the shows (sorry Golden Girls and Will & Grace), the oldest ones on original broadcast or in syndication and the newest on streaming.
It's sad to see how slow the progress was and how much effort had to go into each little bit of it, battling controversy and network censors every step of the way, but it's great to follow the upward trend and realize how far it has come.
I'd love to see a follow-up survey of television dramas.

Martha Posner was working late one night when the phone rang. She picked it up, and a man's voice bellowed, "I want to address of where I can write a letter about this show." -Introduction
ENDORA: What is normal to you, young man, is to us... asinine.
Something strange was afoot with the young husband and wife who had just moved into the home at 1164 Morning Glory Circle. A neighbor, peering through her curtains across the street, gasped at the sight of the wife's colorful, campy mother - to say nothing of the flamboyant visiting uncle. Then there was the British gentleman with a penchant for vibrant male companions, and a supposedly strait-laced husband with a two-faced secret.
Yes, this much was certain: there was something very queer about Darrin and Samantha Stephens.
