About this listen

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.

a brilliant deep dive into queer tv

I loved this book, it was an excellent exploration of gay representation in sit coms, and Matts narration is very relaxing. it's a great accompaniment to his YouTube channel, and just all round interesting

Fabulous romp through Queer US Sitcoms

I've watched his youTube channel for a while and this pulls the whole thing together into a clear sequence. Obviously a lot of work and has the same lightness of touch as his video work and just as funny. Delightful

Informative and Important

I've learnt so much about lgbtq+ pop culture thanks to Matt's YouTube channel and this book just added to that knowledge. I'll absolutely be recommending this book to my friends.
