About this item

"This book is a triumph and everyone should read it." - Dan Savage, journalist and author, on the "Savage Lovecast". "Hi Honey, I'm Homo is a heartbreaking historical document, but ultimately one that will leave the reader feeling proud of how something as maligned and disposable as the network sitcom used comedy to bring about such profound and important social progress." - Vulture. "[A] well-curated compendium of prime time broadcasting . . . Baume is a companionable guide." - Shelf Awareness. Behind the scenes of the most popular sitcoms of the 20th century, a revolution was brewing.. 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.
