The Book of Queer

This was super informative, hilarious and touching. Actors were funny, I learned a ton. Sad to think about the reality of queer people in history and how many of their lives were cut short. Shout out to whoever does all those awesome leg kicks in the intro!

I jumped into this show by chance on dicovery plus and I didn't expect it to be So funny, well executed, intresting and most of all queer AF. Loved it so far, can't wait to see more. Host's and interviewed's explanations between the scenes make the show even more catchy. Scientific datas report and real quotes really bring it to the next level. It's not so common to see this kind of show. The queer history is the other face of the history we are used to be told in school, it's the one we deserve and most of all is the one that we need. We can expect great episodes from this show for sure.

Looking at history through the lens of a queer historian and told with campy fun. What's not to love? We've seen the dry, boring history, it's time we had some fun with it! Great job!

That combo is bound to ruffle a few feathers (as evidenced by the only other posted review as of this moment), but as the intro to the show says "it's comedy" and all the facts are documented. Only the first episode is available as of this writing, and it's campy craziness (based in forgotten truths) is addicting. This is a show to watch at drag brunch. With your nieces and nephews. Bayard Rustin (a mostly neglected figure in the civil rights movement and who is about to get his due in an upcoming bio pic) has back up singers for gods sake. It's adorable and important information. This isn't your History Channel history.

Awesome, enjoyable, funny, humorous, lovvvvvvved it! Definitely a keeper for a person whose seen about everything presented in very way. I know from other sources the story lines that have shown and can't wait to see the rest to be shown are hitting the nail on the head. Keep up the great work. Its nice to be educated and entertained in this crampy world full of hate mongers.
