103: The Great North’s Ham Tobin Is a Well-Rounded Gay Teen

“Pride & Prejudance Adventure” (March 14, 2021)

The Great North is not Bob’s Burgers with snow. Okay, it is a little bit, but the show has its own vibe and, more importantly for our purposes, an out gay teen as well. In the show’s sixth episode, Ham not only meets a love interest but actually gets to kiss him full on the lips — and that is neither remotely controversial nor is it the only queer plot thread in this episode. Yeah, we’re fans of this new show and we think you should be too. 

End-of-episode question: If you could pick one one-shot sitcom character and build a show around that character, who would you pick and why?
