    Matt Baume's Culture Cruise is an excellent youtube series that analyses the representation of GSRM characters in popular media from the past, what makes this series stand from others is that he doesn't reviews how each piece of media stands on today's cultural climate, but instead provides the historical and cultural background in which each pieces was developed and how it helped to evolve the representation GSRM people.

    If you liked this video I also recommended to check out some of his other videos:

    • Fraiser & Sitcoms of the Gay '90s - In it Matt explains the evolution of GSRM characters on the 90's and how this helped the writers of this show to have more liberty while writing them. It also works as a summary of all his previous videos until this point.

    • How Australia Fell In love with Priscilla, Queen of the Desert - After watching the series for a while you will get the impression that Matt repeats himself a lot, reusing the same clips from the same series over and over again, this is probably because he mostly talks about American sitcoms. However in this video he goes to the other side of the world and explains how the movie Priscilla, Queen of the Desert and how it transformed Australia's public opinion.
