Trivia
This show's premise is very loosely based on the childhood experiences of writer, "It Gets Better" campaign co-creator, and one of "The Real O'Neals"'s executive producers, Dan Savage who, like Kenny, grew up as a gay kid in a devoutly Catholic Irish-American family; his father was a Chicago cop and his parents divorced.

Smart and Funny

Just binged the two seasons on HULU. The writing is very good. I found myself laughing out loud a lot, which is rare for me. The jokes don't pander, and contain many cultural references. Started watching because of Martha Plimpton. Who is always brilliant. The rest of the cast is wonderful, and the plot lines are inventive. As a gay guy, I appreciate all the cameos and references (Gus Kenworthy, Jane Lynch, Cheyenne Jackson.........).
