1 How Kath & Kim Became Queer Canon Thomas Vowles , 2022 single work essay
— Appears in: Kill Your Darlings [Online] , May 2022;

'I cannot say exactly when I first saw Kath & Kim. I was 11 in 2002 when the first season premiered, and I started watching it around then. I’d queue up the VCR to record the weekly episode on the VHS I’d labelled ‘Kath and Kim DO NOT TOUCH’ so my brothers wouldn’t use it to tape the footy. This was so I could rewatch the show, memorising the dialogue of the dysfunctional mother-daughter duo, which I’d repeat at school, or around the house, or simply to myself, which was the safest option. The sitcom—created, written and performed by the comic geniuses that are Gina Riley and Jane Turner—was my oasis.' (Introduction)
