Not only do they deserve Oscars but they and Ron Jeremy deserve special recognition from Oprah AND Dr. Phil for doing more to boost the self-esteem of middle-aged men than Viagra and Cialis combined.
Been away for a few days and just saw this for the first time. Holly this is funny stuff. And ladies why are you quoting which ones are true arn't they all???
It's funny you say that, but Roseanne was the show that started another sitcom phenomenon, that the wives are always smarter than the husbands.
Are you kidding??? You're forgetting about shows like the flinstones and the honeymooners and other similar shows where the men just fly off the handle of rational thought a little too quickly and the women are the voices of reason. However, Rosanne was one of the first good shows to find and exploit the humor in the dysfunctional yet somehow completely functional family

The first thing I thought of was the Flintstones too. It's pretty prevalent that the husband is the dumb one on sitcoms. Although when both parties are out to lunch, you just may have a classic, ala Married With Children
Damn, I loved that show!

That is a great show too. I shoulda thunk of that one, but I was trying to think of older stuff. I have two favorites from that show... the one where he's trying to get 1,000,000 miles on the dodge and the one where I think it's labor day and he actually wants to have sex with peg multiple times during the day... it's also the one where the kids go exploring for ashes for the barbecue and end up using cremated remains by mistake. Two classic episodes!!! Actually, I can think of more, but I'll shut up for now.
Well, one more. I like the one where Peg wins the contest and the fitness guy comes over to get her in shape and he actually turns into a slob and dies of a heart attack or something. They end up having to eat health food cuz peg is so nervous. they even end up eating wheat germ (with a hard G sound ). The health guy also totally ignores Kelly, even when she's bending over on the stairs.
so make that three classic episodes that I can think of off the top of my head.
