Half of this sentance seems right.

So does half of the word "sentance".

OP, this is correct. Same tired formula, I don't know if the networks are afraid to take risks or if a cautious exec said "whoa, this worked for Everybody Loves Raymond [how is a mystery, that show sucked ass] let's just repeat that indefinitely until our shows don't get renewed".

I have no idea who the target demographic is here. My best bet is that it's meant to make each gender feel better about themselves. Men because they don't suck as bad as Ray Romano et al, women because it shows they can assert control in a relationship.

Sprinkle in worn-out jokes, rinse, repeat, and you have your answer.
