When was the last time you saw a sitcom where the wife was portrayed as a loving, caring type?

Likewise every husband is some bumbling, dullard who's constantly goofing around/messing up.

This was tough, and I had to go back to Dan Conner in Roseanne for an answer.

Simpsons and Family Guy are not sitcoms, they are cartoons.

I knew someone would mention them and almost specifically excluded them.

people like shows like raymond because it reminds them of their own lives. shmuck husband, controlling wive, idiot brother-in-law, senile in-laws, bratty kids, etc. you get to laugh at how miserable your life is, except it's happening to other people.

Wow, I had a scathing reply all ready to go. Then I saw it was you, diebitter, who made the post. Now I'm confused and a little sad.

Marge is the most understanding, accepting wife that has ever existed in the history of humanity, but I was refering specifically to live person sitcoms, rather than adult themed cartoons.

Yeah, fair enough to that. It's your thread, if they're excluded, I'm cool with that.

Because white males and Nazis are the only groups you're allowed to portray as stupid/evil in PC Hollywood. Al Qaida gets better treatment.

diebitter,

In no way should those be considered sitcoms, both in a general sense and from the context of the OP.
