I greatly enjoy a show having jokes fly over my head because I'm not educated enough. That's not some kind of arrogant "I'm so smart I get everything" bit, I'm completely and totally lost by any math more advanced than trigonometry. You don't need to make a very intelligent joke at all to leave me behind.

But the typical show treats the audience like they are goddamn morons, and the only time they are willing to get "dense" is in references to themselves or pop culture.

The nice things about these type of jokes are they aren't obvious at all, so if you don't get them and think they are funny, you probably don't realize they're even there so you don't even realize you missed something
