Is there a single sitcom where the wife/mom isn't a nagging bitch?
Is there a single sitcom where the wife/mom isn't a nagging bitch?
Thats, basically, their role.
Is there a sitcom without women
If there wasn't one then the show wouldn't be interesting
That's so Raven
i think the mom is dead or something
8 simple rules
you want two dads?
this is funny
No she isn't. She's in most of the episodes.
Two and a half men.
It's a nagging (((brother))) instead.
Full House before season 4?
Mrs. Brady was kind of groovy. Mr. Brady was the hardass who was always giving his dumb lectures.
The mom on Family Ties was kind of a laid back hippie and was never a bitch.
I don't think the mom on Family Matters was really that bad, but I don't really remember her even being around that much.
>I don't think the mom on Family Matters was really that bad, but I don't really remember her even being around that much.
She never really got over the tragic rape and murder of their other daughter.
the war at home
welcome to real life
Wow. The Misogyny in this topic....
Most of the wife/mom characters in classic sitcoms are great, especially Laura Petrie in The Dick Van Dyke Show
The King Of Queens
Not a wife/mom but Elaine is the main woman on Seinfeld and she's cool
Pretty much all sitcoms are built on the precedent set by "The Honeymooners" which is naggy superior self-righteous wife and inferior retarded fat oaf husband. Plus, this is a patriarchal culture which feels women need to be a protected class of citizens on top of feminazism being in effect for most of the time television programming has existed.
on that 70s show Red is the nagging bitch and Kitty does little to no bitching I think?
Carrie is a nagging bitch, but it's acknowledged within the show that she is a nagging bitch and always has been. Debra, on the other hand, is praised as the hero within the show for being a nagging bitch because it's everyone else's fault she's like that.
King of Queens was almost a spiritual successor to Married With Children in that regard: All of the characters are shitty in their own way and acknowledge as such.
>Debra, on the other hand, is praised as the hero within the show
What the fuck are you talking about, she's never praised. By the show and audience alike.
>she's never praised. By the show and audience alike.
Are you retarded? The women in the audience CHEER whenever Debra is mean as fuck to Ray.
>that one episode where she's physically abusive to him because he wanted to relax on a Saturday and the cunts in the audience lose their minds
dam, she's hot.
>Debra literally shoves Raymond into a shelf with enough force that it shakes
>Audience women hoot and holler and screech
not at all really. Red just wants everyone to leave him alone, and Kitty always nags him into doing shit he doesn't want to deal with
Comedy exists in both unpredictability and oscillation. People accept these characters because they exist in reality and abstraction. A mother who isnt a bitch is either finding the line between 'traditional mother' and friend or simply doesnt exist
Bitchy mothers is what we all can relate to, and that is the biggest root of comedy
Fresh Prince of Bel Air
Pretty much any show that focused on kids was more about the dad being the dick, where shows about parents were just the wife pissing on the dad's day, unless the wife was rarely the comedian basis, like Roseanne.
She was chill as fuck and seemed annoyed by the kids more than anything. Mr. Brady probably put her to sleep everynight.
