@@EricBarryComedy1 "Mom" finished its eight-season run in 2021. "Bob ❤ Abishola" is a multi-cam in its fourth season, has been renewed for a fifth (likely ensuring syndication) and examines the romance, then marriage, between the white owner of a sock company in Detroit and the black Nigerian immigrant nurse who guided him back to health following a heart attack. Several Nigerians are in the cast as actors or writers, thus giving the series some verisimilitude.
I get you , I hear you, I agree. Sitcoms used to have a moral to the story, a learning lesson, a point, something that would touch you, something clever . and they would also develop deep characters to get to know and love , part of a cast with real chemistry that came thru the TV screen to draw you in. Today the thing that irks me the most and just takes the joy and respect from a sitcom is the sexual innuendo. Real bummer, no, really its evil.
Ehhh the "Full House" style morals to the story were always cheesy and predictable to me, and at the expense of the comedy. They were trying to be family friendly for advertising dollars
Check out some of Chuck Lorre's more recent sitcoms, such as "Mom" or "Bob ♥ Abishola," which blend good writing and acting with thoughtful topics.
