So I've went back and been binge watching this old show. The first few seasons are a little more boring, but the show reaches it's peak at about season 5 or 6. What sticks out to me though is how accurate it was about society today. Back then it was all exaggerated for comedic purposes...but today it's reality.
Example for those that have never seen the show
Al Bundy (Main Character) - In a miserable marriage that he can't leave for financial reasons. Former Chad of his high school. But got married at a young age and destroyed his life. His wife and kids mock him and make fun of him. Generally no one respects him or likes him.
Peg Bundy - His wife who was a used up Stacy. Multiple references to the fact that she slept around with many men in high school. Also implied that she wants to cheat on Al but doesn't. Al doesn't want to sleep with her even though shes pretty attractive for an older lady. The reason for this is the shows initially wanted an unattractive fat woman to play the wife (Roseanne was approached about the part), but Fox would not allow it. So if you go by the original direction of the show, Al would have been saddled with a 300 lb disgusting wife...which even more looks like today.
Kelly Bundy - Al's slutty daughter. Constantly on the cock carousel. Has no ambitions, hobbies, or intelligence. Just wants to be popular and fuck as many guys as possible. All of her boyfriends are complete screw ups or deadbeats.
Bud Bundy - Al's son who is vertically challenged. The whole series he is mocked by generally everyone for being short. It wasn't till late seasons that a girl would be interested in him. Even then it was rare or for ulterior motives. He was also mocked mercilessly for being a virgin. If this show as on now, he would most definitely have an online presence at Incel /r9k/ /pol/ etc.
Marcy - The feminist neighbor. Boy did they nail it here. The actress nailed the feminist bitch part down. After the first few seasons, her husband leaves her and goes his own way. After this she becomes a feminist. Constantly battling with Al and preaching women rights etc until she becomes a hated character in the show. She later on gets a good looking husband who is just with her because she makes a lot of money at the bank.
Steve Rhoades - The first husband who leaves her. Basically a normal character that got tired of his wife.
Jefferson Darcy - The second husband. Basically a Chad that sticks around just to use Marcy's money.
But I saved the most important part for last.
No Ma'am = MGTOW
No Ma'am was a group formed by Al in the later seasons. It stood for National Organization of Men Against Amazonian Masterhood. It basically was a group that preached abstinence with the wives if you were married. And to talk to single men into never marrying.
I just thought these were weird and see what you guys think about it.

My favorite episode- no ma'am takes over a dr. phil like show with host called "the male feminist" (or something close), At the end of the episode the police barge in and unties him and one of the officers ask him:
"Hey, are you the male feminist?"
"Yes"
"Tie him back up!"
