I actually tried to watch a TV sitcom several years ago (I usually only watch movies on my Blu Ray/DVD). The title was “The World According To Jim” and starred James Belushi.

It was so insipid I had to turn it off as it portrayed the husband as a dolt and the beautiful wife as a rocket scientist.

Yet through the episode I found out that the husband had a job of some sorts and the wife stayed home. Their home was very nice too, so how could the man be such a twit yet make the requisite money needed to not only have a nice home but allow his wife to not work?

I don't watch much TV any more.

I liked that show better back when it was called, "The Honeymooners."

You didn’t watch nearly enough then. Jim routinely got the better of his scheming wife. It was a staple of the show.
