  Homer is an abusive father, is he really an abusive husband though?

  I wouldn’t call either of those family-friendly. The Simpsons more so though.

    Flintstones was mostly for adults. It was prime time. Hell, they advertised cigarettes!

    I’m not sure about now, but very much in the 90s. I wasn’t allowed to watch them growing up.
