The writing on that show was really wild, and not in a tacky way like Roseanne after she won the lottery. It almost seems to take place in a parallel trashy cartoonish universe.
A lot of popular American media in the 90s (especially the late 90s) embraced trashy attitudes; Married w/ Children, Roseanne, Jerry Springer, Seinfeld, South Park, Beavis & Butthead, Celebrity Deathmatch... I miss the angsty nihilism of that decade so much. Imagine a guy like Marilyn Manson blowing up the pop charts today. Shit just doesn't happen.
