The Simpsons by the Data
It blows my mind that even The Simpsons has become a target of gender bias accusations.<p>The Simpsons is probably one of the tamest, least hostile television shows I can imagine at this point. Comparing The Simpsons to the rest of TV, without bringing the broader premium cable, internet and subscriber systems into the mix, The Simpsons displays fairly mild jabs at so many tropes, and usually does so in ways that are at least a little more interesting than the rest of TV.<p>Beyond all of this, Matt Groening is fairly progressive in his humor. And even though, he's long since had much direct influence on the content of the show, his initial creativity still brought forward more unique themes in the 90's than what was previously common at that time. So many topics found a voice in The Simpsons' animation than ever before, and previously simply had no voice at all.<p>At this point, I'm pretty fatigued at this endless death march of character assassination wherever character may be found.<p>People who constantly look for a fight in anything at this point instantly lose my respect.
