Changes

* TV sitcoms ''[[All in the Family]]'' and its first spinoff, ''Maude'', included controversial subjects in an often depressing way. ''Maude'' for example, had its title character getting an [[abortion]] in its first year. Later sitcoms ''Married With Children'', ''Roseanne'', ''[[The Simpsons]]'' (latter is still running since its December 1989 pilot debut), ''[[South Park]]'', ''[[Family Guy]]'' and ''According to Jim'' are also full of such humor.

* ''[[Hogan's Heroes]]'' may be seen by some as offensive humor due to its unreal depiction of [[Nazi]] POW camps during [[World War II]].  However, Werner Klemperer (who played Colonel Klink) was born in Germany to a Jewish father; his family was able to emigrate to the United States before World War II started, and he refused to accept the role unless Klink was portrayed as an unsuccessful fool.

* ''[[South Park]]'' — uses constant iterations of urine, feces, farting and shock humor, such as jokes about [[abortion]], [[rape]] and the [[Holocaust]].

* ''[[South Park]]'' — uses constant iterations of urine, feces, farting and shock humor, such as jokes about [[abortion]], [[rape]] and the [[Holocaust]]. It is loved and gets credits, however, for mocking and criticizing [[politically correct]] and [[woke]] pseudo-culture as well as [[liberal]] hypocrisy and education. It can't be said the same for the more recent and "modern" seasons of (once) [[politically incorrect]] and irreverent series like ''[[The Simpsons]]'' and ''[[Family Guy]]''.

*''There's Something About Mary'' — contains gratuitous sex and jokes about bodily functions.

*''[[Family Guy]]'' — notorious for its shock tactics, this show routinely employs willful tastelessness for "comedic" shock value. Examples include one regular character, Herbert, who is a homosexual [[pedophilia|pedophile]], a talking pet dog, Brian, who constantly drinks, as well as constant Hitler and Holocaust jokes.
