I’m gonna say something bold:

Surprisingly not a problem for some shows, good example is Simpson golden age.

There is a gay episode but it’s mostly about Homer overreacting.

A lot of the satire of Simpson is trying to be functional in a dysfunctional system, which has aged like the greatest wine that frank grimes can’t afford.

We can put King of the Hill in that camp as well I think.

I think it's a better and more rounded show than any of them.

It's a bit awkward, because Kahn was Toby Huss doing a problematic accent, but is also generally praised for representation of SEA culture.

The Simpsons was pretty progressive though

Yeah, GrandWolf319 was commending the show. :)
