Just remembered that episode of The Simpsons where Mr. Burns runs over Bart (hexbear.net)

The moral of the episode was seriously ”it's wrong to lie to get lots of money from an evil rich guy”? They should've taken Burns to the cleaners, Marge was totally the villain of the episode with her whining about how wrong it was to lie.

They've done this recently with their media piracy episode. They set up a whole community theater in their backyard, and Marge sends some money to the production company when she finds out how they got the movies. She frequently ruins some of the less than legal fun they get up to

They even did an early ”anti-piracy” episode with Lisa agonizing over the family going to hell because of free cable.

Unless I'm misremembering, even Always Sunny had an anti piracy episode where the moral of the story is that Hollywood makes shit films because of piracy.
