is there a prime time broadcast show that does not emphasize tawdry sex jokes?

My sister was watching TV tonight I heard the punchline “I was masturbating” on at least 3 of them.

A fair comment, I suppose. I remember watching "Happy Days" and "Laverne & Shirley" with my parents when I was growing up. Those were not really high quality shows -- but a family could sit together and watch them. It was nice. You just can't watch TV like that any more.

I guess just about all shows today are tawdry and overly sexual. But I would still maintain that Chuck Lorre tries very hard to push the envelope on network TV. The man desperately wants to produce crap, and he succeeds.

Eeeewwwww.

I guess this is why I don't watch a lot of TV.

I do like "South Park, though and that one can get pretty gross.
