* {{Applicability}}: Neurodivergent people, like autistic people, can relate to several oddities of the Coneheads, like the expospeak and inferring social customs through observation and deduction. This makes things like their friends and neighbours barely reacting to their behavior, and the fact that their love for each other and their daughter is very obvious and never in doubt, very sweet to see. Even seen how the humor is handled is nice, since it revolves around their behavior but without making them the butt of the joke.
