These are what we call the 'YMMV items.' Things that some people find in this work. We call them 'your mileage might vary' because not everyone sees these things in the same way. This starts discussions in the trope lists, a thing we don't want. Please use the discussion page if you'd like to discuss any of these items.
Deader than Disco: Unlike most Sit Coms of its era, Murphy Brown is rarely seen in syndication due to the now-dated political references.
Unfortunately, the show does not deserve the label, as younger tropers who get a chance to see the show will likely appreciate most of its humor regardless of how dated it may seem, and several issues discussed, from journalistic integrity to slimy politicians are just as relevant today. Consider the episode where FYI visits Murphy's alma mater, and Murphy is shocked that her generation's advances in women's rights are seemingly meaningless to a new generation of Straw Feminists and would-be housewives, debating points that are still being argued over today.
Reverse Funny Aneurysm: After Murphy's attempt to get an interview with the recently instated President Clinton goes horribly wrong, the Secret Service informs her that she is is banned from speaking to the President for the next "four, maybe eight years" after which she can "discuss the matter with President Gore... Or so he thinks."
