* ''Series/TheAddamsFamily''
** Morticia and Gomez were among the first TV couples who openly and passionately showed their affection for each other, they always functioned as a team, with one never keeping secrets or vocally resenting the other in any way. It's also completely egalitarian; any important decisions about the children, they make together. They both show complete respect to each other at all times, and even when they disagree, they always try to hear the other one out and reach a solution they both can agree upon.
** There's also the parents' relationship with their children. Gomez is decidedly not a BumblingDad but rather an extremely active co-parent with Morticia, who in turn is not automatically viewed as correct because WomenAreWiser, instead always consulting with Gomez about the kids. They actively encourage Wednesday's and Pugsley's habits--whatever they may be--and teach them everything from fine arts to dance to mechanical engineering. It's telling that in the very first episode, Gomez is originally against sending Wednesday and Pugsley to school not because of the curriculum, but because he wants to be around his kids as much as possible. And even when the children misbehave or take up (comparatively) "weird" hobbies like joining the Boy Scouts, Gomez and Morticia are always shown as supportive even when they don't necessarily approve.
