* ValuesDissonance: It's interesting to note how this show and its SpiritualSuccessor, ''Series/ThePoliticiansHusband'' both treat the subject of [[MaritalRapeLicense marital rape]]. Although in both cases, the perpetrators [[KarmaHoudini escape any sort of criminal justice]], in ''Husband'', which is set in present-day 2013, both characters involved at least acknowledged it for what it was. ''Wife'', which is now a period piece, on the other hand, doesn't seem to comment on it, averting RapeAsDrama in a really weird way. In 1995, when it was made, the marital rape exception had only been taken off the books a few years previously, so one has to wonder whether either party actually thought of it as rape at all.
