So, I suggested this on the main thread:

1.1.

But then I wondered if using an older sitcom might be better:

1.2.

1.3.

1.4.

Edit: I meant to list the reason as suggestion.

Good morning, and good night, I hardly ever sleep. With what I have, what else do you think I'd ever need?

I'm going to be honest,I vote for Black Ish just for the name alone.

To win, you need to adapt, and to adapt, you need to be able to laugh away all the restraints. Everything holding you back.

[up] Agreed.

My plan is to trick you into thinking this is my signature when it’s not, then confuse you silly. Doubting my plan? Then it's working!

[tup] 1.1; the title gives it an advantage over the others for me.

[up]I disagree. Each of the suggestions is so crowded that a collage of them at wiki-size will make it impossible to see individual faces. I prefer 1.1 because of the title.

Also, a collage wouldn’t show anything more than a single does—all four just show Black families.

I would say Family Matters just for the prestige. I would agree with Black-ish just based on the name alone though.

I like 1.2 best because it shows the characters in their home, hitting the "situation" part of the trope.

I think pic 1.1 is the best pic so I'm giving that my [tup]. The title even say Blackish which sounds appropriate for the trope page (I hope that's okay for me to emphasize)

I feel like a pun on "dark humor" would be in really bad taste, so I'll say no caption for now.

It's a sitcom-ish type of show.
