S1 E6: No sitcom finds more endlessly inventive humor in implicit class tensions than Frasier, as a working-class father tries to get along with his sublimely high-brow sons. But though the American Dream of social mobility underpins America's social contract, that dream is so often beyond reach that it takes sitcom humor to help laugh at the struggles of getting ahead. The Honeymooners, The Beverly Hillbillies, The Andy Griffith Show, Good Times, Alice and Roseanne all offer funny snapshots at class divisions in America, divisions that are even starker in Arrested Development and Schitt's Creek. But It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia that asks the hardest, perhaps funniest question of all - is this aspirational game we're all playing really rigged against us? Featuring sitcoms such as The Honeymooners, The Beverly Hillbillies, The Andy Griffith Show, Good Time, Alice, Roseanne, Arrested Development, Schitt's Creek, and It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia.
