    Married With Children would have ended when millennials were somewhere between 16 and 1.

    It doesn’t really matter how strict your parents were with TV. Most millennials weren’t really in the target demographic for it when it was airing; they’d have been more likely to be watching Rugrats, Power Rangers, All That, Dragon Ball Z or whatever if left to their own devices.

    They’d have watched it if it were something their parents watched. I literally never deliberately turned on Friends or Will And Grace, but since my parents watched them, I saw a bunch of them. Married With Children wasn’t a show my parents followed, though, so the Futurama episode would have gone over my head.

    It really seems like a reference aimed mostly at the oldest millennials, gen X, and boomers.
