>>86572847>actually didn't mind Peggy, later find out everyone hates herIt's the flipside of the "doofus husband, sensible wife" archetype, the husband is going to be more entertaining than the wife. Homer is going to do funny things Marge isn't. Linda's actually pretty OK, though, because she's as goofy as the rest of the cast in her own way.
It's a similar problem with live-action dramas, the husband's involved with the actual hook of the show and the wet-blanket housewife exists because you gotta have a family drama side-plot.
