comment
The Kids Are Alright is a semi-autobiographical American Dom Com that premiered on ABC in 2018. It was inspired by the childhood of creator Tim Doyle, who also acts as the show's narrator.Mike and Peggy Cleary are a working class Irish-American couple raising their eight sons (with a 20 year gap between the eldest and youngest) in suburban Los Angeles during the 1970s. The show is primarily told from the perspective of Timmy, the fifth son, as he tries to figure out how to navigate adolescence and his large and loud family.Not to be confused with The Kids Are Alright, a documentary film about The Who, or The Kids Are All Right, a film about a lesbian couple and their children.The show was cancelled after 1 season in 2019.

Microwave Misuse: Mike brings a microwave prototype home for testing. Peggy resents it because she sees it as an intrusion in her kitchen, so she sabotages it by putting a fork inside and turning it on. It shorts out a fuse and causes a blackout.

Hidden Depths: It's shown that Frank hates being so co-dependent with Peggy, and likes to help others, and work as a stagehand. Despite their gruff exteriors, Peggy and Mike do care about their boys happiness and well-being. Peggy is shown to be an excellent artist in "Nine Birthdays", making a set of well-crafted Richard Nixon candles that sell very well and is able to reproduce the set of a kid show for Timmy.

In reality, Timmy is secretly doing a puppet show about his family and he got glue on the sheets. So when Lawrence and Timmy talk, Lawrence is taken aback when Timmy says he likes to do it with an audience, mainly on the children's section of the library.

Missing the Good Stuff: Timmy is told that on an upcoming Bob Hope TV special, Barbara Eden wears a revealing costume that at one point shows "Everything" (though he's not sure what "everything" actually means at first). As the special airs, a fuse blows due to Peggy sabotaging the new microwave oven Mike brought home, and the power goes out just as Eden was supposedly about to expose herself.

Jerkass Realization: Wendi realizes that she's been a little too hard on Eddie, and realizes that it's okay if they're on different paths.

The Friend Nobody Likes: None of the Cleary boys particularly like being around Frank since he'll go whining to their mother at the slightest hint of trouble.

Deliberate Values Dissonance: A lot of humor is mined by showing how different parenting was in the 1970's.

Everyone Has Standards: While Mike is usually fine with Peggy's parenting style, he doesn't approve of her love list, because it was pinning the boys against one another and briefly put a strain on Timmy and William's relationship.

Mistaken for Masturbating: Timmy left a glue stain on his bedsheet while making a secret puppet show. It gets worse when he starts gluing his puppets over a Sears catalog... over the women's coats section.

Hypocrite: Invoked. Mike points out to Peggy that it's impossible for them to have one blanket approach to all their sons and they have to address issues case by case, even if it means being hands on with one son while being hands off with another.

Mama's Boy: Frank is the most eager to please Peggy, going so far as to become the family snitch and rat out his brothers so that he can look good in comparison. In his words, he "worships the woman" which the others find abnormal.
