The PJs can be plenty funny when it isn't crude and offensive—and even when it is.

Once you get a load of Murphy's grouchy-but-lovable super Thurgood Stubbs, with his straight-up bristly hair and sofa-cushion cheeks, you'll never mistake him for any other cartoon character. The show itself is rather more conventional: a sitcom straight out of the Honeymooners tradition of working-class comedy, with Thurgood a kind of black Ralph Kramden.
