Is there a name for what seems to be a sitcom genre about kinda unpleasant people? You’re the worst, broad city, difficult people, always sunny in Philadelphia... Maybe I’m imagining it. Shared feature is I don’t like the characters enough to watch. Kinda like Jersey Shore++

Misanthropy + Comedy Misanthrocom? The genre is an outlet for frustration and alienation, especially of the Jeffersonian middle class, that might otherwise be channeled into more “productive” pursuits such as political activism or entrepreneurial striving.
