I haven't watched the video yet, but it always strikes me as odd when people call this show as a whole misogynistic.
The first season definitely was though, but the other 9 seasons constantly made fun of the male "nerds" and depicted the women as superior in almost every joke.
You should watch it
As I expected, a lot of the scenes where from Season 1 and/or taken out of context.
After watching the video I'd still argue that calling a show misogynistic that has has 90% misandristic jokes and 10% misogynistic jokes is misleading at best. Yes the show definitely has misogynistic jokes in it, but singling out that aspect of such a train wreck of a show only harms any real discussion about the topic.
