Oh fuck me. For a moment I started to think “no. Married with Children was already over 23 years ago” then I quickly realized that holy shit, Futurama is already over 23 years old.

And the reference is a show that ran until 1997. So a small slice of the audience was too young at the time.

I assumed it was a shot for shot parody of an episode. Guess it could just as easily be of all of them.
