Sanford and Son (1972)

The American sitcom "Sanford and Son" is an adaptation of the British series "Steptoe and Son." The main characters, originally established as white in the British source material, were portrayed as Black in the American adaptation, constituting a race swap.

The show satirizes the hypocrisy and judgmentalism of individual Christian characters, such as Fred or Aunt Esther, but consistently portrays the faith itself and its community aspects in a positive light. The narrative often condemns bigotry against Christian practices or adherents.

Similar to Judaism, the show portrays prejudice against Islam through Fred's ignorant reactions and comments. The narrative consistently satirizes his bigotry, thereby condemning narrow-mindedness and prejudice against the faith.

The narrative uses Fred's character to satirize and condemn anti-Semitic stereotypes and prejudiced remarks. The audience is consistently positioned to laugh at Fred's ignorance rather than endorse his bigoted views.
