[[Mike Judge]]'s most recent animated series effort after ''[[King of the Hill]]''. Just as that show was a parody of Middle America, ''The Goode Family'' skewers the other side of the political spectrum, as exemplified by the titular family of liberals who do their best to maintain political correctness in all facets of their lifestyle, as difficult as it can be at times.
 
The family consists of Gerald, a community college professor; Helen, a self-proclaimed activist; Bliss, their snarky teenage daughter, and Ubuntu, their adopted African son who turned out to be a white South African. Other characters include Che, the family dog whom they raised as a vegan (but who often sneaks out to eat wild animals and neighborhood pets), and Charlie, Helen's sarcastic father who doesn't approve of their lifestyle.
 
Originally airing on [[ABC]], it was canceled during its only season. [[Comedy Central]] now airs reruns of the show.
