TV was a lot more family-friendly in those days. You could still see things like sexual innuendo and in some cases fanservice. But they were played down. Families in dom coms were usually fairly conventional though they tended to have an eccentricity as a gimmick to make them run.

Detective shows were more likely to focus on the PI rather then the force. Also forensic dramas were unknown.
