I know they still pop up in anime but I don't watch that Naruto crap.

Quagmire got toned down / censored so what's left of him is being a weirdo social conservative who loves cats.

They even acknowledged this in the terminator episode a while back where they labeled him as "has no comedic angle anymore"

Fez is still on that 90s show.

Kim Cattrall on How I Met Your Father is a perv even though her younger self as Hilary Duff is not.

Archer and most of the cast of his show

It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia, most notably Frank but also everyone

Most of SouthPark

What We Do in the Shadows...also everyone

Actually most FX comedies than not overall

I just watched that episode too. Quagmire isn't as funny anymore, Brian's a total scumbag, they barely show Herbert anymore (which to be honest I'm fine with never like that character). Like most shows it's going downhill. Everything is becoming a little to PC

Is Austin Powers really a pervert per se if he's an international sex symbol that everyone wants to fuck? I don't remember him doing anything non consensual

A pervert is just someone whose primary thought on their mind is sex.

No. More like he's sex positive. He's done nothing that wasn't consensual.

He's listed as an example of this trope.

If it's about non-consensual then the whole point of lovable pervert is contradictory.

Yeah, from what I read, the FG writers have no idea what to do with his family or how to write them. In Cleveland's show, they were fully-fleshed-out characters, but now they're just blank extras or fulfill the Black Best Friend spot for the main cast.

Yep. Two that come to mind based off clips I watched are him making a remark about a bunch of young kids that he has, and he also essentially gave OS to Joe's infant daughter off-screen.

Dude that is a big plot on the show. Joey calls himself that to help hide Monica and Chandlers relationships.

Having orgies with large quantities of nubile women at the same time is not perverted in the slightest.

Nor orgies with sexbots or Japanese twins... for that matter.

This is not perverted. This is a normal heterosexual man's reaction to twins that are sexually interested in him.

This, though you still see it in anime's and it kinda gets really annoying. Like you'll have the "lovable pervert" character constantly sexually harassing a female character only for them to "beat them up" and the character just keeps on doing it because it's played for laughs.

You can write a good perverted character without making them a harassing douche

Vox Machina on Prime has Scanlan who's a certified freak and ain't shameless about it, it's characterized by how often he flirts and him mentioning his several exploits, but it doesn't make his entire character

Same. Heard so many great things about it I decided to check it out a few years ago. I watched 1 or 2 episodes and just couldn't.

I'm not against fanservice, but when the fanservice is gratuitous, it's fucking annoying for me.

Was like the first or 2nd episode with the main guy just outright groping the woman.

Yes it is. A recent episode had Lois and Peter go to a therapist because she wanted him to go down on her but he didn't like doing that so she had the therapist hypnotize peter so when he heard a certain catchphrase he would go down on any female in his vicinity. Basically it ended up with Peter eating out Lois' mom without consent and then him trying to do the same thing to Meg at the end of the episode
