The first couple of seasons really pushed the envelope at the time. I remember episodes where my jaw would just drop.

I don't think the shock value is there anymore and probably people watching those episodes for the first time wouldn't be shocked due to shifts in our culture. For example, The Simpsons was incredibly controversial when it came out. However, if you look back at the first season, you'd wonder what the big deal was about.
