Family Circus
Dotted-line cartoon
Family Circus is a long-running American comic strip featuring the wholesome domestic life of a suburban family, known for its circular panel format and gentle humor about childhood innocence.
The strip's saccharine tone makes it a frequent target of parody and ironic appreciation: It's like something out of Family Circus.
