About All In The Family:
One of the most acclaimed comedy series of all time, All in the Family with Archie Bunker as the irascible, highly opinionated, working-class family man who viewed the world on his terms and his terms only. When not arguing with his liberal son-in-law, "Meathead," Archie took refuge in his long-suffering wife, Edith, who tries her best to understand Archie's conservative ways and outdated beliefs.

I remember when Archie was working as a taxi driver and ended up saving the life of Beverly Lasalle by giving her mouth-to-mouth. When Beverly comes to Archie's house to thank him, Archie finds out she is really a he when Beverly pulls off her wig and says Archie can call her "mister!" The look on his face was priceless! In a later episode, Archie became friends with her, and in a much later episode, Beverly Lasalle returned to the show for the last time and ended up getting mugged and killed. Archie was genuinely sad about that.

It did what Norman Lear intended - it brought things out in the open so they could be discussed. "All in the Family" covered all the big things except child molesting and two other sit-coms covered that. Though I didn't like the episodes because of the subject matter, I did like they covered r*pe with both Gloria and Edith. They also covered Gloria's miscarriage very well - I honestly cannot think of another program that covered this.

I think the last really good one to me was 7, The Jefferson's too, I liked the one where Archie got black blood. Season 8 started the trend of bigger elements of risk or controversies, usually not executed that well (not that they would be any better by Jeff Franklin, I think that could describe it) such as the K.K.K. episode and stuff like that. The Jefferson's actually didn't do this in Season 8, it just felt a little different with the casting changes. I will say though, the characters still stayed in character pretty well, the plots just seemed out of place. Maybe it had to do with it being the season where Archie bought the bar? I think the show started to improve again in Season 3 of the sequel, though, maybe about as good as season 7.

Archie transforms from an Obstinate, Thoughtless Lug to complete Jello!! All because if his love and complete dependence on Edith. If I were to choose the most powerful moment in television history this would be it. Case Closed. Althoufg, these other clips aren't bad either!!.

@@abdurobinson6827 The biggest issue with it, I think, is that Archie is portrayed as a genuinely decent person in this show. He's heavily flawed but he is, at heart, a good noble person, who is a genuine character with development, and who even makes salient points and even gets to be right at times. That would never fly today because if this show was made now Archie would be expected to just be a strawman to be portrayed as a remorseless racist and sexist to be lectured by the "proper" characters. Rather than him getting to stand his ground against the Meathead, who is also a heavily flawed by decent person, Archie would be a complete bag of shit to be lectured by Michael who would be this perfect paragon who would chastise him with crap like "You have to do better Senator!"

Edith's "change" is absolutely right. Very well could be the best episode. I remember watching that episode on our first color TV. I was 9 I think. I had to have my mother explain. But that is the one episode I distinctly remember because Edith was not herself. Things like menopause were not discussed on TV at the time. It is one of the taboos that this show broke. And if you weren't around in the early 1970s, you may not realize how groundbreaking this show was. Watching again as an adult makes me appreciate it even more.

We caught whatever TV brought us, and were not offended by anything! As for being mature, and able to talk about things...only in ones fantasy. Those were the days of ignorance; and maturity was only achieved after a tour/or two, of Viet Nam. Then you lost the childishness, rapidly. You are obviously a child of, no earlier than, the 1990's, and believe you know what you're saying...well, I'm here to tell you, that's the wrong guess!

Never to network TV, the land of unbelievably ridiculous reality TV. AitF is too controversial and well written. A once in a lifetime show, Lear caught lightning in a bottle. The only series worth following any longer are on cable and streaming services.

It's a shame with todays "cancel culture," this show (if made today) would never make it to air. Not even sure they would air on a subscription network. I mean, Archie showing up to his grandsons birth with black-face, him using the F-word (3 letters) to refer to gay characters or the sexist things he said or did. I would like to think that maybe the way they pointed out his faults perhaps changed some viewers for the better. There were some really good lessons of tolerance and acceptance going on here.

Frankly, there were far many more episodes funnier than #2. The first two episodes with cousin Maude were classics. I’ll always remember watching the first ever episode of All In The Family when the show came on TV for the first time. I was 15 and my dad was in his 50s (there was a definite generation gap between us; e.g. long hair ISSUES). We laughed like hell watching it together, as we never saw any5ing like that on TV.

My favorite episode of many is when Archie talked about his father "busting his hand on him to teach him to do good". Explained a lot about Archie. Also when Gloria had a miscarriage, when Sammy Davis Jr. kissed him, when Edith was attacked in her home, when Mike and Gloria moved with his grandson. There was a soft spot to Archie and it showed many times. The show was satire to show what a bigot and racist really is. I still remember my parents who never missed this or SNL.

@ongogablogian8568 Жыл бұрын

You like some of the more dramatic episodes, just as I do. The episode with Archie and Mike locked in Archie's Place storeroom explained a lot about what made Archie the man he was, just as the time Edith explained to Mike that Archie was jealous of Mike's education and prospects for the future. My favorite was the episode of Mike and Gloria moving to Cali. Thing is, I don't think of Archie as racist, he certainly had enough black people come through his house and insisted on going to Lionel's engagement party. Archie was just a product of his times.
