He was a teacher of speech and english in Ireland who was very liberal on race and bigotry. It thought fighting over it was a waste of time. He was an intellect who was an expert of all processes of plays and stage production completely opposite of the character he played. The show was to turn people around and think about all the bigotry that is out there. You did the world a great service.

You made me and my dad laugh hysterically. I wished i could have met you once when you were alive. It would have been an honor, Mr. O'Connor, sir!

Look at poor pop down here without ya! Well that hurt! God I love this man!

Great shows like this would not exist in todays damn world

I will never forget you archie you gave every working man in this country a reason to get up everyday and go to work. Your love for your family and your friends. god bless you Carol O'Conner.

My favorite show from the 1970s, and Archie Bunker is my all-time favorite sitcom character. Love Carroll O'Connor! Rest in peace, Sir, and thanks for the million-plus laughs, not not to mention tears. Your superb acting tugged on every emotional heartstring within me.

Totally loved and admired this Man...excellent actor! ~Marion

I have to wish you Carroll O’Connor a happy birthday 🥳 on this day ! 97 today you would be! Miss you! Many miss you! Your in my heart always

some people should never die.

I really miss and love carroll o. Connor :(!

I cant remember watching original of this show but I discovered it quite accidental on You Tube! The first thing that Archie did to make me giggle was his "raspberry" thing. I was so surprised by it I burst out laughing ! I wonder why he didnt mention it in some of his interviews. Never saw any thing like it Wish I had the nerve to do that to some people I know! The more I watchedAll In The Family the more I came to really love Archie Bunker and Carroll O'Connor. I found I could relate and agree with alot of what Archie was expressing Wish I could have met him in person.! I loved Edith to. Now Im watching Sun nights on METV!

He was the best.

What a class act guy Carroll O'Conner was. One of the best actors of all times, RIP Mr.O'Conner.

We need more Caroll O’Connor’s in today’s America, To put it into words, I fucking miss that guy!!!

What a genuine!!! Down to earth!! 1 of a kind man! The book I have and enjoyed it! Some times speechless on thought what my heart can’t put into words about this man ! Carroll O’Connor! A hero you are to me Mr. O’Connor! Miss ya!

Still watch him and Edith in All in The Family. It lifts my heart and spirit. ❤

Love this man.

Anyone ever noticed that the intro to the animated show Family Guy is a tribute to All in the Family opening? You can always tell a great show because it remains relevant and funny no matter how much time passes, All in the Family may be the best example one can find of this, it had sharp writing, great actors, topical subjects and an unflinching view of the world. You see it now and cracks you up just like it did back in the day. Boy the way Glenn Miller played, songs that made the hit parade!

A wonderful man, a beautiful soul, and a beloved actor. Rest in peace, Carroll.

All our love Mr. O'Connor, for all you gave us.

When All in the Family was over, so was Carroll O'Connor as Archie Bunker. I never saw him in character away from the show.

The guy was one of the best . An actor that had a human side that was very down to earth. The total opposite of the Archie Bunker character. I remember him saying once in an interview that "he loved to play the part of the sheriff in The Heat of the Night because it showed his audience the opposite of the Archie character." He was saying that in real life he had no bigotries at all.

Thank you for sharing yourself your wisdom your humor even your pain and love for your son. I hope our souls will keep traveling together in much lighter circumstances

i love this guy, there was something special about archie bunker,i CANT put my finger on it, he just HAD IT. r.i.p ARCH we miss you (yur fanz) 4 (always)

We currently watch "In the Heat of the Night" every night its on.

"Those ...Were... The....Daaaaaays.!."

He was amazing in every role he played. And what a life!

God bless you Mr. O'Connor!

Archie was the best o loved watching him on tv

He's a great actor

I adore(d) Carroll O'Connor.

What a wonderful man!

Archie Bunker was the best character on TV in my opinion

God Bless the late Carol. I saw him on Dawson's Creek.

Does anyone here realize what Carroll O'Connor was trying to do by playing the Archie Bunker character? He was trying to point out just how foolish people looked who shared the character's views.

ARCHIE. WILL LIVE. FOREVER. DEM. WERE. THE DAYS. !

What a great guy! I'm 58 years old and half my friends and family think I'm a "conservative" and the other half think I'm a "liberal". That must mean I think for myself and ignore the expected Party Line. Being true to my Libertarian Roots makes me dislike Socialism almost as much as I dislike Conservative Corporatism. Thanks "Archie"!! RIP- Carroll O'Connor...

Great Actor

Seems like a sweet man

@143AC archie was an amazing character, just like the actor was amazing.

2:32 CLASSIC

😃😇☀️🥰🌞😍💛

2:34 CLASSIC lol

Carroll was a great actor. He made Archie come alive. People don't realize how difficult it is to do comedy.

I saw him one time on an interview and they asked him to do Archie, and he would not. I don't think he was anything like archie. He said he did know guys like him.

Archie b the best there was

Will you STIFFLE it HEEEERE !

This year is Carroll's birth centennial.

He was a good actor, but Damn i hated that show. As a kid back then we only had 4 TV Channels and had to watch what Pops was wathchin or just go to my room and play, which I did, most of the time with my hot wheels racing set or my electric football game. Man the early 70's were good times!

Talk about completely owning a character!!! Well, well done Mr. O'Connor!!!

damn carrol never aged

too cool

BTW Fixing to become 73!

Carroll O'Connor I think was a wonderful actor and intelligent and refined man. But I think he was a broken man because of the death of his son.he may have felt guilty thinking he didn't do enough to save him I watched an interview he did right before he passed. And it sounded like he was feeling a bit of guilt. Because when his son called and told him he was going to kill him self. He sent dectectives he was friends with to check on him. He said he was always to busy with his work. Feel so sad for him. I'm a big fan and he always could draw that emotion out. Rest in peace 🙏 Carroll O'Connor

Good advice on keeping your kids off drugs

It's a real shame that shows like this are the minority these days (The Simpsons and South Park being the exception). Television has become an intellectual wasteland. That's a shame, because our 21st Century world is far more complex (and potential dangerous) that what it was in the 70's. Shows like this were great, because they not only provided entertainment, but also a 'canvas' in which to discuss social issues. Great art never dies...

He was a total opposite of the character he played. He was liberal on race, very educated and a real intelligent

God needed him what a question to ask him what do you say to yuor son now

Everyday

He was the opposite of his character.

What pisses me off is that Carol O' Connor blames himself in part for his son's death. And he blamed a drug dealer. His selfish son is the one who took drugs. And you can't watch someone 24/7.
