And I liked how the character of Archie developed. How he mellowed over time...a little. The death of Jean Stapleton and her character, Edith, the introduction of his half Jewish niece who he loved like his own daughter and who loved him unconditionally... I like how Norman Lear did not try to make Archie a villain. And although the humor mellowed a bit with Archie, the show never lost the humor. It just evolved as do real people. Well...some, lol.

I grew up watching “All In The Family” starting in 1971 when I was 5. My parents and usually some relatives or friends would come over on Sunday nights and it was one of those shows that EVERYONE watched. My favorite character was Edith because she was just so hilarious, the episode where she invites a married couple over not realizing that they’re swingers has to be one of the funniest shows ever on tv. But she could also be quite dramatic. The way that show could switch from funny to dramatic in a flash was really something that had never been done before on tv. Edith was just someone you wanted to be your mother or grandmother. The episode where she died was so devastating to me that I never watched that episode again

Also in Good Times, when Florida opens the telegram telling her James is dead.

Archie wasn't racist or bigoted he was wonderfully ignorant and set in his old school ways. Actor Carrol O'Connor played the character of Archie with such subtle genius that Archie would say incredibly insensitive and bigoted things in a manner that the audience knew were said out of blind ignorance not hate. All in the Family tackled so many taboo and awkward issues in a clever and thoughtful way. Making it even more special was that Carroll O'Connor was the antithesis of man he portrayed. In today's world I think All in the Family would go along way in easing society's ills if a network had the courage to bring it back in prime time and not be relegated to the TV Lands of cable TV.

As a child in the 70's I grew up on All In The Family. It was a wonderfully funny show, well written and dealt with real life issues in a way that todays sitcoms would never be allowed. There was an episode where a new family moved in across from Archie. George Jefferson, his wife Louise and son Lionel. They owned a dry cleaning business. They also happened to be black. George was in many ways like Archie. We enjoyed watching them interact as neighbors for many years until the Jeffersons moved uptown as his business grew. We now had a spin off show to watch in The Jeffersons, another show that would never air in todays environment.

All in the Family is based on the British sitcom Till Death Us Do Part. American writer Norman Lear watched an episode and saw himself and his father constantly arguing and throwing insults at each other. Lear’s dad called him Meathead, which is what Archie Bunker called his son in law. Please react to more All in the Family.

Archie is a tv legend! A true pioneer of television comedy. May he RIP.

O' Connor was brilliant in the role; Archie Bunker didn't match his own beliefs or personality at all, of course.

“A Jewish name ain’t supposed to have no ham in it, Edith!” I’ve seen this episode countless times, and that line never fails to crack me up. *😂🤣😭💀*

I was only eight years old when All in the Family premiered in 1971 and my parents thought that, even though it was for “mature“ audiences, it had a lot of valuable lessons to teach, and we’d watch it as a family. I don’t think I missed one episode during the entire run. The irony is that Carroll O’Connor was the polar opposite of the Archie Bunker character.

The Draft Dodger episode is one of the best 30 minutes in TV history. O'Connor's performance at the Christmas dinner table is as good as it gets. The various subjects discussed on the show are still relevant today.

I was in my teens when this show was on. Archie Bunker WAS my Grandfather. His cigar, his favorite chair (Don't get caught in it!), his old country ways and his rock solid opinions. The biggest laughs in our house came when Archie would act just like Grandpa - which was often. I loved and respected that man more than anyone I've ever met in my life and I'm 67 now. I can still see that grin and glint in his eye when he said something clever. He left us in 1976 and I still miss him everyday.

All in the Family was one of the greatest televison shows ever! My dad had quite a few similarities with Archie... was a bit of a bigot, but had a heart of gold.. VERY set in his ways... Archie worked on the docks.. my dad worked at Brooklyn Navy Yard.. My dad opened a bar on Northern Blvd in Astoria Queens.. 3 years later Archie bought a bar on Northern Blvd in Astoria, Queens... Had a daughter with a VERY liberal boyfriend then husband.. My dad and him would argue and scream at each other for hours over politics "my dad's nickname for the guy was NOT as nice as "Meathead (dead from the neck up)" .. but they still loved each other. And they had the same accent which is a combination of Brooklyn and Queens! 😀 All in the Family could not be made today... It was made during a time when political differences were not enough to make you want to cut family out of your life. if it were made today, in the first episode Gloria would have told her father she hated him for being Republican and that would be the last time they ever spoke. Also... All in the Family was based off a BBC comedy called Till Death Do Us Part

My favourite episode was when Sammy Davis Jr guest starred. Lots of funny scenes.

I grew up in this show in the 70s, my parents watched it every week and I’d hear my dad laughing downstairs. This show could have relevance today, if people could open their hearts to humor again in thus country. 🇺🇸

Archie was the best for me growing up without cable in the 90s and 80s Archie was a true hero.

It's the live studio audience, the laughter was real, no laugh track. They knew the character so they would see things coming and the laughter started, I watched this show as a kid and I am 57 yrs. od now and still laugh out loud. And Archies facial expressions were hilarious. Thxs bokes.

Being from Scranton, Pa. I always loved that Scranton is where Edith was, with her sister, whenever she wasn't on the show.

Norman Lear got his idea for AITF after the British TV show 'Till Death Do Us Part'.

For several years, CBS-TV had a killer lineup on Saturday nights. All In The Family, M*A*S*H, The Mary Tyler Moore Show, The Bob Newhart Show, The Carol Burnett Show. You didn't have to change the channel all evening.

I was crying laughing so much. Archie was great

''You could never tell that Stretch was Jewish by looking at his face and I never seen nothing else'' What makes the line so hilarious is the reference to circumcision which was pretty risque for the 70's.

Archie Bunker was Alf Garnett’s American counterpart. TV show was based upon ‘Till Death Do Us Part’

I think its a damn shame we don't have shows like this anymore! It brings to the fore-front the social issues that we have to this day! It's when we don't talk about things..... that things become bigger and cause more issues... in my opinion.

All in the Family is based off the British sitcom, till death do us part. as is the Lear sitcom Sanford and Son based off the sitcom Steptoe and Son.

Carroll O'Connor (Archie) was part of a great cast. His wife was an incredibly gifted actress and award-winning stage performer. The son-in-law is Rob Reiner who was also a terrific actor whose Father was a writer with and best friend of Mel Brooks in the 50's (Carl Reiner--who you might recognize from his role in the Ocean's Eleven, Twelve, etc. movies. Was also creator of and actor on a very famous 60s show called the Dick Van Dyke show--starring DVD). Rob has directed such films as Stand By Me, A Few Good Men, When Harry Met Sally, This is Spinal Tap (which he co-wrote), The Princess Bride, Ghosts of Mississippi, and continued to act now and then, too.

All in the family was must see tv in my parents house for 30 years between its first run and then syndication. It was on at 5:30pm every weekday for most of my teen years and twenties, so a lot of memories are triggered by that show. Especially memorable was my mom laughing at Edith when she would look at Archie when they finished singing to opening tune together. True classic that was based off of your show there....till death do us part.

OMG!! I was laughing so hard I was literally crying 😂😂 you have to watch one with his neighbor George Jefferson.

I lost it at the "no more of that" moment. 😂

daz figured that sh-t out quick

Everytime I watch and the mustache man's disgusted look reaction to Archie's joke, cracks me up😄

Very, very good comedy show. In my opinion it was just one of my favorites. Please if you can, if you will could you play "Bunker's and The "Swingers " and "Archie at the Unemployment Office" and "Archie defends his Maid" and "Maude arrives" and "Lionel's Engagement" and "Archie unknowingly saved the life of a female impersonator", and "Archie getting mugged". There are very many more than that but for now, check these out and of course "when Archie goes to jail". And if course when Mike meets the Bunker's. Thank you very, very much. Have a Blessed Day.

He even wore the Yamaha (as he would call it)! 😂

Stretch (in previous episodes) was played by actor, James Cromwell.

Archie is the GOAT. Him and Al Bundy.

All in the Family which was created by Norman Lear it was also groundbreaking for American sitcoms. Sitcoms wouldn’t touch subjects like they did on All in the Family. It was definitely groundbreaking. First season was 1971. Rob Reiner who played his meathead son-in-law is the son of TV legend Carl Reiner who created the Dick Van Dyke show which was essentially his life as a TV comedy writer.

Sammy Davis Jr vs Archie....so awesome

"If you're gonna have a change of life, you gotta do it RIGHT NOW!"

Oddly enough, Norman Lear, the creator of All In The Family, basically americanized the British TV show Till Death To Us Part. Alf Garnett makes Archie Bunker look like a hippie.

Wild that Norman Lear (100 years old) the producer of this show, is still around and so is Rob Reiner (who plays the son-in-law here) became a big-time director/producer. His hit movies: Misery, When Harry Met Sally, the American President and the Princess Bride.

Archie...he make you laugh, cry, get angry...so much emotions. Caroll O'Connor was a special one indeed. Not many can win an Emmy Award for TV best actor in a comedy show and later for a drama (In the Heat of the Night).

Norman Lear's series is probably the most important situation comedy in U. S. television history, after I Love Lucy. A whole range of topics which weren't explored before by network television were the subjects of episodes--racism, religious belief, marital infidelity, sex, transvestism, and more. Always hilariously. Archie Bunker, as brilliantly portrayed by Carroll O' Connor, was a type who had not been depicted in detail before, although everyone knew somebody like him. Jean Stapleton matched him as wife Edith. She eventually grew tired of the role, and left; the episode where Archie reacts to her death is very moving. Several sequels and spinoff series followed.

I loved this show growing up. It was a great show. If you were a fan this was a very touching scene because Stretch Cunningham was Archie‘s goofball friend from work but he set Archie Straight a few times also. Great video. Thanks guys.

‘All in the Family’ Was Based on Britain’s ‘Till Death Us Do Part’

For some reason, the episode that sticks in my memory the most is the one where Archie and Meathead debated whether to put socks on first and then shoes, or sock shoe sock shoe. A classic!

Edith goes through menopause. Archie tries his best to deal with her, but reaches his limit. "I know all about yer women's troubles, Edith, but when I had the hernia that time, I didn't make YOU wear the truss!"

I wouldn't say racist either, ignorance and a bigot that had beliefs he was taught growing up. Deep down he had a good heart but not a good vocabulary.

To daughter Gloria: "If we was afraid of sex, little girl, YOU wouldn't be here".

I really hate it went people label Archie as racist or bigoted or prejudiced because Norman Lear who wrote "All in the Family" intended for Mike (Meathead) the ultra liberal to be the most beloved character but the audience immediately despised Mike the ultra liberal and loved Archie and they certainly didnt love him because he was racist, bigoted or prejudiced. To understand Archie, you have to understand a few things. 1) he was a product of the depression, massive unemployment, poverty, hunger, homelessness, dustbowl when the great midwestern wheat fields turned to desert, soup lines, broken families who couldnt take the hardship....then they went from the depression right into WW2. People like Archie didnt get much of a childhood or an education or a life. People in Archies generation were greatful for WW2 because it meant food, housing and a salary. 2) the other thing to remember was that the great years of immigration from the 1870s to the 1920s, people settled into ethnic/religious/racial neighborhoods so stereotypes were normal and they were not a sign of hatred. You could say that Archie represented the working class...the everyman...which was fine in his day but then by the 1970s Archie and so many of his generation were politically incorrect. 3) Archies generation that had no childhood...and went from the depression to WW2...came home...they saw all the evils of the world and were naive to it but they came home and they did their very best to return a sense of normalcy to their daily life....and they earned it...the hard way. However, their children who grew up in that normalcy and stability that their parents worked so hard to build and rejected it, spit on it, held it in contempt...the normalcy their parents valued was a sign to the next generation of enjoying the fruits of social injustice which was wholey unfair and misunderstood. When you watch the show....yes its funny...but you see how the past in deeply ingrained into each generation.

Being Jewish is hard not so much for the religion but because of the tribes and the beliefs of the jewish tribes. For instance, lets take 1930s Nazi (National Socialists) Germany. The Jews were not targeted because of Judaism. Jews were targeted because so many of them were Communists and Marxists and Bolsheviks. Dont forget the Bolsheviks of 1917 went on a spree of mass murder killing the czarist monarchy, the aristocracy, the intellectuals, the owners of capital...then murdering up to 30+ million Russians in mass starvation in the 1920s and another 30+ million Ukrainians in mass starvation in the 1930s while continuing the rampage of mass murder as one by one Eastern European Communist coups took over country after country. Hitler and the Nazis were the choice of the Germans or the German leaders but they felt they had no choice. It was only a matter of time before the communists came for Germany...in fact...the communist anarchist unionizers were already setting the foundations of a communist coup. Germans knew after WW1 that their former enemies Britain, US and France would not defend Germany against Russia. The choice was stark. Black and White. Either prepare to surrender to Stalin's Soviet Union or remilitarize Germany and prepare to defend Germany...and a strong authoritarian leader would be needed to break the Versaille Treaty and refinance the banks, rebuild the economy, remilitarize the countries defenses. Why did Hitler attack German Jews? Well because the defended the communists who were largely jewish....and because the jews used their money, power and position to oppose Hitler rebuilding Germany. German Jews were seen as being allied with Russian and Eastern European Communists which they were. YOU COULD SAY THAT IF THE JEWS DID NOT BRING COMMUNISM TO RUSSIA AND EASTERN EUROPE...ALL WITH THE ASSOCIATED COUPS, MASS STARVATION AND MASS MURDER THEN THERE WOULD HAVE BEEN NO NEED TO ENTRUST HITLER WITH THE FULL POWER OF THE GOVT. IN EFFECT, THE JEWS DID IT TO THEMSELVES. IN FACT, GO THRU HISTORY...AND EVER EXPULSION...GOING BACK TO ACIENT ROME BRINGING THE RATH OF HADRIAN DOWN ON JEWS...GOING BACK TO ANCIENT EGYPT BRINGING THE RATH OF RAMSES ON THE JEWS. The jews will tell you its blind anti-semetism. Anti-semetism is unjustified and comes out of thin air. The reality thru history is that Jews have subverted, exploited, spied, betrayed, etc anything and everything that served their own interests....and history shows...eventually the tolerance wears out and people get fed up and there is a backlash and the backlash is justified and each time the jews brought it down upon their own heads. ITS HARD BECAUSE WHEN THE BACKLASH COMES...THE GOOD JEWS...OFTEN TAKE THE BRUNT OF THE BACKLASH...WHILE THE RICH JEWS OFTEN MANAGE TO ESCAPE OR INSULATE THEMSELVES.

This show was the American version of Til Death do us Part. Like Sanford and Son was the American version of Steptoe and Son

It could always make you laugh and cry. One of the most genius shows in tv

The US nostalgia channel MeTV airs a two-hour block of "All in the Family" episodes on Sunday evenings. Currently airing is the two-part episode chronicling Archie's grandson Joey Stivic's birth, and I had completely forgotten the critical subplot involving Archie's appearing in blackface in a Minstrel show when daughter Gloria goes into labor. Assuming their importance in the series chronology outweighed then momentary retro-outrage that resulted in a completely innocuous episode of "The Golden Girls" being pulled from syndication due to a scene where in which Dorothy has just been introduced to her son's black prospective mother-in-law when Blanche and Rose walk in wearing mud beauty masks and "havoc ensues."

A Jewish guy named Jerome "Stretch" Cunningham hahaha

Absolutely brilliant. He told Jewish (and other bigoted) jokes with one of his closest friends for years, but by the time he finds out the guy is Jewish, it's too late and he can never apologize. Archie fed into a lot of stereotypes about Jews and this shows the cognitive dissonance when he realizes that a friend he loved was Jewish and didn't any of the stereotypes. A powerful lesson for Archie and it hopefully makes the audience think too.

Lionel Jefferson and his parents, who are African-American, move in next door to the Bunkers.

All in the Family was based on a British show.Til Death Do Us Part.

My kids have asked how bad the racism was in the 80’s. We tell them it was less than it is now. Part of that was because of shows like AITF. It exposed you to different and sometimes problematic opinions, but we could discuss them and laugh about them. Today you can’t even have the conversations that need to be had. My daughter (a very woke 16 yo), doesn’t understand why they said the things they said or used the words they used. I think her and a lot of her generation don’t believe that we need to address and discuss the difficult topics to solve them. And if humor can get people to that place, that’s a good thing. Instead it’s, “I’m right, your wrong and that’s it, end of conversation”. As I get older, it’s shocking to me that Archie and Edith were both 53 in this episode (both the characters and the actors). Episodes to react to: Sammy Davis, Jr., Lionel’s Engagement Party, and Cousin Maude’s Visit.

This episode was interesting. One of the things Archie was known for was being openly antisemitic and he had no idea that his best friend at work for many years was Jewish. The crowd was pushing back because the character of Archie was one of very little refinement and rough around the edges. It would be like asking a Cockney hustler to fill in for the King at a formal event.

I believe this show was based on Till Death to Us Part. It used to be in the credits.

Correction! Meant to say racism and intolerance. (not ignorance, though both qualify) Great show. I still get it where I live and love it still. And I'm so old I saw them when they were first broadcast. With an antenna on the roof and a black and white tv!

Yea I agree Billy94 ; it had its moments ... Another was when they wrapped up ' Edith's ' role ... The actress decided not to come back ( retire ) so they wrote her death into the storyline ... Him coping with that was another major emotional moment in the show .
