The idea for the show came about because family sitcoms always had happy families. Happy families are real but there are many families that come from other situations. The show was actually called the Anti Cosby Show while it was in development. The setup is that Al and Peg were the popular kids in school. Al was a football player and often reminisces about the game where he made four touchdowns. She gets pregnant, they get married, and they discover that life in the real world is not high school. The Thing that makes this show work is that no matter how much they fight with each other, they do love each other and stick together against outside forces.

Yes, they were trying to make a show about how families really are… crude and dysfunctional. It shocked alot of people when it first came out because they weren’t use to seeing that kind of sitcom about a family

The show was originally written based off of the standup of Roseanne Barr and Sam Kinison. They were even offered the roles of Peg and Al but thankfully turned them down. It may have been a good show with them but this version was great.

@@hshaughnessy17 really? Very interesting. Well at least Rosanne still got her own show
Yes he hates his family with words, but he dose everything for them in action. That is the underlying message of AL bundy!! If you watch the show.
I remember seeing an interview with Kathey Sagal where she answers the question, "Why does Peggy always asks Al for sex?" She said it's because Al is really, REALLY good at it.

Zero, anyone could get the smoke lol.
The original title of the show was going to be "Not The Cosby". It was the anti-Cosby show.
These early season clips reminded me of how much more grounded MWC was in it's early seasons compared the later ones, when it got more silly and outrageous. These early season clips are very funny in their own way.
You forgot that Al never cheats even when given the chance even though he always acts like he wants to leave her or wishes her dead etc.
This was my Dad's fav tv show. I loved it too😊

That scene where Peg shouts "get out!!" To Tiffany is almost a Lil glimpse into her portrayal of Gemma in Son's of Anarcy😂😂
I will continue with my campaign for a Little Rascals reaction. The original black and whites not the bogus remade version. Fly My Kite, The Pooch or Pay as You Exit is a good start. Fish Hooky is an interesting one as it contains four generations of the Rascals.

Great idea, but the originals have some racist comments in them. The shorts would show how society used to be.
12:49 He forgot his wallet and sent the kids to get it, but they never came back, so they tried to escape 🤣🤣
This show was my childhood. I loved it growing up. Lol
Ed O'Neil got his start before show biz as a professional football player and was on the Pittsburgh Steelers roster back in the 70s for a season and a half.

Also, the role of Al Bundy kind of fell in his lap. He wasn’t trying to get it
You missed the best part of the scene where Al turned down the hot blonde then went home. Peg is waiting for him back home and before she can give him the what for he pulls a blonde wig out of a bag says, "Put this on!" lifts her up and runs up the stairs with her LMAO
Yes!! I've been waiting for this!
Funny enough the actor who played Al Bundy, Ed O'Neill, mentioned how one of the reasons that he got the part was because most of the people going for the role were basically treating the character as if it was Archie Bunker whereas he did something different.

I saw that interview and he said he saw the character of AL as his uncle who had just "resigned in life". The guy who thought of him for the role saw him in a performance of Mice and Men

Al views women as sex objects. Archie had a different type of misogynistic view of women as housecleaners, cooks and cleaning clothes.
Thank you for showing more than just the best insults montage going around. This shows the context of the whole show. It’s working title was “Not the Cosbys” because the Cosby Show was the icon of family sitcoms until that point. You had Family Ties and even Silver Spoons which was written by the creators of this show. This had been a cartoonish breakaway.
Married With Children, a show way head of its time.
Most of the scenes you watched are from the first season. I usually never like the first season of even my favorite shows. This show got much better as it went along, and didn't focus so much on Al berating Peggy...they got into a lot of other silly things that made it funnier. Like a Labor Day weekend season opener, they were leaving town for the holiday weekend but get stuck on the freeway for the entire episode!
As some of us look down at Married With Children and The Simpsons, remember that these two shows were the primary cash flow series for Fox TV at its startup, and they made things like Fox News, Hannity, Carlson, and so forth possible. MWC was on for over 10 years.
That show is dearly missed. I was watching it from when it started, until the series finale. He definitely was not like Archie Bunker in my opinion, Al had black friends, never made any racist jokes. A black man was co creator of MWC .

He viewed women as sex objects. Archie viewed women for domestic purposes
There was a time when you couldn’t even say ‘damn’ on TV. Richard Pryor’s era ( late 70’s onwards) and style of comedy changed that.
Actually, that intro was top shelf stuff and I loved it. Keep it going brutha from another mutha
You guys probably don't know how many times you have seen Katey Sagal Who played Peg Bundy. She was on The Mary Tyler Moore show the year before Married with Children. SHe was also Leela in Futurama a cartoon show that was on Comedy Central, she was also on 8 Simple Rules that got cancelled when John Ritter died. After that she did Sons of Anarchy and she is currently on The Conners as Dan's love interest. When they brought back Roseanne and she went off the deep end they renamed it The Conners and brought in Katey to replace Roseanne. Fun Fact Ed O'Neill was really a football player for Youngstown College and then went to the training camp of the Pittsburgh Steelers with Mean Joe Green and LC Greenwood when Chuck Noll was the coach.
Al for president
Bud: "You don't tell dad I skipped school, and I won't tell him about the grass stains on the back of your blouse."
The show was always considered crass insult comedy. The humor of All in the Family was character-driven and situational. Married with Children has a lot of really funny tasteless one-liners.
Consider viewing MWC Season 3 / Episode 1. While there are many instances, the character of “Al Bundy” is explained in his exchange with the librarian. You can watch the whole episode as it has a childhood flashback.
Katy Segal's father was Boris Sagal who produced The Man From U.N.C.L.E. spy series in the 60s. Katy starred in "Sons of Anarchy." She also has two twin sisters who had their own comedy show & one appeared as a Russian who dated Jerry in the Seinfeld Show. Liz Sagal (one of the twins) produced "Sons of Anarchy."
I believe the show was meant to be the anti-"Leave It to Beaver" shows of the 50's.
One of the best!
You will enjoy the Archie episode where Edith is going through menopause. Archie will surprise you in what he says to Edith when she tells him she was afraid she could, "lose her looks".
When Fox was new, it was extremely difficult to break through over the established Big 3 of ABC, CBS and NBC. It was pre-cable, so it was difficult even getting on the air in some markets. So they had to be edgy to even get noticed. The protests against this show was one of the best things that ever happened to them.
Mr bundy played 5 seasons with the steelers as a linebacker and had a short stint with the packers in 1980 believe it or not , actually true hes coached too
Al Bundy was played by Ed O'Neill...he was so great lolol
I laughed so hard at the beach shot when Al and Peg were looking at the hotter younger people.
There are far better Al Bundy compilations than this one. The compilation with the shoe store customers are sooo damn hilarious.
Best description of this type of comedy is "live action cartoon." Another great example would be Malcolm in The Middle.
Love these!!!
More clips from the shoe store or with Marcy, please.
You guys need to review Al Bundy's Most Savage Moments!!!!!!!
New subscriber here. I enjoy ur reactions. Y'all's insights r awesome.
Katy Segal played Jemma in Sons of Anarchy.
Its what I call getting down to the nitty gritty!
You need to watch the full episodes there is sooo much more than these clips. The Santa scene was so much more and it actually had a warning before the show started. The restaurant clip was another good episode. MWC was an original Fox show.
All your mothers hated this show? Well they sound like they need a sense of humor. I grew up on this show. It was funny then and it's still funny. And AL is the best part of the show!
The characters , and the basis of the show changes after the first season .....in the first season , for example , Peg actually cooked .... In the second season on .....Peg didn't know what a microwave was , how to operate the oven , and never a thing in the fridge .

3:00 this late 80's 90's.
The anti Cosby show. This along with the Simpson In living color put Fox on the map
Floozy. That’s a oldie but goody. I was amused the this term was used by anyone in this group. I would have used a different term.

@tmayofour The show got better with each season, plus these clips can be confusing as they don't tell what the situation is, the viewer has to figure it out (like the restaurant scene, they can't pay their bill).
You guys really need to watch All In The Family when Edith dies. Carol O’Conner was astounding.
Check out the movie: Trains, Planes and Automobiles! That’s with Steve Martin and John Candy.
Now this needs to be followed up with a Modern Family reaction 😂
I think that homeless girl was Vanna White.
3:20 they left out the best part lol he goes and buys a blonde wig and tells Peg to put it on and get in bed haha Edit: actually every part they showed they left out the best part.
inthink that was jason bateman on santas lap
These clips were ok, but there are definitely WAY more funny clips in compilations out there. Most of the ones where he is in the shoe store are the funniest.
Archie Bunker and Al Bundy? Apples and oranges!
What's the joke with Felipe? He is the 2nd most attractive guy on the show?
You guys have to do "The Best Of Randy Marsh".
you should check out some episodes of "Mama's Family" as well!!
Al bundy was the shit.,😆😆😂
If you haven’t already check out Archie Bunker and his s-I-L in an argument about shoes and socks.
Slightly bigoted? God I hate the way people are now. You can't just take jokes as jokes, it has to be "slightly bigoted." This show is the Anti-Sitcom. Every sitcom of the 80s-90s era were the perfect family, so they took that and flipped it on it's head. That's why it was so genius, along with the amazing acting of Ed O'Neil and Katey Sagal. It doesn't hurt that they had Christina Applegate in there as well, who played the perfect beautiful dumb bimbo character.
You guys should react married with children. Al Bundy fights, it's hilarious and AL Bundy funny or best moments.
The chick in the back and to the walking tattoo in the hat, do y'all know what the definition of misogynistic. "The hatred of women men". He didn't hate women and he wasn't a male chauvinist either. Stop throwing around words you don't understand. Al was disrespected by his family and not appreciated, but he was still loyal
play a longer clip of those shows
Tiffany=Vanna White
DT.. sounds like you need the Latency fixed with your Mic.. Also they didn't call it The Big 80s for nothin! Everything was pretty Over the Top..
Ed O' Neill (Al) & Amanda Bearse ( Marcy) behind the scenes did not get along later on in the seasons of the show. The 80s were great.. It was a time where you can say what you wanted & not worry or care if it was offensive. No cancel culture..People tried to get this show canceled & failed big time
Great reaction, Can y'all do All in the family when Archie gets into taking drugs
Nothing racist about this great show. Fat girl jokes, sure. Now I'm going to watch a Marathon of this on that gay channel Logo. Especially the episodes with Divine. Those were great.
Lol he had a gloomy outlook on his life. An appeared to not appreciate his family. But there were several episodes where they got into with someone or another family an they caught side by side. Lol it's like we r the only ones that can mess with us Bundys. Lol
Bagging on Felipe? His hair is on point, what how got? A hat smh.

Married with children is a show that validates the broken American family. I have more respect for the Bunkers Show. When this show came out about the Bundies? Just showed our decline. Nuff said. And the reaction to the bimbos / Your faces says it all.
There are way better highlights than these. Al is my hero.
Echoing
The jokes go all ways. He is portrayed as a loser as well. It’s funny how people only see the one side. Men and women are mocked equally.
I think the humor is great, don’t be so sensitive. That wasn’t real life.

Sorry but you’re wrong…. Bundy in no way is bigoted . One of his best friends is the guy who works with him at the shoe store. Biff, and the police officer. Also their group called “No Ma’am” they had plenty of black friends. Not sure where you’re getting bigoted. Maybe you need to look the word up. Ed O’Neil is from small town in Ohio and vet humble guy . I’m sure he made sure they would not write anything like that for him. Even in the Jeffersons after many seasons George became real good friends with the character Tom and told them no more hunky jokes . Al Bundy was not a bigot. Archie Bunker… yes. Al… no!

Even Archie's çharacter evolved and changed on the show.
The first four seasons were the best (especially the first two.) After that, it became exaggerated and not funny.
think most of the jokes were written by women
Some girls love creepy!Js.
These clips remind me of why I thought this show was so awful. And why I never laughed at it. But my brother loved it, so I endured.
Have to admit, I never liked the show. It was always too misogynistic for me, and as all of you pointed out, sent out the wrong message. But I do like Modern Family.
I loved married with children it’s still my favorite fuck your feelings type of Show.
How about Redd Foxx on ""Sanford and Son ’?
