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Archie took refuge in his long-suffering wife, Edith, who tries her best to understand Archie's conservative ways and outdated beliefs.

Norman Lear would've thought about it if Sanford wasn't on NBC

[@gbluesky4264]

Oh Yeah!😂

[@jlh4jc]

That would have been Fort Knox Comedy Gold! Add in Aunt Esther and Archie interacting and you really got something.

[@blockmasterscott]

OMG, this is a prime example of two first class actors, Sherman and Carroll showing their acting skills. First rate all the way!

[@kevini4295]

2:53 when Archie tells George to help him move the bed. The look on Louise's face. She knew exactly what Archie was doing.

[@marcschneider4845]

I am so impressed that Carroll O'Connor managed to make Archie, despite his appalling views, not a complete creep.That's tremendous acting.

[@diallo1347]

That's because he was a phenomenal actor. He was nothing like the character Archie in real life. My mom and I watched this show and In the Heat of the Night and Carrol had range.

[@beachboys3326]

​@@diallo1347 Yes, his acting range was great. Not all actors are capable of such varied roles.

[@dandycrow2821]

What do you mean by "complete creep"?

[@ahill9477]

I had the privilege of meeting him in person after a church service in Malibu when I was a student at Pepperdine….very nice, man of few words, smoking a cigar.

[@staceywillis5802]

Great acting and great writing

[@Deined]

2:48 I like how Louise started to smirk once she caught on to what Archie was up to. 😁

[@TruSoulDj]

“He’s gonna sing a Jewish song and die.” 😂😂 Gets me every time. I just wish they included Archie’s set up to the joke.

[@GoldFinger34]

I’m always amazed when I remember Sherman Hemsley (George Jefferson) was only 36 years old when this episode was recorded.

[@jjjjjjjjjjjjjjjj178]

Even crazier, they cast an actress 21 years older than him to play his wife!

[@Naza_44]

Oh look at this guy with his suitcase, what are you moving in too? 🤣🤣

Imagine Archie playing peace maker! 😄 What one will go through to get something, or in this case someone out of his house! 😄

[@TDI_CharlieBrown]

Archie may be ignorant, but he definitely knows right from wrong.

[@jamesorsby7553]

Leave it to Archie to say something even more stupid to Lionel than what George had already said to him. It worked in getting him to leave tho.

[@ShawnGattis]

This is one of the best episodes ever recorded. 😅 Incredible writers and cast.

[@ericharper7652]

Edith did you and Lionel have a man to man talk Archie yeah yeah Edith what happened Archie he made me his uncle 😆

[@jannathompson2262]

@@100016 You have to watch the whole episode. Archie was telling a story to Lionel and Lionel said something like "Oh wow my father never took the time to explain things like you do, can I call you Uncle Archie"? And then Archie's said " I think it's against the law" 😂

[@laserwizard2]

What a show. Nothing like that on TV now!

[@chipdamutt108]

Best sitcom ever.

[@dirtandsilkk]

These played their role perfectly. So much that they became typecast. I still feel bad for Carol after his lost son..both were great actors. We need talent like this again
