That was the beginning of Edith standing up for herself. That was a great episode

[@T1000skynetforever]

Nah, Archie is the brains of this operation.

[@lilajagears8317]

That's when the show started to lose its edge.

[@obscurelyvague]

"@mstewart61" The way Edith was presented in following episodes this was not really the first time she stood up for herself , only in the way that Mike and Gloria set her up to do it with "no gunny sacking" or "hitting below the belt" which are concepts that Edith did not grow up with. There was once an episode in which Edith told Gloria and Mike about how she told Archie off when Gloria was still a baby. It was when Archie was gambling and/or drinking too much early in their marriage and Edith said she dressed Gloria up and told Archie she would take Gloria and leave if he does not get on the right track

[@obscurelyvague]

@@lilajagears8317 The show lasted several years after this one episode so there were many years of edgeless episodes then.

@@wallacepemberton932 yikes i kinda didn’t like this. there’s a difference between not wanting someone in your home because of valid reasons (animosity toward spouse/you, mistreating the kids, etc.) and just simply not liking someone, especially if it’s your spouse’s family. there shouldn’t ever be a “king”, marriage and home should be a group effort between both spouses, literally and figuratively.

[@TruthHoles]

I agree, although at least here she had Edith's best interests at heart. That wasn't always the case. One of the few complaints I have about "All in the Family" is the evolvement of the Gloria character. At the start of the series, she was a young, somewhat giddy girl, who grew to become a strong, informed woman. But with the episode "The Battle of the Month" at the end of the third season (in which Gloria actually accuses Edith of being a "nothing"), she became increasingly obnoxious and abusive. I find some of the episodes of season six to be almost unwatchable, because Gloria is downright nasty to Mike during her pregnancy. Sure, Archie could be nasty, but at least he was funny. Gloria was not.

[@Wolfmanluv]

@@TruthHoles yeah i hate the Gloria pregnancy episodes, i undestand her hormones were making her cranky but that is no excuse for her nasty behavior
