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Archie took refuge in his long-suffering wife, Edith, who tries her best to understand Archie's conservative ways and outdated beliefs.

What always tickled me was that from what I read, they were really good friends in real life.

[@markmiller3713]

One thing I've noticed is that when Edith or Louise address the other family, it's either, "Mr. Bunker or Mrs. Bunker", or "Mr. Jefferson or Mrs. Jefferson", but when Archie and George talk, it's just "Bunker or Jefferson."

[@justmeiniowa]

Louise always says Archie and Edith. Edith says Louise and Mr. Jefferson. Archie says Jefferson and Mrs. J or Louise. George says Bunker and Edith but sometimes calls her Mrs. Bunker.

[@fan.80s_90s]

$20 in 1974 was really huge, today with inflation it's worth $120.

[@jerrscott6373]

And in a few more years (like 6), it will be worth 0ver $175 if the inflation rate continues at the current rate and the current administration is still at the helms.

[@fan.80s_90s]

@@jerrscott6373 guess you have forgotten that inflation was big even during Nixon, Reagan and Bush Senior administration. If you think deflation is a solution to America's problem then good luck because deflation is never a solution and deflation will make America into a great depression era.

[@erichanson426]

He is a little better than Archie. During The Jeffersons run, he admitted a few times, where he was wrong. While he did make comments, he was, even at certain times, nice to his white neighbors. I said certain times, where Archie was never kind to other races. Let's face it, he had a lot of patience towards Mr. Bentley who was always ringing their bell. I would have felt like slamming the door on a few times, and I am white. Between the two, being white, I will choose George over Archie any day.
