Archie (Carroll O'Connor) gets scolded by the doctor for his lack of understanding of Edith's (Jean Stapleton) poor health.

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Archie took refuge in his long-suffering wife, Edith, who tries her best to understand Archie's conservative ways and outdated beliefs.

Carroll O’Conner was an actor’s actor. He was truly one of the finest actors of American stage and screen. He never held back from playing the flawed Everyman warts and all, but also with respect for Archies’s integrity, his hard work, his devotion to family. O’Connor played Archie with awareness and empathy of his being a product of his time, his upbringing, and his surroundings. He honored Archie’s capacity for inner growth, sometimes in spite of himself. In partnership with the writers, Mr. O’Connor’s subtle portrayal of that sea change was utterly natural. He was a master.

I disagree. I thought that Archie Bunker's Place showed the evolution of Archie from who he was, a bombastic, ignorant, verbally abusive jerk, who was enabled by Edith, to someone who had to navigate life's complexities by himself, with people around him who didn't put up with those opinions. He had to raise a child, who was Jewish, whereas Edith had done all the childcare, and only in ABP did he have Stephie's Jewishness affect his life, by having to stand up against temple vandalism, and had to deal with the realities of a growing child, on his own. He had a black housekeeper who was not a servant, he had to deal with Murray, and with Veronica's alcoholism, and having employees with different life paths.

What some people didn't understood was that Archie was crazy about Edith, and when she passed away his whole world came tumbling down, but he knew that he had to be there for Stephanie, and he was. Yes, Archie was a diamond in the rough, but his diamond showed through many times. Michael use to like to think that Archie wasn't intelligent, but Archie was smarter than people gave him credit for. He was also a devoted Daddy to Gloria, and at times I wish that Archie had back handed her for being disrespectful, and he loved his grandson Joey with all his heart, and the scene where he takes it upon himself to baptize Joey, because Michael was against it, and Gloria was following Michael, brought tears to my eyes, and down my cheeks. Archie was a product of his time, and he didn't have a very happy childhood as you get to know the character, so he hid behind a tough exterior, but he really wasn't a bad person. He also didn't take anything off of anyone too, and he was brutally honest, and some people didn't like that. I was raised by a man sorta like the Archie character and I called him Daddy, and behind that gruff, rough, tough exterior, was the sweetest, kindest, most gentlest man you'd ever hope to meet.

What's interesting is, for the longest time, I thought this was the precursor to her death. I always assumed that the first episode of Archies Place is that episode wheres she's passed. (I had seen both these episodes when they were actually broadcast on TV. I was a little kid of course). About a year ago, I found all the episodes of Archie's Place on cable TV. Turns out, Edith actually is in the entire first season of Archies place. The episode you find out she died was the first show of season two of Archies place. So actually if you go by the timeline. she lives for another year or so after this.

[@retroguy9494]

Besides, phlebitis is basically a blood clot in the leg which breaks loose and travels to the lungs causing an embolism which kills you. Edith actually died of a stroke she suffered in her sleep. A stroke is the brain, not the lungs.

My Dad was so much like Archie! Just not as outspoken. Shared his name too, and my Mom's name was Edyth. I miss them both ... all

[@HatfieldFilms]

I grew up with this show, it's part of my life memories. It'll always be a part of my life.

[@teamcougars]

I’m sorry, but to me he will always be the general in Kelly’s Heroes. “Get me my uniforrrrrrrrm!” 😂😂😂

And Colonel Sanders! "Prepare for ludicrous speed!" "Prepare, prepare, why do we always prepare?!"

[@jonebert7716]

U can see it in archies face that he was shell shocked about it if there was any one person that he knew that could get threw anything it was edith and when he heard that it rly hit home for him....

[@DaddyLovesKatie]

Caroll O'Connor deserved an emmy for ediths death scene

[@MarkBerlin]

My Grandmother and Grandfather would argue with each other off and on, never saw them kiss or hug, but it broke my Granfathers heart when she died.

[@Jet-xk7ss]

These two actors were amazing.

[@memonk11]

After all of these years I only just now noticed that the little girl that was the only person Archie allowed to sit in his chair.

[@Crown149]

My dad’s favorite show. May he Rest in peace💙

[@Woodstockneverhappened]

The song at the beginning with Archie and Edith set the stage for the whole show

[@jerryallen1768]

I miss that time back there. Seems so far away. Time just slips away and is forgotten. Music, TV, and movies now just don't have that spark to me. Sure miss those days. Think about that time and remember my parents and wish I could go back.

Jean Stapleton refused to do a death scene for the show when she left
