Gloria DATED A Married Man?! (ft. Sally Struthers) | All In The Family

[@RoseRedd-k4b]

"The only man who stays away to better themselves is a pimp or a mugger or Dracula" I laughed so hard at that.

[@Deephouse_Gent66]

SAME! LOL!

[@robertmorrisey7140]

😂 yeah that was classic 😂😊

[@mattslupek7988]

I had to pause the video to laugh at that!

[@ivanmolina5203]

Gloria nearly gave us the last episode of All in the Family. Their reaction to the news was priceless.

[@robertcampain612]

The Bible says: “Blessed are the peacemakers.” Edith Bunker was a peacemaker. She was may favorite character on this show.

[@torridd]

She's probably the "best" person in sitcom history. Pure and chaste.

[@Blitzkrieg1976]

Definitely ❤

[@sashachitownvillegas6850]

absolutely

[@tammywebb1289]

I like Edith, too, but she can be VERY chatty on the show

[@reezdog]

I was sad when her character died. 😢

[@patrickplummer1027]

"Whoa ho ho speaks for itself" 😂

[@joyceadair3003]

I never could stand Gloria! She was a spoiled brat.

[@alexanderestrada2499]

Edith: Archie, your blood pressure. Archie: Let it burst all over the walls and on the ceiling and on the floor here!!! LOL

[@nassauguy48]

Let it BOIST.

[@braunshugar1]

Sally Struthers was so wonderful in this. Her character was so believable to me I could actually see her Gloria as the product of Edith and Archie Bunker. She had enough of BOTH of them to be their daughter.

[@TheHelper-l9m]

Beautiful Sally Struthers!

[@russellgrimes3491]

She was barely passable as a beauty and it was short lived.

[@donreid6399]

She was definitely a cutie. I was 8 years-old when I first began watching and had SUCH a crush on her! 🙂

Edith was a saint how she brought peace and stood up for herself despite Archie calling her dingbat

[@nancygibson4380]

Archie was a narcissist.

[@jaymike3302]

Archie was practically a saint for being attracted to her. And she really was a dingbat.

[@mbyrd6713]

I wish Norman would’ve made Archie look at his own past behaviors before he judged anyone else’s. The fainting spell was hilarious though 😂

[@nassauguy48]

Lear was an interesting and often a very fair minded guy. He more often depicted Archie in a positive light and Mike in a negative one. In the end, Archie was the better husband and father.

[@nsnopper]

I was fortunate to be around when this first aired. 🎶Those were the days.🎶

[@Denise22365]

One of my favorite episodes.

[@jessicastiner2123]

Raise your hands if you like that fainting spell scene 🙋🙋🙋🙋

[@KennedyMusicTheories]

I was Weeeeeaaakkkk 😂😂😂😂

[@AdrianneFluet]

Yes, she made a big mistake. She of just talk to her husband about her feelings instead of screwing around

[@equine2020]

Yes. Immature people go outside their marriage. You now live in a partnership. Problems are worked out. If you can't communicate, you lack a strong union. Affairs screw up lives.

[@Ladywolf2263]

Ya both are screwed up in the head.

[@Jotinko]

Exactly. If you need to “let out some tension” use your hand.

[@LoriliaKoester]

Oh that poor edith bunker pass out. Haha

[@wesm6121]

(Edith) "Archie, your blood pressure" (Archie) "Let it Burst all over the walls celing and the floor here!!!" xDDDD i died

[@alexanderestrada2499]

Archie sure loves to jump to conclusions. Just because a man and a woman are separated doesn’t mean he was cheating on her.

[@nassauguy48]

Well, Archie probably remembered his brief and near harmful fling with the waitress.

[@nassauguy48]

Mike and Gloria were never right for each other. Gloria was still Archie's daughter, and while she was not conservative like him, she allowed Mike to inculcate her with all those left wing views with which she never really felt comfortable. In the end, they cheated on each other, Mike for good by running off to a commune with one of his students. The man simply hated work and responsibility, and he probably lazed off at the commune while letting all the others do the chores.

[@ferox965]

LOL

[@jennifersteffan2229]

100% correct well said

[@DeeDeeKarol]

Archie was always right about him 🤷🏽‍♀️

[@OneWayDesigns]

You're definitely right, I never cared for Mike. Gloria wasn't "grown enough" to marry when she did. I remember the episode when he proposed, it's like he did so bc she was saving herself for marriage. Mike was a lazy moocher. He definitely could have helped Archie when he was in school.

[@DeeDeeKarol]

@ yes he really was.

[@billystephens9255]

Why can't they make shows like this anymore it's such a shame these were great shows.

[@225gurl2]

Gloria "Daddy There is Nothing Wrong About a Man and a Woman Seeing Each Other" Archie who proceeds to lose it "Seeing Each Other!!!!...😂😂

[@Jotinko]

Archie did the same thing with the waitress that one time.

[@u.s.m.c.fewproudthemarines2987]

😂😂 classic AITF

[@RoseRedd-k4b]

Edith fainting was soooo extra, I mean come on.

[@larrytxeast8756]

I applaud Archie here for holding Gloria accountable for her fooling around. This whole "be nice" thing Edith wants to do just white washes over wrongdoings pretending like everything's ok.

[@nassauguy48]

True. In the Thanksgiving reunion episode of "Archie Bunker's Place", it was clear that Mike and Gloria had not really gotten over the wounds. That was shortly before Edith died, then they split up right afterward.

[@toptenguy1]

If you think about it, it's actually INCREDIBLE that Archie stood next to Mike for a full minute, without even trying to punch him (Knowing he would probably be punched back, but let's be real, he would still try! ) He gave him the benefit of the doubt!

[@Driven2Beers]

Mike was too good for her!

[@nassauguy48]

No, in the end, he left her AND Joey high and dry. He ran off to a commune to be with one of his students. Since he had no job, was he even paying child support?

[@Driven2Beers]

@@nassauguy48 Hey, I'm just paraphrasing a quote from Archie (who BTW is _always_ right, according to many commenters here).

[@Ginger-s1z]

This show jumped the the shark when the Jeffersons moved away

[@lnicole2504]

I don't think that's true at all. There were plenty of relevant storylines. I think it weakened when Mike and Gloria moved away, but Stephanie's character revitalized it a bit.

[@nassauguy48]

@@lnicole2504 I agree. The Jeffersons did not even appear in half or even more of the episodes. As for Stephanie, I do not agree with those who criticize her character. She added a lot to the show, as did Billie in "Archie Bunker's Place".

[@a.b.sproductionsllc]

I actually feel as if AITF never Jumped The Shark. I think they had some bad episodes but overall even with less of Mike and Gloria it was still funny.

[@PopRockRevival]

"he's married too!" *two wrongs don't make a right*

[@GothGuy885]

LOL i thought it was going to come out that when mike was out at night, Gloria's friend was in a drawer. but I don't think they would have even intimated that back then, even in the context o this show.

[@frankbridges2171]

All in the Family was a product of its time. I believe it would be difficult to revive.

[@dianeamaral8151]

I would never cheat if i would have been lucky enough to get married, to me being married is a gift from god when god brings someone into your l I'm life to share your life with thats a gift, better than being single I'm single I put up with it I don't have a choice some people are blessed but I'm not. I except it.❤

[@annstillwell730]

Same here my parents were hippies and stayed married till my mom died so not everyone from that era had a bad marriage. They were married 29 years. He's been married to his second wife almost 20 years. Of course my dad was super liberal on politics but very traditional on morals of marriage and commitment even when it went against the times.

[@Jotinko]

I’m a guy who never married yet and I agree. Talk to your partner about the problem not break that bond by cheating.

[@dianeamaral8151]

@@Jotinko I agree with you 💯

[@nassauguy48]

Nearly all of the time, I would agree. But there are those marriages that feature emotional and/or physical abuse and other problems that are pretty much irreversible. At that point, yes, divorce is the solution, but while they are waiting, there are people in need of tender companionship.

[@dianeamaral8151]

@@nassauguy48 Yes this is true I got put of a abusive relationship a few years ago and I've never looked back. I'm happy living alone, it's better to be alone thank to be with a man than hits you. I'm much happier living alone.

[@sassyd8738]

Kudos to either for stepping in because I surely did not like the breakup Mike was so wrong to say he hated the first 5 years of their marriage. So you basically hit below the belt Mr stivic if it was not for her parents money you would not have graduated dearie. sad she cheated is not the way but to all find out in the end you basically used her, used her parents your marriage and then leave do not blame Gloria for taking yall son and leaving Edith help bought you some time to get it together but we all know how that went. "What a User.

[@nassauguy48]

Mike was a lazy and ungrateful narcissist who allowed his crazy leftist politics to cloud his judgment of those who thought differently from him.

[@miamimercenary9623]

It’s almost like she expected to be something other than a stay at home mom. Clearly she knew that was her role before they moved to California. And whatever Mike was doing, having an affair ain’t the answer to solve it. Gloria really got a lot of passes in this show for being a goofball

[@tomdalfonzo9959]

Wouldn't the news of Mike and Gloria separating and considering a divorce be the greatest thing that Archie Bunker could ever want to hear?

[@2girlbmuffydcassidy]

[@jimhanty8149]

Now that was a show that poked fun fairly…. Lord bless ole Al and the family…and buck…and Marcy the chicken…🐔

[@nsnopper]

Without All in the Family, there might not have been a Married with Children. Prior to this, you had Ozzie and Harriet, Father Knows Best, Leave it to Beaver, Bewitched . . . innocuous programs that did not acknowledge what was happening in the world outside the film studio. Producer Norman Lear grabbed the audience by the lapels and loaded up the episodes with current events: Watergate, Gay Rights, Women’s Liberation, the Sexual Revolution, Racism, the Vietnam War (US involvement continued until 1975) . . . Plus, adding sound effects like a toilet flushing - it had never been done. If the humour falls flat for you, well, it falls flat. But the outrageous humour on TV began with these four characters.

[@jimhanty8149]

All of the problems today in society started with this type crap on tv…

[@debra2700]

Everything people did wrong on this show was called out for being wrong unlike the "crap" that's on today. Reality shows that turn little boys into little girls. Real housewives that are nothing but gold digging whores. You're way off base on your assessment of this show.
