Married With Children’s Amanda Bearse & Ted McGinley at Niagara Falls Comic Con 2019

[@wny9521]

How cool are these two actors to be so humble and complimentary to their fellow actors and the audience. Class act!!

[@jdmcd3873]

Ted McGinley actually is a very underrated actor.

[@bmwforlife6951]

The reason is his role. He played the 'dumb' neighbor at MWC.

[@avoidtheattic2688]

He was hilarious! My favourite episode where his character was given more attention was the episode where it was revealed that he was a former CIA operative. That one was fun!

[@rgeiler7627]

I wouldn't say underrated, but he does seem like a lead character stuck in the side character role.

[@chipmunktubetop]

[@BobBaker-v9v]

Lol.. Put down the crack pipe

[@in5d]

Ted's funniest scene was in S11E7 (The Juggs Have Left the Building) when Jefferson and Marcy pretend to be Al and Peg. Jefferson's "Al Bundy" imitation was hilarious... he nailed it!!!

[@frankmid8515]

Illuminati I just saw that episode for the first time on a rerun last night on gettv

[@SiccDeville]

can i get a woah Jablonski?

[@diamond_278]

Season 8 no ma'am when they form the society and kidnap the host and when Marcy came to the show Jefferson was hiding between the chair and shouted yes hoping not to get caught

[@thabg007]

lol i just happened to watch that clip 10 minutes ago

[@fortynights1513]

That is one of my favorite scenes in the whole show.

[@victorysaber1608]

Ted McGinley just seems to get into such iconic roles.

[@sdsuman1]

Damn Teddy is ageless.

[@XanderBeckett1]

**ageful

[@essentialistlifestyle2048]

Yes 🙌🏻 He has an aged a bit

[@OS253]

He has good genetics.

[@christopherlee9184]

He's a Gemini they are young at heart.

[@atlboo98]

hes been handsome his whole life

[@BowHunter87]

The dummies they used for throwing or falling off things in Married With Children were extremely funny for some reason.

[@Vichedges]

Because they're so obviously fake. Those gag dummies have been used to get laughs forever, probably since the beginning of film. We used to use them in our homemade movies.

[@BobBaker-v9v]

It's because you were smoking crack then, and obviously now

[@ElectricSoulShow]

This is the greatest comedy show ever to come out of America - HANDS DOWN. Everyone loved this show - Men, Women - BLACK OR WHITE - IT IS LOVED IN MOST OTHER COUNTRIES ALL OVER THE WORLD. This was America's greatest-ever TV SITCOM.

[@Vichedges]

It's definitely one of them. I can watch it over and over and have been since the first episode premiered.

[@Nines_Rodriguez]

Ted McGinley is a Vampire. There is no other explanation.

[@hessu275]

As a big fan of Married With Children, I don't think you should compare Jefferson to Steve. David Garrison was excellent, but Ted McGinley did a good job as Jefferson. His character brought Marcy to life in a new way, with a more rentless sense of humor

[@Vichedges]

They both were good but I have to be honest, I prefer Jefferson. His weasel mooch character was great. So was the fact that Marci's name became "Marci Darcy".

[@archangelmusic13]

i dont understand why they replaced steve though.

[@76ONX]

@@archangelmusic13he missed Broadway and went back to theatre.

[@mikearchibald744]

How is it possible Ted McGinley still looks like he did in Revenge of teh Nerds?

[@achilles9448]

Ted Mcginley really seems like a really nice guy and I remember in one interview he was saying that even though he never got like huge leads in movies and TVs where he's the leading cast that he was still grateful and blessed to have a decent career and get jobs where it's enough for him to live off and that he appreciates that everyday and I thought that was one of the coolest interviews I ever seen because not many actors would even get close to having his career because there are hundreds of thousands actors and actresses who would love just to get a commercial or some kind of part in a movie even extra actors like the backup factors you seen in the back stories.... I'm a huge fan of Mary children and I remember when they let the character Steve Rhodes divorce Marcy and became a forest ranger and me and my family were thinking there is no way that they can replace the character Steve Rhodes and here comes Jefferson Darcy who is the opposite of Steve the roads.. a male gigolo pretty boy who's with varsity because of Hermione and it was great and I'm always glad that every time they have a reunions that Steve Rhodes and the Jefferson Darcy both actors are always welcome back and talking like this because they're both are incredible characters and Mary children will always be one of my favorite TV shows ever and let's not remember Fox network is huge and they have football rest they have special events like Super Bowl World Series and the NHL finals and others Fox network got started with marriage children and it was that show that put Fox network on the map

[@equivalentexchangeisalie5726]

Do you remember what interview that was?

[@Vichedges]

Not everyone is cut out to be a lead or gets the opportunity. Some of the best (and my favorite) actors are character actors. Ted is great in everything he's in. He always brings something. I loved Married with Children before he joined but IMO it got even better when Ted joined.

[@rcadenow7543]

ted is underrated...was very good and funny on the show.

[@B777-h6q]

Marcy... the original Karen.

[@craigdavis5407]

😃😃😃😃😃😃

[@kumikaneit]

Seeing the modern feminazis and social justice warriors, the character of Marcy is just a perfect prediction on the part of the producers and script writers as to how society will degrade over time.

[@coachmikesfilmroom3111]

Nah, Marcy had common sense for the most part.

[@chrisrodriguez7351]

Amen brother

[@chrisrodriguez7351]

Amanda bearse is only famous and known to us thanks to married with children which is thanks to Ed o Neil. She should've respected that and kept that thought in her head. She disrespect ed by not inviting him to her wedding because I'm sure the money she used for that wedding was because of married with children which in turn ed o Neil made possible. She's a straight up b!tch like marcy in the show and should've learned her place. I always acknowledge the person responsible for my pay raises and respect them. She's an old hag now

[@televisierewind5404]

Ted McGinley is always funny, cool and collective. Very underestimated actor. Love him !

[@sivedan]

Ted will always be remembered as Jefferson, over all te others roles he played, and over this new religion phase he's in, he was PERFECT for the Jefferson role; Interestingly that show was so well written, that none of the actors/actresses have ever shone as bright in the subsequent careers, as they did when in the immortal "Married with Children"

[@kendallrivers1119]

I agree Ted was perfect for the role as was all the other actors for their parts. Married with Children was perfectly cast and imo as good and hilarious as the writing was if it didn't have these calibers of actors attached playing these zany characters with commitment and likability then I don't think the show would've lasted as long as it did. Also, religion's not a phase lol it's only a "phase" for fake hypocrites.

[@moaningpheromones]

I hate it when people go through a religious phase. Such a downer, man.

[@ebirad7284]

ted macginley is the best

[@2.3_44XD--]

Yes. As a not very handsome man i always wished to be like him😜

[@SGobuck]

Ted should have been given Charlie Sheen's job in 2 1/2 men after Charlie got fired.

[@efwewfwef1549]

that is actually a pretty good idea!!

[@element19ch]

Never thought of that. I do think this would have worked out very well.

[@fortynights1513]

From someone who has watched a good amount of Two and a Half Men, this would have been interesting. As for what they ended up actually doing: Ashton Kutcher is a likable guy and was ok, but the tone of the show changed a lot, and it wouldn’t have appealed to most people who enjoyed the earlier show. I’ve always thought it would’ve been cool if Herb moved in with Alan. Also, fun fact: There’s a beautiful lady named Jennifer Aspen who played one of Bud’s girlfriends, and then played one of Alan Harper’s in an episode in a later season of Two and a Half Men.

[@babymaharaja7638]

the guy who plays Jefferson still looks great

[@speterbilt]

MWC will always be the best show

[@fherlinn]

I preferred Jefferson over Steve. But I also preferred both Jefferson and Steve to be on the show at the same time. Jefferson as the current mimbo husband and Steve as the villainous ex. I thought there was a lot of story potential with both actors being on the show at the same time. They are both good.

[@gentleheart7107]

Exactly, Steve could have been a great enemy to Marcy. I know David Garrison did not want to play Steve anymore, but really, it's such a wasted potential.

[@XanderBeckett1]

You forgot that Jefferson was much hotter than Steve.

[@redacted2275]

@@gentleheart7107 Yes. The episode Steve returns is hilarious... David was going to reprise his role as Steve on that college radio spinoff, there was a backpilot episode on MwC with that actress from Felicity and Steve as the principal. It bombed.

[@kendallrivers1119]

@@gentleheart7107 well he did get to play Marcy's enemy in the car wash episode and the college radio episode. I do wish he and Jefferson faced off again though. After that first appearance they never went toe to toe again. I wanted more Steve vs. The D'Arcys.

[@gentleheart7107]

@@kendallrivers1119 I know, he was even in episode with pirates or when he come back not knowing Marcy is married again. Actually, i think Jefferson and Steve could have the same dynamic as Al and Steve. I would love to see Marcy's reaction.

[@CookieMonster-we1in]

Amanda doesnt seem calm. She never really let McGinley finish speaking. She constantly kept informing the audience people went wild for kelly. Smh. AL and Peggy were the heavy hitters as well as marcy but amanda speaks with bitterness. Ed was correct, she just changed and started demanding more.

[@Censored4UViaGoogle]

So they’re still kind of playing Marcy and Jefferson

[@Vichedges]

I don't think she's that bad, she seems nice enough but her politics are grating. And I think she has some disdain for aspects of the show, like the T&A.

[@CoolGobyFish]

@@Vichedges she is full of herself. nobody forced her to be on that show.

[@westaussie965]

Angry lez🤷🏼‍♀️

[@d.l.9517]

Amanda Bearse basically listed shows that failed when Ted become a cast member, talk about rude.

[@JohnEngels1]

One of my favories of them is 10/22 where they go to "the hood" to "get down with the bros." I think this episode was called Enemies.

[@mayerbasic7004]

17:25 And, three years later, an animated "Married with Children" is happening. Dude called it. Bravo!

[@Vichedges]

It's really the only way it could be done now, with ED's age and Christina's illness. I hope it actually happens, I haven't heard anything about it lately.

[@kendallrivers1119]

​@@VichedgesI'm not exactly excited about the possibility. With all these garbage reboots I don't have any faith it would do MWC justice especially in this Uber sensitive era we're in you can't do most of the things the show said and did. Also? Look at that disaster Good Times animated show.

[@oldtwinsna8347]

The interviews with Michael Moye states how the Peggy character was a "Roseanne Barr type", but interestingly he did mention that John Goodman read for the part of Al Bundy but was rejected. So conceivably in some alternate universe, it ended up being Roseanne as Peggy and John Goodman as Al Bundy.

[@tbx59]

You can't just dress up a chicken and call it a panel member.

[@kendallrivers1119]

People can say what they want about Amanda but without her the show wouldn't have been the same as it wouldn't have been the same without Ted. The Darcys were as essential to the show as much as the Bundys were and as much as David Garrison's Steve was in his era. This was a show where EVERY character was essential to its success. Like Hogan's Heroes, Cheers, The Steve Harvey Show, Seinfeld, Everybody Loves Raymond, The Fresh Prince of Bel Air, Barney Miller, The Jeffersons, All In The Family, Frasier and Sanford and Son.

[@fortynights1513]

One thing I will say about Amanda: She sure can tell a story. Both here and in character (the fantasies anyone?)

[@moaningpheromones]

what's your favourite flavour of kool-aid?

Has Amanda Bearse transitioned ?

[@ladyscarfaceangel4616]

Bad Americans! 😂 Love that episode!

[@DianaTrent]

Wow, thanks for this! They still have the same chemistry with each other that they did 20 years ago. I was more of a Steve fan and have seen David Garrison onstage many many times over the years since I live in NYC (saw him last month in WORKING at City Center), but I always liked McGinley's take on being married to Marcy too, since he was so different and brought out other sides of Amanda's talent. If I'd been there, I would have asked Amanda about her play, PARTY FACE, that she directed last spring off-Broadway, starring British actress Hayley Mills. She also filled in for one of the actresses in the last week and was completely hilarious as a wacky aunt with an impeccable Irish accent. And if you search for the opening night pictures, you'll see several of a beaming David Garrison reunited with his old friend at her debut, just as she's come to many of his plays. Thanks again for this video!

[@bthere100]

Garrison is a good actor though I prefer McGinley.

[@kendallrivers1119]

I love both guys and feel that the show just was so blessed casting wise. It could've easily fell apart when Garrison left because he did have a very good role but they were smart to go a completely different way with McGinley and the Jefferson Darcy character. If they had just tried to replicate Steve that would've been disastrous. Thank God for Jefferson tbh because as much as I liked Steve I couldn't imagine that the show could've worked had he stayed the rest of the series. I couldn't in a million years see Steve really being the perfect sidekick for Al the way Jefferson was and could you even picture him joining No Ma'm? LOL

[@PillCozbee]

"busy schedules" LOL!

[@gentleheart7107]

I love Steve and Jefferson and i wished them to be in the show both. I think that dynamic between trio Jeff, Marcy and Steve would have been awesome. Ted McGinley is a really underestimated comedian, he is a great imitator.

[@fortynights1513]

It’s cool that Steve and Jefferson got to interact with one another. I don’t know of how many times in TV history where a character was replaced and the original character and the replacement both interacted with one another.

[@johncurry6260]

Jefferson was so much better than Steve. The show was hysterical.

[@ericandrews5003]

"kiss this nerd" fav line from ROTN

[@Dane_Youssef]

She teases him about his "show-killer" rep. I always felt the problem was they brought him on after the show had peaked. Luckily, he got cast on the show "Hope & Faith" from the beginning.

[@KrisBryant99]

I feel like she's playing chess with his emotions because Ted always made shoes better whenever he came up even if the ratings were low.

[@moaningpheromones]

He had a knack for joining hit shows during their run. Happy Days / Love Boat / MWC. He did very well in all of them and gives him an interesting unique career.

The Ted and Amanda scene that sticks out most to me was from the pirate fantasy: Marcy: Let me prove to you I am no boy! [Rips open shirt] Jefferson: [Stares & takes a beat] How? Marcy: Look closer, you idiot! Garrison was in that, too. Also, HUGE respect for Amanda for enduring all the abuse that was heaped upon her character during that show. The physical insults especially seem like they'd bee difficult to tolerate, since they apply not just to her character but to Amanda personally.
