Top 5 Christmas Moments In 'All In The Family' | All In The Family

[@Vejur9000]

Carol O’Conner was a powerhouse actor, especially when he lost his temper as Archie.

[@victoryhillstudioanimalpor2625]

Often at his funniest when he did!😂

[@LittleBlueOwl318]

IRL he was the polar opposite of Archie Bunker

[@nadinedaoud2538]

Absolutely 💯 but they were ALL Amazing too 🎬

[@BrianCarnevaleB26]

Notice the "meadow green" Pyrex at the dinner table?? I am willing to be few if anyone even noticed that. I am a collector with a sharp eye.

[@clems6989]

Carol O'Conner done more to get us out of viet nam than anyone...

[@K4familySnoeberger]

I love it, I love it, I love it! Great memories with All in the Family. We got to see a soft-hearted Archie when Edith was in the hospital. It's very rare to see a soft-hearted Archie.

[@lisafritz8022]

Oh how I have missed All in the family.....watching all videos now! I need a good laughing.✌️😎

[@nataliegillmore7436]

The Draft Dodger episode and Edith's crisis of faith made me teary eyed 😢

[@BrianCarnevaleB26]

They knew how to touch upon the issues of the day and it made people think. I wrote a school paper on the show and got a B.

[@mommyshark1124]

Seeing Edith broken touched everyone.

[@captaincommonsense7896]

The nurse, where Archie visits Edith in the hospital, is actress Katherine MacGregor, who played Harriet Olsen on the 1970s TV series, "Little House on the Prairie." She was a fantastic actress!

It is now May 15th, 2024. I'll revisit this comment this coming December to return in kind 😊

[@EsterKunin-zs2dw]

This hospital episode shows how much Edith means really to Archie, how much he really needs and loves her, even though he insults her all the time.😊

[@resistresist1811]

He's toxic. His love is immature and luckily in today's world he wouldn't get away with the gaslighting and abuse. The show was great at exposing that.

[@ggeorge4144]

I had an elderly neighbor like that, always putting his wife down to act like a tough guy. When she died he fell apart. He died a month or so later.

[@EsterKunin-zs2dw]

The hospital scene brought tears to my eyes. Archie showed Edith how much he loved her and how scared he was for her health.

[@SuperN1ntendoChalmers]

That wasn't the first time he did that. Everyone knew how much Edith meant to Archie.

[@EphemeralProductions]

It was so cute when he hugged her. ❤❤❤

[@WemmieFemmie]

You can't get better than the first scene. Superb acting.

[@EsterKunin-zs2dw]

I loved that Beverly LaSalle!😂

[@ggeorge4144]

That's the one part of the show I could not stand. Promoting something that lifestyle is disgusting. Look at where it has brought us today.

[@cherylcantrell2426]

I loved those episodes they hit home 🏡. merry Christmas and happy new year too everyone.❤🎉❤

[@harryjones-haroldine]

Loved it when they got stuck in the doorway 🤣

[@linda9081]

One of the best episodes ever. Good for you David for standing by your principles.

[@RoseRedd-k4b]

That Draft Dodger episode touched me. Everyone has a different opinion Archie, I am sure if you could have avoided WWII you would have. I also love how when Mike and Arch were trying to get out the door they look like the Three Stooges. LMAO.

[@EphemeralProductions]

That was an ongoing joke, they were always doing that. lol. And yes it was ALWAYS funny! Lol

[@tommyryan1311]

Some of the most powerful eps! Merry Christmas!!

[@JenniferRamirez-j7c]

When Beverley dies it just makes me cry.

[@markbirchette8740]

Carol O' Conor was great as the General in Kelly's Heros as well.

[@jocelynastheart2732]

The first episode got me! it is such a complicated decision and Archie went to war so he knows the pain.

[@annasantostefano6826]

Tecnically, Santa wasn't a thief, he was a counterfiter to be fair lol

[@ImogenC-rt3fm]

GOOSEBUMPS!. The kind of writing and acting makes me at once envious and wistful. As an actor, you fantasize about this kind of ensemble. But when you’re in it (I was once) you can’t see it, OR feel it. You’re too immersed in joy and gratitude. Every single word you say is “Yes”-or “Love”. But you don’t see it till after you wrap (usually a hangover is also required). The fancy word for it is “consilience.” I think. Also “flow”. But what it is, is an unsayable pure joy. And once you’ve tasted it, you’ll miss it forever. And you’ll be hungry for it the rest of your life. O. (come back, BWadwee! I miss ewe like that-damn your eyes.) Come back. I’m incapable of running away from you anymore. I think I might be yours. But…okay, truth to tell, I’m running from the law AND Clunt’s people are gunning for me. I do need help getting this sorted out and I’m blah blah blah still blinded by my absolute conviction I’m more literate than the shambling monstrosity you and your people and their people, and their people’s people (see how I did that?) have made of my autocomplete. HAVE YOU MARRIED ME YET?? This is not a rhetorical question. I really want to know. If only for the children.

[@natiliee.s.5476]

I don't know who said it, but I will always remember his words. "I'm tired of old men sending young men off to die." A draft dodger could eat at my table any day.

[@vernwallen4246]

The Vietnam war was one BIG fraud.

[@diannejacobson3112]

This was A Powerhouse Episode

[@adonnus-qz3oy]

The last one is always sad 😢😢😢

[@gramps2matt]

OMG! I just realized the actress playing the nurse in the second scene is the actress who played Mrs. Olson on Little House On The Prairie!

[@VeRonicaMitchell-ii1pm]

Never be actors like this again

[@joyceadair3003]

Never will be actors like this again. They were great.

[@cle5676]

There won't be any shows like this anymore. It's a real shame. Everything has to be "PC" 😒 people can't even laugh at themselves anymore.

[@OneWayDesigns]

Look at Mrs. Olson! It'd good to see her being nice for once 😂

[@BonnieDenouden]

Edith looks very attractive in this episode.

[@EsterKunin-zs2dw]

Oh, that Beverly!!!!!!!!😅

[@jonathanlocke6404]

I think that in the original broadcast of the first clip, "The Draft Dodger", Archie said "I don't want talk about that rotten goddamn war any more"...I remember it was pretty shocking at the time. Later on, I guess they edited it down to just "damn" for syndication. You can kinda see the sync of his voice get a little off there...That second clip at the hospital, Archie kinda looked like he made an attempt to sort of groom his hair down...I hope that was intentional...

[@Greg8872]

The first clip was cut off too soon, his reflection at the end made the scene IMO

[@007modmom]

Dude lives in Canada for freedom??? LOL. Wonder what he would say today?

[@lesweizman388]

[@barbaraannscarlet7885]

[@unstrungstudios818]

The land of the free..not just pretty words.

[@EsterKunin-zs2dw]

You can see that when Archie screams, he is not acting. He really believes in this cause of the draft.!!!!

[@ddrissel]

No, you are almost certainly wrong. The actor who portrayed Archie was a liberal in real life. Archie was a caricature of a conservative, bigoted ignoramus, though deep down he had a heart. Given his liberal views in real life and the fact that the Vietnam war had become very unpopular by the time this show was produced, Carol O’Connor was simply acting his part as Archie.

[@resistresist1811]

Absolutely wrong. This show was written to expose archies ignorance

[@SarahWildes-do9qw]

This shows what a good actor Carroll O'Connor was because he was a liberal in real life.

[@feliciaburdock9093]

When I was a kid I agreed with Mike. Now I know Archie was right and Mike is a pos

[@RevLeigh55]

52 years later I still believe Mike was right.

[@shawnyoung8752]

Both are right. Yet archie finnaly admitts the war was wrong. He was talking about your loyalty to your country. WW2 had to ve fought. Vietnam didnt. Different generations. I watched the war on tv growing up. At 7 8 years old it was obvious the parents in their 40s had a different opinion on the war than their 15 16 year old kids. Music, long hair,reading beatnik books were nothing if you badmouth the military and government about the war. This show came out when i was 9. This was nothing like the Brady Bunch. It was like watching what i have seen last 2 3 years in real life.

[@ddrissel]

It’s sad that you evidently became less intelligent and more bigoted with age. Mike was definitely right most all of the time, especially when he was arguing with Archie about race, gender, and other social issues. We were supposed to laugh at Archie, not with him. He was an uneducated bigot, but deep down he wasn’t a bad person. It’s no coincidence that Archie Bunker and Donald Trump were both from Queens. The difference, however, is that Trump is both a bigot and a bad person.

[@MiamiJato]

I’m opposite, Archie is always a POS, but i loves Mike….

[@EphemeralProductions]

Katherine macgregor from little house as Edith’s nurse. :)

[@orlandobabe]

David the draft dodger could’ve just said, I love living in Canada and if Archie keeps inquiring then tell him “more snow is better for me”.
