Does anyone watch "All In the Family" with Archie and Edith?

This show is funny. I started watching the repeats and boy, Archie sure can say his words in an hilarious way. Edith is a real pip, so ditzy, but she is no pushover either. Mike and Gloria, wel, when Gloria cried I have to turn the sound down. it's awful.
If you have a favorite Archie comment post it.

I like Meathead.

And if I'm not mistaken the show spawned more spin offs than any in TV history. Happy Days included (it had 3).

Jeffersons, Maude, Archie Bunker's Place, Good Times... hrm, maybe more.

I remember watching it when I was younger.
Gloria was really annoying, but Meathead was funny.

IMO the most important show on TV ever. Started in 1971, showed the world how ridiculous racism, sexism, etc was. Archie plowed the way for rights of others than WASP men.

BTW, Carrol O'Conner took control of the show about the 3rd season, he should get a nod for breaking down the borders.

I just started watching it and he is very funny. I am going to see if I can fine some Arcchie/Edith lines.lol
Should be funny to read.

Well, I'll tell you one thing about President Nixon. He keeps Pat home. Which was where Roosevelt should have kept Eleanor. Instead he let her run around loose until one day she discovered the colored. We never knew they were there. She told them they were gettin' the short end of the stick and we been having trouble ever since
Archie Bunker:bash:

He (Nixon) didn't lie! He just forgot to tell the truth

The only thing that holds a marriage together is the husband being big enough to keep his mouth shut, to step back and see where his wife is wrong.

I know all about your women's problems, Edith! If you're going to change, you're going to do it now! And I'm giving you just thirty seconds! Now come on! Change!"

I didn't swear! God Dammit. The first word is God. How can that be a swear word? It's the most popular word in the bible. The second word, damn, that's a perfectly good word, you hear it all the time, like they dam the river to keep it from flooding it. And you read in the Bible that some guy was damned for cheating or stealing or having sex in the family. And who damned him? Who else? God. God damned him. Edith, beautiful words right out of the Bible

All them surgeons-they're highway robbers. Why do you think they wear masks when they work on you?

Edith, at my age I don't need ROUGHAGE--I need SMOOTHAGE!"
Archie Bunker

Archie: "Edith where are ya?"
Edith: "Is that you Archie?"
Archie: "No its Marcus Welby makin' a house call!"

Archie Bunker: "We didn't come out from under no rocks, we didn't have no tails, and we didn't come from monkees, you atheistic pinko meathead!"

: " Can't you ask me an intelligent question?"
Mike: "I didn't wanna confuse you"

: "Well ya know who I think you should call? (Edith: "Who?"
Archie: "Chicken Delight Edith cause we ain't gonna get no supper outta you!"

"DB Edith"
Edith: "DB?"
Archie: "Ding Bat"

: "Get me an ice bag, will ya"
Edith: "For your head?"
Archie: "No Edith, I wanna build an igloo"

: "Where's my crunchy cereal with the animal cutouts?" ROFL

Mike:: "Ya know you are totally incomphrensible"
Archie: "Maybe so, but I make a lot of sense"

(Archie is ready to leave with Mike to go fishing, but Mike is still sleeping)
"Oh, look at this...Rip van Meathead!"

Mike climbs into bed with Archie and pours himself a glass of water, but accidently spills it on Archie's leg. Archie was asleep until then)
Archie: "You got into bed with me to do this here?"
Mike: "It was an accident!"
Archie: "No, with little Joey, it would be an accident. With you, it's a dishonorable discharge!"

(Archie is locked in his basement and is so drunk, he thinks that God has come to get him. "God" turns out to be a black oil man. Archie kneels before him)
"Forgive me, Lord! The Jeffersons was right!"

(Edith has taken an interest in Catholicism, and she attends mass with her friend, Irene Lorenzo. Archie does not approve of this)
Archie: "Did someone wave a stick at you and splash you with water?"
Edith shakes her head "no".
Archie: "Did you have to get on your knees and kiss anybody's rings?"
Edith shakes her head "no".
Archie: "DID YOU EAT A COOKIE?!!"
Edith: "No, Archie, the only thing I had tonight was ice cream."

Great show..One of the most important shows as well.
Archies "Bunkerisms" (hard pore cornography) were classic.

Carrol O'Conner was a genious at portraying ignorance.

the show was REALLY LOUD too..ever notice that?

Yes...I notice Archie yess a lot, as well as Edith...lol
"Archie is that you?"

I just cannot help it, I love Archie and his sayings. So, here I found more.
