Al Bundy is a true American hero. He KNEW that tomorrow would only bring him pain and anguish. He STILL got up every day, faced it head on saying, "Let's Rock."
4 Touchdowns...
The painful mediocrity of everyone's life. 😇☺️😏😌🥸👽👾🤖🍿
One of my all time favorite movies was Dutch, i cant believe it bombed in the box office. It was hands down the best role Ed O'Neil ever played
you seen him in Wayne's World movies ? @@andrewbatts7678
@@JackCarsonite ...in a single game.
I was 16 when this show premiered, so I was obviously in that age group that loved snarky humor. I'm 52 now and still think Al Bundy is a true American hero.
The funny thing is that the actress playing Marcy wrote most of the interactions between Marcy and Al.
Also, most of the heavier women were comedians and wrote Al's fat jokes.
Some people would have a fit watching this now but I believe most would still see it as simply brilliant.
I have never seen you guys laugh so hard!😂😅
Please do more clips of this!
Wow! Great info @firefighterchick. I always love interesting back stories and I miss the days of no holds barred comedy.
I remember reading the actress playing Marcy was a writer, but I can't find any references to that anywhere. However, she did direct quite a few episodes.
Best Wishes. ☮
@jameshawkins2984
have you ever seen the movie Porkys?
If you want no-holds-bar comedy that's the father of all movies.
It came out in 1982.
@@firefighterchick LOL!!! Yep. Great example.
Sadly, she also ended up ruining the show in the later years when she gained control. Apparently, Amanda and Ed never got along with each other.. They basically butted heads since the first season, but that never really showed on screen. She says Ed was impossible to deal with being stubborn, Ed says she was trying to force her views on the audience over the original outlook for the show. I tend to believe Ed as the show took a weird direction once she became director. That and she dissapeared after the show and Ed has gone on to many projects and is usually praised by everyone for being a nice guy.
Hello there. This series from the 80s is still a hit here in Germany. And no matter how bad we're doing, one episode of Al and we're going to be a whole lot better. Because we know... no one has it tougher than Al Bundy. On the other hand, we love Al's character. That charm, that sophistication... that passion... paired with his gestures and facial expressions... not to mention the sayings... it's a celebration. Al Bundy for President. Warm greetings from Germany.
it was the most watched comedy for a long time in Romania as well. I still watch 1 or 2 episodes from time to time
Alemania❤
Good to know the show made it's way to Deutschland! Danke.
Warm greetings and burning hot endings- from 🇩🇪
When comedy was funny and people were adults. Miss those days.
Like the Aliens' joke:
Hudson: "Hey, Vasquez, have you ever been mistaken for a man?"
Vasquez: "No, have you?"
Like Conan said, "It isn't how hard you can hit but how hard you can get hit." People nowadays are such weaklings that they cannot even hear jokes.
And insane people were in institutions. lol
💯 People want to feel outraged all the time. It has made life tedious and boring
Best years for tv comedy across the board.
Me too
*This show was almost canceled after the first season. There wasn't a lot of advertising for it, nobody was watching it because they didn't know about it, and then some woman complained and started all these protests and went on talk shows to say how offensive it was. This got ppl curious, ppl started watching to see what it was all about and it shot to #1 and stayed there. This is one of the best and funniest shows ever!*
BULLSHIT!
This is true but misleading. The boycott was lead by a woman (Terry Rakolta), but the boycott was a conservative boycott over sexual, violent, and some homosexual humor. Saying "some woman" complained makes it sound like it was some sort of boycott over the depiction of women, which it was not.
@@jamesschaaf612 True but it did start with "some woman" (Terry). She freaked out over the bra episode.. the one where Al is trying to find Peggy's discontinued bra, and so it began. She got the ball rolling, she contacted advertisers, she went on the talk shows, etc..Sure it became more than the one topic she was whining about as well as political in some sense.. and sure, others got involved and were on her side. But it still began with just her having a fit about the bra episode. Either way, it never did anything but make the show popular and bolster rating. So thank you Terry. 👍
also fox was very new
@@MATTHEW-rp3kq Yeah, I remember they were talking about cancelling the channel because the ratings weren't very high and the channel was considered the one that took shows that the main networks wouldn't air. Then the ratings shot through the roof with Married with Children and their other shows were becoming more popular. I think that's why the show always made references to Fox being a horrible channel with awful shows.. kinda making fun of themselves.
“Married With Children” caused me to get suspended from school for a week when I was 9.
My parents loved this show, and I watched it with them (I was too young to get the sex jokes so it really didn’t matter), and this was in the late 80’s and early 90’s when the show was in its original run.
One of my teachers was a nasty, obese woman who really hated me because I was a happy kid and I was talkative. One day there was a large assembly in the school auditorium, all the individual classes were there, all the teachers, and the principal. I was sitting in the second row and talking to my friend sitting next to me. My fat and mean teacher got angry and yelled at me: “Mr. Eriksen...I’ve just about had enough of you!”, to which I loudly replied: “You wouldn’t say that if I came with large fries and a drink!”. Everyone began laughing hysterically, even the teachers who were trying not to couldn’t help it. She had me suspended for a week for that. My parents were furious, and embarrassed, but once they met her they weren’t mad at me anymore because she was mean to them too, and my mother ended up calling her an obese douche bag.
omg lol no you didnt. XD
Now that's funny!🤣👍
Bahahaha 🤣🤣🤣❤️
OMG! That is so Funny!
@@UltimateGamerCCes, I really did! My main motivation was making people laugh when I was a kid, and my mind instantly remembered how that particular joke made my parents laugh hysterically, my mother ended up choking on her iced tea. That episode had aired only a week or so before, so it was fresh in my mind when the fat teacher yelled that she’d had just about enough of me. I was also a very well behaved kid (my parents were from Sweden and very strict as far as manners and being nice), but this teacher just hated happy kids. Normally I didn’t talk back to her in class because I learned really quickly that she was nice to the kids if other teachers or the Principal were around, but once she had us alone with her and the door was shut, she’d be mean. She used to pick on shy or quiet kids until they cried, and she’d laugh at them. I do think parents complained about her, because once or twice a week the Principal or another teacher would sit in on one of our classes. Obviously she wasn’t going to act up with them there, so it was pointless. But that day in the auditorium with all the teachers and the Principal there, I had protection from her. So when I made that Al Bundy comment to her, I knew she couldn’t do much to me. I also said it in a very nice and polite way, just loud enough for everyone to hear. The auditorium had a cathedral ceiling so it echoed, which was even funnier. I became a legend after that, especially with the older “cool” kids who hated her.
What made me happy was seeing the teachers AND the Principal trying not to laugh, but they couldn’t help it.
It's good to see Brits enjoying the Bundy's. I grew up watching reruns of "The Benny Hill" show on PBS late at night. The world lost one of the greats when he died.
I miss that show. The simple irreverent humor really was the best medicine.
Insult's are not funny
@@margitserna9762 Yes and no. Context matters.
A random person throwing out random insults isn't funny.
Doing a joke setup, then delivering an insult as the punchline, can be funny, depending on the delivery and timing.
It also depends on the target of the insult. If/when someone is being nasty, that makes them a more acceptable target. A nice person is not an acceptable target. So the framing of the joke is also important.
None of Al's targets are pleasant people. For instance, when Al meets Marcy's lesbian sister, he treats like a friend, no insults, a few questions about her lifestyle, plenty of respect, because she treats him nice. On the other hand, Marcy. 'Nuff said.
That was a great show. The entire Bundy clan was like a pack of feral dogs.
Here's one for you. One time Al was standing next to his son Bud, and says to him, "Bud, what would you rather have in life, love or money?". And without the slightest hesitation Bud says, "Money. I can always buy love". A tear wells up in Al's eye, as he embraces Bud. "That's my boy!" 😂
and the lesson is they fough each other but if one person threatened =any of them they were all in
Man, I remember sitting in the living room with the whole family watching this as a kid.
Same. I laughed till I cried sometimes. 😂
"Never try to understand women, women understand women and they all hate eachother" Al Bundy
I can't even see, tears are pouring down my face. I forgot how great all of the characters comedic timing was. I watched every episode and I now want to go back and watch them all again. Oh to go back to a time when people could take a joke. Thanks guys.😂😂✌
truly a timeless classic, yet underrated to a degree.
Also the complete series is available on DVD. I bought it off amazon for around $50 years ago.
Definitely worth it from season 1 on 😊
It's better to have physical copies, they can't alter it that way. Disney has been altering the shows and movies they acquired from their acquisition of Fox for both Disney+ and Hulu as well as for the movies they are re-releasing on blu-ray.
This show was unprecedented, it was the first time such brutal lines were spoken on a prime time sitcom. The only other sitcoms that parallel it are "All In The Family", with the Archie Bunker character, and "Sanford & Son" with Redd Fox's character. Funny as hell, MWC quickly became my favorite show to watch growing up, and I miss shows like this. It didn't hold back.
Sanford & Son was one of my FAVS back when it was airing. 😂
Also don't forget The Jeffersons. George Jefferson was brutal.
@@weezerangAnd the writers for THE JEFFERSONS became the producers for MARRIED WITH CHILDREN.
This is one of the most consistently funny shows ever. Every single episode was hilarious. Especially when you know the characters and we're waiting on the joke you knew was coming. You didn't know exactly what it would be but you knew it would be great.
One of the running gags was Al calling Marcie either a chicken or a young boy.
Not every episode. This show had its losers occasionally. Not every show was "moon men have my socks" good. But even the lesser episodes still had a bright moment.
I've never gone back and watched it again, beyond the rerun here and there. But I remember not liking the final season or two. But even so, it remained a weekly staple for me from the time I was about 8 or 9. I didn't get all the jokes, but there was still a lot of stuff I loved. I have to put this on my list to rewatch.
I honestly found it to start going downhill with the introduction of the Seven kid. But the first few seasons were legendary.
IT honestly started running its course after season 5 or 6, it lost steam by then.
i lived in england in the 80's. i loved this show and had some friends over to watch an episode. as i was laughing i noticed my english friends were quite. i asked if they thought it was funny. one friend replied '' its awlful how they treat their dad''.😂😂😂😂
@barrysmith5830
😂😂 That us Brits for you, always respect your parents, not matter how much a d1ck he is 😂😂Thanks for the comment
I was born in 1983. I grew up on this show. It helped fuel my snark. Love it.
As an American in my forties, i can say Al Bundy is a God Damn American HERO! You just learned what we knew since the 80's!
I just wish Fox had followed through by producing episodes of "Psycho Dad" from Al's TV. 😂
@@frankmueller2781 Who's that riding in the sun?
Who's the man with the itchy gun?
Who's the man who kills for fun?
Psycho Dad, Psycho Dad, Psycho Dad.
@@pizzaking7878every song is different lol
"Killed his wife cuz she weighed a ton. Psycho dad, psycho dad, psycho dad." 😅
Agree he is the true American Dad, we all wanted growing up back then.
A TV character is a hero??
Hahaha!! No wonder America has a reality show star/businessman and a casting couch patron as the choices for president! America was doomed long before the issues of today!!
Al Bundy is an AMERICAN treasure!!
I use to stay with my grandparents alot when I was a kid (late 80s early 90's) my grandfather would always watch this. I didn't really understand the jokes, but he would be CRACKING up!!! It would make me smile, to see him laugh! R.I.P.❤
So so funny! Being a "larger" person myself, I still find Al's comebacks hillarious. Just great comedy, I wish that sort of humour was still accepted for what it was, comedy. Great reaction, loved it. Cheers from Australia.
I totally agree😂😂
In 1966 Al became the only player to score four touchdowns in a single game while playing for the Polk High School Panthers in the 1966 city championship game . Including the game-winning touchdown in the final seconds
Honestly, as a heavy woman myself, I still burst out laughing at this show. 😂 I was only 7 years old when the show started airing and I didn't really watch much of it then. It was only when I caught the reruns as a teenager that I appreciated it and I was always a heavier gal (though less heavy back then) and I never got offended at it. It's COMEDY! Most comedy is about making fun of people for one thing or another. I don't understand why people are such delicate snowflakes these days. 😅
I agree. Also, many of the ladies who were being "insulted" by Al were the ones who wrote the jokes being used. I know that the one in the pink blouse of the Häagen-Dazs joke was a stand-up comedian back in the day and made plenty of self deprivation jokes
Yep, that's real equality right there...*No one* is off the chopping block.
That's one thing I really dislike about the Radical Left...They take themselves too seriously to have a sense of humor & that makes them so much funnier for the wider majority of people to laugh at.
@@Blondie42 Yeah, I remember when I found out about that. Just made the jokes funnier to me. No one makes fat people jokes better than a fat person. Gabriel "Fluffy" Iglesias is one of my favorite comedians for a reason! 😁👍
@@MidnightDStroyer Exactly my thoughts! Comedy is the one TRUE equalizer. EVERYONE gets equally made fun of! Making fun of the radicals is always twice as funny though. 😂👍
@@MidnightDStroyerremind of who is freaking out over a beer company target walmart manga in the library storming government building because of an election disney and so on but the left are the snowflakes no 😂
. I was in highschool from 1990 and graduated in '94, and this was hands down the most popular show for most of the kids I knew.
I'm surprised there weren't any of the two part Byndys going to England episodes. I remember one of the referring jokes was with the guide "Winston," and Al kept mixing up his name with other cigarette brands.
Most of the "bigger"women were comedians,they wrote the jokes themselves 😂
LOL to have a sense of humor like that must have meant they had golden personalities hahaha
And I love them for that.
I was 7 when this show came on. I saw a few episodes later on in my teens. I was a casual fan at the time. But last year I bought all 11 Seasons on DVD. Now I bust out laughing. Great show!
They wouldn't dare make this today. Too many people get so offended these days.
And you"re right. We need more comedy like this.Glad you all enjoyed the clip. Cheers! From the USA.
The live audience reactions hooting and hollering was just as wild as the stories of the episodes! LOL. Married With Children is one of my all time favorite sitcoms of all time! Still HILARIOUS today in re-runs! Also realize the customers are just as obnoxious being demanding "Karens"and yes fat which deserves a good come back like Al Bundy gives them! :)
Whenever I need a good laugh I watch the best of Al Bundy and everything is right with the world again.
They had great writers on the show. Al was Great!
Yeah and Marcy who always gets roasted by Al was one of the writers :)
"I'd say it behind your back, but my car only got half a tank of gas!"
Will forever be my favorite.
Al Bundy was one in a million. I wondered how you guys would like this considering British humor is a little different
different in some ways, but i imagine similar in others.
I remember coming home one day after work and turning on the TV just in time to see the first ever episode of Some Mothers Do 'Av 'Em. Watched the full run of it. Then it was gone and I was starved for humor. I finally stumbled onto Married with Children and I was hooked. Al Bundy was every man's hero. A true role model. He could say and do no wrong. Laughed 'til I hurt. When MWC disappeared I found another to fill the void, Unhappily Ever After. Similar, but different enough. I liked it. It's been slim pickins since. This planet's in a different orbit. Snowflakes and pronouns. Gag me with a spoon.
It's really not all that different. Modern British comedy is just a British take on American comedy, which was a take on British comedy.
What it comes down to is funny is funny, regardless of the region.
The producers of this series had previously worked on the television series THE JEFFERSONS.
The thing with Al was he picked on large women, and everyone else. But he also aired for the GenX generation. We didn't cater to people's feelings we were the ones who were told as kids that if it wasn't broken or gushing blood to shake it off and suck it up. Insults were a status and you learned to laugh at yourself so you could also laugh at others.
Yes, as a Gen-Xer (b. 1973) I know this is absolutely true.
Born in 72, miss the old days of normal.
1975 👍
1973, also. Absolutely true. Trading insults between classes was the main form of entertainment for my group of friends in high-school.
77' I had to wear hippy bell bottom hand me downs for the first few years of elementary. If I could only go back knowing what I know now, I could've spared myself a lot of grief but I probably never had partied with Coolio during spring break at South Padre island just because someone introduced us asked if I could get some good weed. A few pounds later I'm getting high with the most popular rapper in America at the time. Or I wouldn't have bumped into Nikki Six in New Orleans and end of getting wasted with him and his group till about noon the next
day
I grew up with this show while in my teen years, I especially loved the "No Ma'am" episodes!
BP1, you're absolutely correct. Society is way too triggered anymore, and that is sad. A little factoid: Frank Sinatra sings the theme song Love and Marriage, originally recorded in 1955.
"Society is way too triggered anymore" don't give me that crap
@smcauley600
LOL.
@smcauley600 You are a prime example. Any differing opinion is a trigger
Enjoyed. Watching you gentlemen find the great AL .
Oh come off it. Are there instances where people are too reactive and ready to take offense? Sure. But some changes HAD to happen. It's easy to be dismissive if you're not the person who traditionally was targeted.
In the case of this show though, they made it clear what kind of show it was going in. People could, and should, have turned it off if they were offended. But that's not a fair assessment for everything and everyplace people said offensive things. If someone does promotion for a movie, let's say, and drops the N word, for example, or jokes how his Jewish agent is taking too much of his paycheck, or goes on a political rant... shouldn't they pay a price? It's all about context. Inside this show, risque jokes were in context. But people overall aren't just "too triggered". Sometimes it's just holding people responsible for saying stupid stuff. Again, it's where and how they say it.
They are bringing the show back in an animated format, with the original actors doing the voices 😊
Please tell me this is true. Please? Please!!
That was really funny, that is proper comedy gold.
The greatest line from this whole segment was? "Hey you're in my sun I'm trying to get an all over tan! "Well you're asking a lot of the Sun"! Then there was this one. " All that jumping in aerobics class my foot must have expanded"l Al replies I see you must have fallen on your butt a time or two "! .The customer then says " How dare you say that to my face"! Al’s final words are . " I'd say it behind your back but,my car only has a half a tank of gas"! Complete comedy gold! One of the greatest sitcoms of all time!
@matthewphillips2698
Just so many great and classic lines from this one clip.
Very funny indeed, more people should watch in remind themselves how good it is to have a good laugh
We need shows like this to come back, regardless of offending the mental illness we have in society these days.
I still remember the one where the Bundy's go to England and there is a generational Bundy curse over the village.
It'd be even funnier now, so many new groups and views to insult 🤣
@@stoveboltlvr3798 yeah the 3 parter.
You should try "The Windsors", a send up of the British Royals.
@@peterschmidt1453 Great show, and the just did a coronation special as well!
Nobody else could play Al Bundy but Ed O'Neil.
The classic Al Bundy "Winner" speech is an absolute must watch.
For context it is directed at the school librarian that made his childhood absolute hell, taught him by accident to be the snappy comeback having asshole he is, and always told him he would be an amount to nothing loser in life.
One of the greatest speeches ever in my opinion.
His beer tax and fighting the young punk speeches were also great...
Oh yeah, Labor Day on the jammed freeway too...
I miss those days like crazy. It seems like it was all 10 lifetimes ago. Almost a fading memory but it's so great to see it come back to life. My eyes are all wet. lol
Loved your reactions and the way you really appreciate the humor that era.
Ed O'Neal who plays Al Bundy is also the Dad (Jay) on Modern Family (married to Sofia Vergera on the show)
A lot of us Americans watch Brit comedy. Nice to see Brits watching our shows.
One that sticks out in my mind.
Al comes home and finds a note from Pegg. It reads, AL, me and Kelly have gone shopping. Dinner is on the table. Al walk to kitchen, on the table is a can of soup and a can opener.😂
Love the show! I own the complete collection on DVD now!!
Great show. Some background, Al always made fun of his neighbor Marcie by calling her a chicken. This explains the "cluck, cluck" and "beak job" jokes. I enjoyed your reaction.
I like how he was talking to Marcy and it said she shouldn't have crossed the road when she had a house across the road that was torn down due to a address error that the bundys was supposed to hand off a key to somebody else and then they ended up buying a house right next door😊
I thought it was BIC job :)
How Ed O'Neill kept a straight face during these scenes is beyond me!
I got tickets and was in the audience for one of their tapings. Usually, they taped the show twice on a Friday night and selected the best scenes from both tapings. The audience was encouraged to be expressive. It's crude humor...but funny.
One of the best sitcoms ever!
When I was in high school Al Bundy was my idol. I loved him.
All those ladies were comediens that helped with the writting of the show.
Definitely treat yourselves to some full episodes. They're great, especially the earlier seasons.
One of the best tv shows ever.
In Al's defense (sort of), many of the people he insulted either came in with aggressive attitudes, or were making his day miserable by their actions/words, and Al almost always loses in the end. I think you'd get a laugh out of the two episode story where the Bundys go to England. Either Season 6 or 7 I forget which.
I forgot about those episodes!
@@firefighterchick I'm in the process of binge watching the entire show and several days ago i watched these episodes., I'd forgotten about them too.
Bill Oddie was in that one, a Village had to kill Al and Bud to break a curse of Darkness upon it, the neighboring village needed to kill them before they got there.
@@garethmorgan8326 Yes! The cursed village wanted to lift the curse, but a neighboring village (which made it's money from tourism from visitors looking on the cursed neighbor). Very funny!
NNot really, more often than not, Al came out swinging and totally unprovoked.
I have such fond memories growing up, watching this show on sunday nights each week for several years with my sister and late mother.
My favorite episodes was the story arc where the family travels to England. Good times and good laughs
I loved that show I'm going to watch your reaction again
The USA was truly a great place to grow up in the 80's!! I'm very fortunate that I was ages 6-16 from 1980-1990 and got to witness the greatest decade in American culture! 2023 sucks ASS!
Right there with you! Born in 74 and I hate the globalist run new world.
This was one funny show; Ed went on to star in Modern Family, which had some incredible one-liners. One of my favorite British shows was AbFab. I enjoy inappropriate comedy. A lot of Americans don't know the joy of those shows.
FAWLTY TOWERS fan here... best show in the world.
Loved this show! So many shows I used to watch just wouldn’t be allowed on tv now.
GLAD YOU SHOWED THIS. BROUGHT BACK ALOT OF MEMORIES AND LAUGHTER! HAVE BEEN LAUGHING SINCE IT CAME ON. NOW IT WOULD BE NICE TO SEE ALL OF THE PAST SHOWS!!! GLAD YOU SHOWED THIS!!!
I miss this show. A reminder of times when people didn't care if someone got offended. You can't make shows like that anymore. I'm surprised someone hasn't tried to get this show erased from history.
7:19 - That ICE CREAM joke went over ya, lads. Haagen Dazs is an ice cream maker here. Turning it into a law firm was top notch, especially back then.
Did you catch it?
The 80’s and 90‘s where the best in everything!
Comedy, sports, music, fun, standup, movies……list goes on!
The 90‘s ❤❤❤❤❤❤
Wrong, Sparky - very wrong.
@@yankee2666
90‘s where literally the best time in everything…..ask the whole world 😘
Seems like one joke might have went over your head, the one about lawyers. Here in the US it's a commercial thing where lawyers offices are usually pairs, like "If you need help call the law offices of So And So", the punchline was about ice cream (Hagen Daz).
Most of the jokes where about hating his job and fat shaming (although the jokes were mostly written by the women/actors/comedians playing them), or sibling rivalry (see Kelly Bundy's insults to Bud), or Al making fun of his wife or neighbors wife.
At the end they all took a bow together on stage, had a laugh, and cashed their checks.
They way they were cancelled was uncalled for, they never even got a final episode.
Married with children is just one of those shows that will forever stand the test of time. Absolutely brilliant - especially so today.
I don’t know if you guys got The Cosby Show, the top show in the US in the late 80s, but it was this very idealized family with a doctor father and a lawyer mother. Anyhow Married With Children was originally conceived to be “the anti Cosby Show” and it quickly resonated with audiences. It’s high time for another show like this to absolutely trash the delicate sensibilities of modern audiences.
These two gentlemen get it.
I wish we had gotten a lot more of the British shows over here, it was few and far between.
Bro the best program back in the days
Iv been watching Al Bundy for years I absolutely love that character as a UK resident this is definitely one of the best comedy,s to come out of America. It’s something the woke idiots will never get they don’t know what they are missing. We need more good comedy like this long live the Bundy family ❤❤❤
I loved this show I used to watch it back in the day with my Dad, for some strange reason I think it was on BBC2 in the UK at 6pm or 6.30pm . So funny
One of the best you've done. The footage was hilarious and your reactions were priceless. How I do miss those days when there were no safe spaces and people were not triggered by every hint of irreverence. Another great job as always.
These clips don't even begin to scratch the surface of how funny this show is. This was the sitcom we needed, but not the one we deserved.
This is by far the best comedy of all time!!!!!
The bundys went to England once. There was some town that was cursed with eternal darkness that wanted to kill them in their town to break the curse, and there was a town that profited from being neighbors with the dark town that wanted to kill them outside of town to keep the curse going.
♥ When he saw the crowds, he had compassion on them because they were confused and helpless, like sheep without a shepherd.
Matthew 9:36
Oh man this was such a great show while it was on TV. My favorite episode is the one where Marcy's ex husband surprises her by climbing in her bed in the middle of the night not knowing she has another husband. All the while the bundys are watching it happen from their 2nd floor window gigling with glee to see the show thats about to happen. To have both Peg and Al yell they've been blinded when steve and marcy take their top off lmao. Oh man the 80s/90s was a gem of comedy sitcoms.
You nailed it! Back then people could laugh at themselves, without throwing a fit, or protesting! You can't say, or do anything anymore! People get upset, and cry the blues about every little thing! Trust me, those days were special, and much better, in a lot of ways! 👌 So glad I grew up then! I miss those days, but at least I got to live in them! 💪👍
Don't think for a minute people weren't protesting. That's not the point. The real point is, they did this anyways, despite the protests.
I love it when people overseas get introduced to Married with Children.
In Germany the name of the series was: A terribly nice family. It was the series that ran the longest with the most ratings. I was 12 when she first came and threw myself on the floor laughing. His jokes about people with too many pounds on their body or his attitude to life "everything is bad" were awesome. The series didn't do very well in the US. In the Germany of the 90 years it was a hit until 2003 I think. It is said that some seasons towards the end were only filmed for Germany and abroad because they ran so extremely well there. I still like to see you today and I'm really angry that this series will never go on. Animated ones are not an alternative! i want you back God we laughed! Al Bundy and Family back!
Peggy Bundy: "Al do you think these pants give you a big ass"? Al: "Peggy, it's not the pants that make you fat. It's the fat that makes you fat".
I remember the Bundies being on TV in the UK in the early 2000s. It was hilarious!
Al Bundy is SAVAGE!
Funniest show on TV . I am ausie born and bred. I can't help but watch the reruns when ever they are on. Thank you bundies
When the jokes were translated into Spanish, some got lost in the process. But Al Bundy's gestures made him hilarious.
One of my fave episodes is where Al gets the boys over to help with some renovations and one guy gets lost in the walls.
It is a real shame that so many people these days are offended by so many things and have forgotten how to laugh. Thanx very much for sharing this video clip. Hilarious!
Al once scored 4 touchdowns for Polk High in the city championship. He is an American hero.
I'm American and watched this show when it originally aired. It's hilarious!
Ed O'neil actually hated making fun of the actors and being perverted around sexy women. He wasn't comfortable with the roll for years, but he delivered his lines masterfully. He was known to apologize to the women he'd interact with on set. Despite who he played, he is a real gentleman.
Used to watch this show as a kid, it's still the best show I've ever seen. Episodes never got boring, and maintained that quality to the very end. There's so much more in this show to watch, these highlights are less than 1% of what's in it. Amazing show.
Not really, there were definitely some very weak spots, like Seven, and when Marcie and Peg were both pregnant, ug.
When there was a minor public outcry about this show being negative and bringing down the standards of American television and peddling to the least common denominator and all of that crap, they made an episode where Kelly auditions for a Fox sitcom and tells the director about her family. Their anti-Ozzie and Harriet lives wind up inspiring a pretend Fox series that is essentially Married with Children, and the Bundy family loves the show because they can relate. They were trying to say that the reason for the show's success wasn't because it was crude and stupid, but because lots of people have lives that kind of suck, and they can relate to Al, Peggy, and the kids. (S9.E9, if anyone cares)
I watched this show faithfully back in the late 80s early 90s. Al is my Hero ! It always reminded me of Benny Hill type humor, which is another one of favs. 🤣
In my, not so humble opinion, it is definitely worth seeing the entire series!

We will try our best
It's funny that when this show was broadcast in the US in the 90s, my parents would watch the re-runs of Are You Being Served? as it was broadcast on the public broadcasting networks.
I loved watching the show and wished they had carried it a few more seasons. There is no way this kind of show would fly today. It's sad that so many people have lost their sense of humor.
Sure it would
Married with Children was classic American comedy from the 80's and 90's. One of the best shows EVER!
Jenny Craig one I actually burst out in laughter
the Slim Fast one is one of my faves, she was being a total bitch but he only wished her to get better. XD
Greatest TV series EVER!!
The fact that we can't say or do anything these days is the very definition of oppression
You can! Just do it! 😉
@@Hasselroeder Exactly, No one can tell you what or what not to say! Dont even let them think they can. Dont cater to anyone.
