    Archie's chair is in the Smithsonian! YES Queens accent! 704 Hauser Street, Queens, NYC. Archie was a Longshoreman, a loading dock union man! Working class. Mike Meathead was a college boy!

  • @scottNNJ
    @scottNNJ 9 місяців тому +32

    Yes, that is Archie’s chair. He is very protective of that chair, and nobody else is allowed to sit in it - with few exceptions.
    “Meathead” is Archie’s pet name for his son-in-law, Mike. He calls him meathead because, as he says, Mike is “dead from the neck up”.
    I think that accent is an old one that has since faded from use - when I was growing up in the late 70s, an older gentleman that lived next door had the same accent. A few days ago, his granddaughter (who remembered us playing as kids) reached out to me, out of the blue, on Facebook to see if I was that kid. Nice surprise.

      It's sad that accents are mostly disappearing because of hearing people with a regular "American accent' that they hear on TV etc. Or that they need to be more accepted at their jobs in some cases. There's a good UA-cam video called "American Tongues" that I first watched in the early 80s that has people speaking in their accents at the time.

    That was so sweet and fun. I do kind of remember a lot of these from when I was a little kid. We didn't watch a whole lot of TV when we were that young but there were a handful of shows my parents have boxed and this was one of them. My mom liked the message of it and my dad liked the situational comedy of it.

    Archie's chair is so symbolic of "Who his character represented in America" & the ground-breaking significance of him speaking openly in public for the 1st time on national TV about the America's growing & volatile social issues like; racism, women's rights, gender roles in the workplace, religion, & the ongoing War in Vietnam to list a few.
    His chair grew to become a 'Hallmark' of the cultural awakening of 1960's & 70's in America, so much so, that it now sits in a place of honor in the Smithsonian Institute in Washington D.C.
    Merry Everything & Happy Always

    BRITT: Because of your beautiful youth, it's difficult for you to appreciate how primed America was for All in the Family when it originally aired - massive Vietnam War protests, Watergate, LSD & the hippie revolution when sayings like "Make Love. Not war," John Lenon & The Beatles' song, "Give Peace a Chance," were popular, etc. Also, notice how much greater of an actor Carroll O'Connor was than Rob Reiner (Meathead) and Sally Struthers (Gloria) were.

    Yes that is how beer cans looked back in the early 1970's. Cans back then were made from steel. They weren't as easy to crush as these that are made from aluminum. Sometimes during the mid 1970's they started changing the cans from steel to aluminum. We used to step on the middle of the can and make it collapse onto our shoes and we would walk around making noise with that can on our shoes. The aluminum can was softer and lighter and would not stay on your shoes as long.

I've never found any shows since that made me genuinely laugh the way these shows do !!!...I think Jr Highs and High Schools should have a class where they watch these shows and teach these kids how to laugh again .. at themselves and eachother .. laughter brings ppl together... if you can laugh together.. you can love together ❤.. the world stopped being fun when everyone decided to get butthurt so easy...I'm so glad I grew up in a generation that making fun of someone and laughing meant we liked each other❤

    I am reminded of Frasier’s widower dad Martin on the sitcom Frasier. After he is shot in the line of duty he goes to live with his persnickety son in his condo. He brings his dog and his green and orange striped easy chair, which has a few patches of duct tape. Martin’s chair holds so many memories of the last 20+ years. He was sitting in it when he learned that he was a grandfather.

    Rob Reiner ( the Meathead ) is the son of the late, iconic tv/movie actor, comedian, producer, Carl Reiner, whose career spanned 7 decades. He is perhaps best known for producing ( & playing an occasional role in) the wildly popular Dick Van Dyke show in the early 60's. One of his funniest scenes was when the Mary Tyler Moore character went to his office to apologize for accidentally making public the fact that he was bald. (His character was a tv comedian, & Mary's husband was one of his writers). The scene is probably on 'the tube'. Cheers!

    Archie had a way of mangling the English language. Some of his classics were:
    Groinocologist = Gynecologist
    Expensive care = Intensive care
    Medicure = Medicare
    Misconscrewed = Misconstrued
    Archie's chair was such a part of American TV culture that it now sits in the Smithsonian in Washington DC

    My Grandpa had his Chair and my Dad had his Chair. I don't know where or how she grew up but it was like that for a lot of years and still is in many households. Archie was very popular because he somewhat represented millions of blue collar working men and his logic was often very sound.

    Now listen little goyl 😉, Archie’s chair was so infamous, it is in the Smithsonian as a tribute to All in the Family and its impact on TV and their audience. Archie was truly an American gem.

    Britt, what you have to understand about Archie is that he's a semi-educated bigot (not an outright racist). He grew up in a time when segregation was very prevalent. When the series began, we didn't know exactly how old Archie was, but there's an episode in Season 1 where Archie celebrates his 50th birthday, so that nailed it down. He was born in the early 1920s, lived through the Great Depression and WWII, Korea, and Vietnam was raging when the show debuted. IIRC, he never even made it into High School (still speaking of the character, not the actor, who was in real life, the exact opposite of Archie), because like many people of that era, they had to try and work to help support their families at a young age. So, Archie's level of education was probably topped out in 8th grade. His "social standing" was hard earned, and he had limited exposure to "others", so his opinions were formed on what he was taught by others.
    He had no problem using certain words that would be highly shunned, now. He also had a "foil" in his black neighbor George Jefferson. An equally bigoted and opinionated man who built his own business (dry cleaners) from the ground up. Their interactions are absolute comedy GOLD. The two men's wives and children are all very good friends, but they themselves are constantly in conflict. "The Jeffersons" would spin off into their own show, which was also highly successful. In fact, All in the Family would have numerous successful spinoffs, including Maude and Archie Bunker's Place.
    Over the years, Archie WOULD mellow quite a bit, and learn that many of his bigoted beliefs were in fact, wrong. If you haven't seen it yet, the time Sammy Davis Jr. cameoed as himself was hysterical! Highly recommend that. But also, you should watch full episodes, many are available here on UA-cam.

      Black people didn't get offended by the show because they were used the opinions of people like Archie. The television show pointed out the racism and buffoonery of those type people and that's where the laughs came from.
