Bunkers Got You Going Bonkers?!?

by LILvoyce Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 200, Apr 24 '01
Pros: All In the Family can be very comical
Cons: This show sometimes deals with racism
All In the Family has been a favorite in my home when I was growing up. I still love watch this show though I do not think that it should be on Nick at Nite, which is a children's channel.

I love watching because Archie who is a hard working...

Glorification or Demoralization?

by samadust , Sep 07 '00
Pros: Conveyed important messages/funny
Cons: ,
Because of this show, Carroll O'Conners face has become synonymous with short-sighted, narrow minded, illogical ways of thinking. He has become a classic icon of Blue Collar America during the 70's displaying a close-minded view of the world being...

Not in my family!

by moneymaker2000 , Nov 17 '00
Pros: Decent show, excellent actors/actresses!
Cons: Can teach kids the wrong things!
All In The Family was the kind of show that you loved to hate but you watched it anyway because the attitude that Archie Bunker had was not unfamiliar to you in this world. I personally didn't like his anti everything type personality but I found it...

My Experience with the Bunkers

by DavidMac Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 500, Sep 04 '01
Pros: Great scripts, brilliant O'Connor and Stapleton performances.
Cons: mean-spirited, Archie's racism will still offend.
In the winter of 1971, a landmark in television history was introduced to an unassuming public. And just a few years ago, a very peculiar "classic" television program appeared on one of our speciality stations, and, therefore, also appearing in my...

Get outta my chair! "All in the Family" is on.

by Chuck_Hansen , Feb 02 '00
Pros: Funny, deep, tightly written, superbly acted comedy and drama that deals with real issues.
Cons: Misunderstood by many.
There are some shows that inhabit a class of their own. Never duplicated, and never successfully imitated, "All in the Family" is one of these.

Archie Bunker, the thick-headed, ill-mannered, old-fashioned, bigoted, cantankerous...

Not Such a Meat Head

by my_mother , Feb 20 '00
Pros: Good Comedy
Cons: A Little Bold for the 70's
I can still remember the first night that Archie Bunker came into our home. We had just finished watching it and were still sitting there in disbelief. We looked at each other and the question on all our lips was "Did they really say that on...

Funny Once But Not So Much Now

by jsmorris Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 1000, Sep 19 '00
Pros: Interaction Between Archie and Mike
Cons: Archie's attitude towards everyone and everything!
I guess I was too young to appreciate the humor of All in the Family, or maybe I was just a rebellious teenager who didn't want to appreciate it, but either way I only watched when forced by my father. Now on the other hand, my parents seemed to...

Highlights our Inequities with Laughter

by AmberM , Sep 23 '00
Pros: Wonderful presentation of all the faults of America, yet done so in a way that will make us not get offended, thus we are more likely to listen to the message.
Cons: The humor detracts the viewer from seeing the brevity of the situations being dealt with
I bet you are thinking, "What can a 20 year old possibly have to say about one of television's classic sitcoms?"

Well let me begin by saying that All In the Family wasnt my prime pick of...

Archie, Edith, Gloria , and Meathead...a great cast!

by BARRY0619 , Jan 22 '00
Pros: Funny
Cons: could be offensive to some
I have always enjoyed watching All in the Family. Obviously, you can imagine how happy I was when TV Land decided to bring the show back on a regular basis. The show was politically incorrect so a show like that , in my opinion, would never survive...

I used to hate this show!

by toniroger , Feb 12 '00
Pros: Powerful images and content included on all the social issues in the 70's.....that still apply today.
Cons: Surface level appears to be about a selfish, egotistical bigot who tries to run his family.
and I often cringe when viewing it now. As a child, I found the characters hard to understand and hard to relate to. I thought the show was about a prejudiced dude who had no clue about how to be a human.

Later, after I did a lot of growing...

Why this is considered a "Kids TV Show" is beyond me.

by Stairway2Drew Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 500, Jun 27 '01
Pros: Edgy and unbeatably clever; Archie is inimitable; incredible cast of characters.
Cons: Carroll O'Conner just died.
In the early, turbulent 1970s, Norman Lear premiered a show based on the British series "Till Death Do We Part". "All In The Family" was originally shied away from by most average viewers. The show was certainly not a family show at the time. No topic...

All in MY Family!

by MoonBeam1965 , Dec 05 '00
Pros: Teaches people not to be prejudiced.
Cons: It ended. (that and Edith died)
Here is a show that I used to watch diligently! I first
started watching it because my father hated it. To me that
was reason enough! My dad always has reminded me of Archie
Bunker with his racist views and his limited vision of the

All In The Family

by VeeZee Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 1000, Dec 23 '99
Pros: Plenty of Humor, Takes A Look At Some of Society's Issues and Encourages Open-Mindedness, Characters Are Unique, "Real", and Engaging
Cons: Some Shows Deal With Serious Issues Like Racism and Discrimination, The Show Has A More Serious Theme At Times
I love this show and am glad that Nickelodeon has brought it to the Nick at Nite lineup. It is a sitcom, but not your run of the mill fluff type of show. In fact, although it will make you laugh, you often forget it's a sitcom because the topics have...

Those were the days

by sweetypeach , Nov 25 '00
Pros: It showed us the problems of bigotry
Cons: Archie never changed his views
During January of 1971 a new family show was first aired,by a live audience for the first time in TV sitcom history. For a thirteen year old teenager, it opened up very contreversal subjects,Vietnam War, womens rights, abortions, birth control,...

Archie the Bigot, Mike the Fruitcake

by millymac Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 1000, Apr 12 '00
Pros: Funny and often relevant
Cons: Archie is horrible; Mike really IS a meathead!
"All in the Family" is a funny show, I cannot deny it. And of course it was never meant to be taken seriously; anybody with a brain can see that Archie and Mike are both jerks, they are just on opposite ends of the political spectrum, and poor...
