All In The Family
Welcome to the All In The Family Guide at TVRage All in the Family was both a controversial and groundbreaking show, which debuted as a mid season replacement on CBS January 12, 1971. It became a most influential show in television history and made a impact, changing American TV standards forever. All in the Family was a pioneer in changing TV satire into a more realistic, frank and hard hitting piece of entertainment. This comedy revolves around Archie Bunker, a hard nosed, bigoted blue-collared working man and his family. He makes no bones about his racial, religious and political views. His wife Edith is a ditsy, subservient woman whom he refers to as 'dingbat,' provides a perfect balance to Archie's harsh demeanor, by being sweet and affectionate to all. Their daughter Gloria and her college-student husband Mike also reside there. The verbal sparring usually comes from Mike, or 'Meathead' as Archie calls him. Their neighbors, The Jefferson's and their liberal son Lionel, also provide their share of angst with Archie. George Jefferson is the black version of Archie, and soon had a spin-off show called The Jeffersons. After the season nine, Gloria and Mike had left the show, heading off to California. The show continued on as Archie Bunker's Place, focusing now on Archie's bar and included a new character, Edith's niece Stephanie. One more spin-off would occur in the show Gloria, in which she and Mike are now divorced and she, along with son Joey, have moved away and begun working for a veterinarian. Click to hear theme song
