Product Description:
Those were the days. Norman Lear’s landmark comedy featured one of the most beloved families in television history the Bunkers. Starring Carroll O’Connor as Archie Jean Stapleton as Edith Rob Reiner as Mike “Meathead” Stivic and Sally Struthers as Gloria “All In The Family” remains an Emmy庐 Award-winning treasure. Watch this ground-breaking first season for yourself and just try to stifle your laughter!Disc One: Episodes 1-4Disc Two: Episodes 5-8Disc Three: Episodes 9-13Format: DVD MOVIE Genre: TELEVISION/SERIES & SEQUELS Rating: NR UPC: 043396004054 Manufacturer No: 00405

With a new time slot (8:00 p.m. Saturdays) and three first-season Emmys庐, All in the Family was primed for greatness, and these 24 episodes represent the series at its best. Carroll O’Connor leads the perfect cast as blue-collar bigot Archie Bunker, and the standout classic is “Sammy’s Visit,” in which black, Jewish rat-packer Sammy Davis Jr. visits the Bunker home, where he’s hilariously horrified by Archie’s prejudicial ignorance. The script was written by comedian Bill (”Jos茅 Jiminez”) Dana, and to borrow Archie’s phrase, it’s a pip, as Sammy turns Archie’s racist remarks on their ear to the delight of young liberals Gloria (Sally Struthers) and husband Mike (Rob Reiner). Sammy’s parting kiss on Archie’s cheek is one of the series’ all-time highlights. Then there’s Burt Styler’s Emmy-winning script for “Edith’s Problem,” in which Archie’s “Dingbat” wife experiences the mood swings of menopause (another first, along with impotence in “Mike’s Problem,” in the series’ taboo-busting candor). A showcase for Jean Stapleton (who deservedly won her second consecutive Emmy), it also demonstrates (as does “Archie and Edith Alone”) the hurtful repercussions of Archie’s unintentional cruelty. Edith’s Archie-baiting cousin Maude (Bea Arthur) is introduced (”Maude” is a pilot for the character’s spin-off sitcom, which premiered in ‘72), and credit must be given to John Rich, who directed all 24 episodes (winning an Emmy for “Sammy’s Visit”) with a flawless sense of ensemble chemistry, precision timing, and lasting political relevance. This season earned seven Emmys overall, including awards for O’Connor and Struthers. Given such a wealth of sitcom glory, it’s a shame these DVDs are devoid of retrospective features. –Jeff Shannon

- #1 In The Ratings, and funnier than the first season too!
All In The Family’s second season was the first to top the US TV ratings, with around 21.1 million households tuned in to CBS on Saturday nights. In this season (1971/72), Norman Lear’s second comedy would premiere, NBC’s Sanford and Son, which ranked #6.
Anyways, to the episodes (NOTE - episodes are in airdate order).
1. The Saga Of Cousin Oscar (18/9/71): Archie’s Cousin Oscar has come to stay at the Bunker house and is driving Archie mad by hogging the facilities. Archie … Read More

- Great TV Show and Hilarious Too!
This is truly a classic season of a classic TV show. Archie is the a real racist and sexist to boot. Nixon is the president for him and he is a loyal patriotic American who backs up the national anthem without knowing the words himself or voting for 30 years. The Jeffersons are still in this season and Maude is introduced. I think that the beginning of the season is funnier than the end. Archie the racist is funnier than Archie the sexist and Jean Stapleton is the perfect foil for Archie. Rob Reiner … Read More

- Love this Show
One of the best shows in the history of television - it’s sad that a show like this could never be made today because of “Political Correctness”. The storyline of each episode is still relevant today - nothing changes in thirty-plus years.
If you’re too young to remember this show it may take you by surprise with the use of language. It’s also a relief to have actors that aren’t the typical beauty standard that infests Hollywood now. If you vaguely remember the show, get it and relive what … Read More
