I've seen every episode!ð Good timesð
Seems an amazing TV show
His âwifeâ is the voice of Leela in Futurama, btw.
Cheers mate
What a time to be alive.ððð
â@@european-reactsI used to of the show. To be fair, Al takes as much guff as he gives. If he wasn't an awful person, his life might be tragic. But instead, it's just deserved karma, and it's hilarious.
Most of these âoverweightâ women were comedians who helped write the jokes for being overweight.
Not only that, the majority of them were KarensâĶ and if they werenâtâĶ. The series makes clear Al isnât someone to emulate
Exactly what I came here to say. Amanda Bearse (Marcy) also wrote a lot of her own insults too.
If Iâm not mistaken âMarcyâ was producer for a lot of shows
@@amberjones9520 "Marcy" wrote almost all of the "chicken" joke references. She and actor Ed O'Neill (Al Bundy) disliked each other very much in real life. Also, the women who wrote their own fat jokes thought it was a boost to their career to get on the show, and for many, it truly was.
@@gen81465 oh wow I never knew Al and Marcy didnt like each other in real life.
As a Fat person, I can confirm that Fat Jokes are still hilarious, especially the way Al Bundy delivers them.
Never self censor and never apologize for laughing at whatever you find funny. Peace
i agree , just do a Peg Bundy video to even things up for the ladies. In the end we all will laugh
Agreed... there was a time we were able to laugh at ourselves... no one got offended... I miss those days
also never listen to people on the internet
@@LattWestagree!!
Agree!!
What everyone seems to forget is MWC saved the fledgling FOX network from financial collapse. It survived all the attacks on it and allowed more shows to become edgier.
Yep it was not without a reaction and it was impossible not to look. But people were still scandalized by Bart Simpson unironically. I donât say or think that way but no, I canât un-remember the 70-80
I think you could make it. You arenât seeing everyone else and the family dynamics. He was Archie Bunker for the Apocalypse.
Terry Rakolta, while protesting the show, made it more popular than ever. MWC MADE FOX. Then they had the Tracey Ullman show which gave birth to The Simpsons, and the rest is history.
@@markh.7650 it was an active time. They protested Dana Carveys standup show and some movie over the church lady character. Then they were told what they care about and turned their attention there.
It was an incredibly silly time.
Definitely one of the best sitcoms of all time.
For those of us who are 80s kids, Al is a legend. The actor who played him actually grew up in my home town in Ohio and is friends with my cousin.
And was a Pittsburgh steeler...lol.
I'm a woman, don't care if you laugh, this is amazing stuff. I grew up in the 90s and this is what I watched, great times!
Yes ed O'Neil from modern family
Legend!!
This show was done back when people had a sense of humor! Unfortunately today everyone so sensitive and they might get their feelings hurt Today.....ðĪ·ðĪĶ
Jenny Craig was a diet system that a lot of people subscribe to back then.
â@@Sunny-jz3dyIt's mostly white women who are offended.
He once scored four touchdowns in a single game at Polk High
ðð
Hooters hooters, yum, yum, yum. Hooters, hooters on a girl that's dumb.
He had to run over "Spare Tire" Dixon to win the trophy. . . and a second time to reclaim his title.
He played for the Polk High dots.
He did actually try out with the Pittsburgh Steelers in 1969
It was a great series. Al was a working class Dad who peaked in High School - twenty years later, Al is the butt of life's joke. He's stuck in a dead end job, married to his old high school flame turned do-nothing wife with two grifting kids. The showrunners actually took a poll of what people thought was the worst, most demeaning career - that's how Al became a shoe salesman. he was the heart of the show, the underdog that the audience cheered for.
Excellent synopsis.
And despite it all he never cheated on his wife and whenever the family was threatened from the outside, they always had each other's backs.
Did you ever notice that in all of these "loser" comedy shows, the guy who is portrayed as a loser actually has quite a bit of success in life. Al Bundy actually has many moments where he comes out ahead in many episodes. If he was truly such a "loser" the show wouldn't be that funny. No, he isn't a financial winner but he seems to come out pretty well in other ways. Notice the point the writers seem to be making about his neighbor Marcy, who is clearly wealthier than Al and yet is more unsatisfied.
Al Bundy is a legend, one of the most popular shows in Tv history.
That Peg Bundy walk was the greatest.ðĪĢ
Every character in this show was crazy, but crazy in a different way. And they played off of each other for some really good comedy.
His jokes about fat women were actually written by the very women he was insulting. ð
Is that true? ð
Yep 100% true. Most of the women that appeared on the show were comedians.
@european-reacts if I recall correctly, I believe at least a couple of them were script writers for the show, and I've heard the others were comedians, but I'm not sure how accurate that is
Absolutely true Ed O'Neill actually didn't write most of these jokes they were done by the women that he was insulting
@@european-reactsMarcy(chicken lady) directed many episodes. Unfortunately Ed wasnât that much better than Al
If you lived in the US from 87 to 97, you always made a point to watch MWC before bed.
Also, Marcy was the main writer of the show. The lady he constantly bashes. Lol. Those are jokes written by her.
She also directed alot of episodes
Yes! Amanda Bearse is "Marcy", and she's a primary writer of the show and it's jokes!
Best I can remember she didnât start directing until near the end. I loved that show but as with so many others when they bring in a new child character ( wasnât his name like Seven or something similar) after several years you know the show is running on empty. And I never liked the new Buck as well as the original one either. RIP Buck.
Also, most of the Ladies he bashes were comedians who came up with some of the material.
Which is outstanding, since she turned out to be a Hollywood lesbian. Good job.
Not all women are so thin-skinned so this show never bothered me. It's bloody hilarious! My father and I watched this all the time, every episode. Al Bundy had some of the best burns ð Thank you for the nostalgia ð Oh yeah, Slim Fast and Jenny Craig were weight loss foods and drinks. Can't speak to their efficacy, though ð
Jenny Craig was basically a diet plan with a genius capitalist gimmick. If you didn't follow the plan you had to pay more money.
@@vagabondwastrel2361 Ah right, thank you. I couldn't remember anything else about it ð
The best comebacks a man could ever come up with so fast and perfectly timed. We all wish we could do that. Every man on earth wants to have that ability.
This was back in the day when if a show offended you, you didn't watch it.
Preach...
This shows you how sensitive people have gotten because shows like this did pretty well for the most part.
Actually tv was more censored then this show very controversial and calls by parents groups (the same type who push book bans) tried to have it banned the controversial actually helped
See people would tune in to see what the controversy was about as a result the studio on behalf of the actors would send one Pearl clutching prude in particular flowers and a thank you note every year
This was a weekly comedy here in North America. His character was a man that was just plain tired. He was tired of his job, kis kids, his wife, his neighbors. He's just tired. His mouth has no filter and he makes no apology. His "family" was loved as he was..
to make it fair for women viewers , do a reaction video for " Peg Bundy Best insults " ...Al bundy's wife is one of the funniest ppl in tv history. Great video man.
She was also really hot, which makes Al's lack of attraction to her even funnier.
That was the whole point , no matter who you marry , how hot she/ he is, how much money they have or don't have in the end we all face the same challenge, how to stay attracted, how to love & like someone at the same time after all the years together. Can't help but to go UGH " PEG We've been married for 15 years, can't we just be friends? "
Also when it comes to sxx it seems like the roles reverse. In early years the men chase the women we want it all the time but at some point the women just will not take no for answer lol..
PEG - "i don't get it, why all men got so much hair on their bottom? " AL - " that hair is there to keep you off of us at night "
And that is Love & Marriage.
@@user-mg5mv2tn8q
Her hair was a wig she owned and she wore to her audition.
i dont get it why yt always delete my comments? I didnt even say anything bad . if anybody read y last comment on replying to @user-mg5mv2tn8q plz let me know if i went to far? maybe i should of used another word for going to bed with your wife . Yt getting on my last nerve . MAN the pc police r alive & well LOL
she mae me very attracted to redheads lol@@brucenorman8904
Go back and watch Marcys husband every time Al roasts her. Lol hes cracking up hysterically. Thats Jefferson.
Jefferson was much better than Marcy's first husband. Whose name eludes me.
Steve was her first husband
This show came on when you could insult someone and it be taken as a joke. The show aired between 1987-1997
You can watch all of the episodes still today...Married With Children was so popular in the 80s and 90s that it ran for 11 seasons.
I was born in '82. Married With Children was my childhood! We were very poor, and watching this show made me feel better. It always made me laugh. I still occasionally put this show on while I'm doing chores and still find the jokes just as funny. Al Bundy and his 4 touchdowns in one game will always have a special place in my heart ð
This series was on the air for a long time. It's hard not to laugh.
I am a woman and I approve of Al Bundy!!!!
1990's!!!
You mentioned his comedy being easy, but the relatability to the character was deeper than the jokes.
This is how many men his age either were, felt, or wanted to be if it wasnt going to result in a fight. He is relatable because he is the perfect stereotype of the middle aged father who works a dead end job that he hates to provide for his family that he loves, even if he often times doesnt like them.
Go Team Bundy.
"Jenny Craig" had a line of diet food and exercise products..
not allof Al's customers are fat, just the ones he makes fun of and come back to complain.
yes the USA was in love with this show when it was on..
it was kinda like the Simpsons except the Homer wasnt an idiot..
02:57 - Yes, that is the same actor you were thinking of from Modern Family. And, in case you didn't notice, the actress who plays his wife in Married With Children, you might recognize as the voice of mutant character Leela from the cartoon series Futurama.
Also the mom from Son's of Anarchy. Has a great singing voice as well.
And Sons of Anarchy
This was the number 1 show at the time
I've actually one of Al Bundy's replies...and I did it during a wedding.
I was a groomsman, and one of the bridesmaids kept trying to get me to go on a date with her. The bride and groom, being sadistic friends, decided to pair that particular bridesmaid with me for the event - which is one of the reasons they were my friends (we're all more than slightly sarcastic and mildly sadistic toward each other).
At the end of the ceremony, when each bridesmaid and groomsman were coming together to walk down the aisle, the bridesmaid actually said the Peggy Bundy line, "So, did you miss me?"
...to which, without missing a beat, I immediately replied, "With every bullet so far."
The wedding photographer caught the results of this exchange on film, with me smiling and the bridesmaid glaring, and THAT was the photo which the newlywed couple had printed, framed, and mounted above their fireplace.
I have seen every episode. Never missed one. Great memories.
I used to watch it weekly loving every episode! It is hilarious.
Married with children is a show I grew up watching but then again I'm old as hell 44 .
I own the DVD box set. It's still a glorious show to watch especially amongst all of the crap shows out today
I do to and itâs one rare comedy series where each season gets better every year.
MWC is indeed a glorious show, but there is tons of superb TV today. Many have said we are in another golden age of television right now, and I tend to agree. The amount of crap shows that were on the air in the 80s and 90s was massive. We just remember the best of the best.
Married with children was aired from about 1988-89 to 1997-98
That was one of my favorite reactions that youâve done. Just seeing you try not to fully laugh was outstanding. Bravo my friend.
The story is of a guy great in high-school football on his way to a possible college scholarship, but at the "big play" at the state championship flubbed and dropped the ball, leading to the other school winning. AND now how his life has never worked out for the better ever since and he's bitter about it. Absolute great premise. It was the total reverse of all the feel good family sitcoms of the 60's and 70's.
Fox Primetime TV was built on this show. We were not snow flakes like the youngsters today.
Married With Children, In Living Color and The Simpsons was must-see-tv back then.
I miss the old simpsons.@@johnliller
Work of art
I miss this show
I found a box set at wallmart for the cheap
I absolutely loved watching Married With Children, it still makes me laugh. My boyfriend and I use "Hey honey did you miss me? With every bullet so far." as our greeting at least twice a week.
watched it from pilot thru to the end. Since I was in the military for some of that time, I missed and had to catch them on the reruns. Epic series. Never be afraid to laugh at comedy. We have lost the ability to laugh at our selves and with others. Comedy is the purest of poking fun at all things.
Love the content. Married with children is a American classic....
Please stop apologizing... Americans will appreciate it more if your genuine. That's why we have a messed up sense of humor. Keep up the great work.
I grew up watching this show and have always loved it! Al Bundy was and is my role model! ð
Iâm not sure the humor would hit the same way in other countries but I grew up watching All in the Family, M.A.S.H., The Jeffersons, etc. Most gen Z would melt into puddles at the humor from those shows. ð
MASH, the Adams Family, and Beverly Hillbillies re-runs made up much of my childhood TV watching. Oddly, Morticia and Gomez probably have one of the healthiest and modern relationships for a sitcom of that, and this, time.
There are actually about a dozen foreign remakes of the show. Some even used the same scripts as the original and just switched out jokes that were too American specific.
M.A.S.H. was amazing, I'm 33 but grew up watch that and Andy Griffith, Lone Ranger, etc. and 90s Nickelodeon, MadTV, SNL.
His delivery was flawless! This was my Dadâs favorite show and we loved it!!! How he kept a straight face Iâll never understand!
This show was way ahead of its time. It premiered on Fox along with "In Living Color" which was also very funny. They both pushed the limits at the time.
'Jenny Craig' was a weight loss group. 'Hagen Dazs' is ice cream (if you were unaware).
This is the good stuff. Let's get ready to laugh!
Al Bundy was played by Ed O'neill and yes, he was also on Modern Family. Married with Children ran from 1987-1997. It was a great show.
I see Al Bundy, I insta-like! Literally my favorite show of all time.
I watched this show in the 90s, and it's still fun to this day. They delivery is what sells the jokes.
Grew up watching it, it was one of my favorites to watch. It's still being shown on cable.
I always loved this show. It saddens me to know we live in a time we feel we must defend our choices. I thought being human was embracing our differences & learning acceptance.
I appreciate your videos & value your honest reactions. Keep em comin'!
The fact that you laugh very easy makes your comedy reactions so much fun. Please keep it up!
Married With Children ran from 1982 - 1993. The actor is Ed O'Neill and he did star on Modern Family.
The lady with the red hair also voices Leela on Futurama.
This was one of the shows my whole Family watched together, itâs still one of the funniest shows ever made..
I absolutely love al bundy!! I always die of laughter!!
Al Bundy: Ed O'Neill..Fun Fact: He played linebacker for the Lions from 1974 to 1979 and the Green Bay Packers in 1980. In December 2007, after 16 years of training, O'Neill received his black belt. He was in several movies (A great Actor)
The Show was awesome back in the day. Still fun to go back and watch some episodes.
I loved this show. I had such a hard job at the time, and the highlight of my day was getting home and watching Married with Children. The casting was brilliant because they took a serious, classic actor and put him in a sit com. Christina Applegate as the daughter was also stellar casting.
I used to watch this when it was actually on the air. Watched every episode. So frickin funny. The whole shows were funny. People back then had a sense of humor and actually understood what a joke was.
Yes, Al Bundy is played be Ed O'neil, who played the Jay Pritchett in Modern Family.
And Katie Segel plays Peg Bundy, voice of Lela in Futurama.
Jenny Craig is a ompany that provides weight loss programs.
One of my favorite TV shows. I grew up on this classic
This show was beyond well known here. It was the top show for years. Hundreds of millions watching every week.
This show was AMAZING. Definitely watch it if you can. People today are sucky and weak. Embrace comedy. If we can't laugh at ourselves, we end up being soft and critical of others, often unfairly. A big problem western people have today is that they're walking on eggshells to not trigger the woke idiots. Trigger them. Who cares? They're idiots. Do it on purpose by enjoying the content. Don't let them steal your joy. They don't make anything, they just attack. You make enjoyable content. Don't let them control you.
Married with children is one of the longest running tv series in history. Show was on like 20 years.
I herd that Europe has their own version of this show. I wish i could watch it ( with sub titles ) and see the differences . Great show LOL
I think that was the Russian series "Happy Together" that was on for a few years. It was a remake of Married With Children.
Thank you , i will try look it up. I speak a tiny bit of Russian will help me improve @@genghispecan
Europe is a continent with dozens of countries with dozens of languages. Itâs possible one of them made a version. But most watched, and loved, the original.
How can you not know Married With Children, this TV serie was extremely popular throughout Europe in the 80s & 90s and was on re-run for many years in pretty much every western European country. Second to Friends when it comes to how many times it was aired.
Yep, that''s Jay from Modern Family.
Loved this show, must have seen every episode at least a dozen times.
My hubby and I watched all the episodes. Also All In The Family. Two of the best shows ever.
True fact: the original title of the pilot episode was "NOT THE COSBYS", as the show's creators wanted to get as far away from the "Cosby Show" formula as possible (remember the time).
This was a great show! And never apologize for having a sense of humor.
I'm late to finding this but I'll answer your question anyway. Everyone I knew (including myself) LOVED this show at the time. All of the characters are epic. I'm so glad you enjoyed this!
Iconic show. Laughed every episode. Very popular in the US
I love/ loved Married With Children. I grew up on this show. I remember when the show first came out. Iâm Gen X
I family grew up watching Al Bundy and we loved the show till now 2024
The writers of the show wrote the jokes. What makes them great is his delivery. He is an amazing comedic actor.
Ed O'Neill is actually a very nice guy in person. The writing on this show was amazing.
I'm old enough to remember watching this when it was first aired. I have to admit, it took a couple episodes before I found the humor, but it grew on me, and I loved this show. Jenny Craig was indeed a weight loss thing, and the law offices of Hagen-das (I'm sure I'm spelling that wrong) was referring to a popular brand of ice cream.
My kids were raised on this show. How can you not love it
âMarried With Childrenâ was on television in the US from 1987 until 1997. It was extremely popular because nothing this outrageous had even been on American television before, but it also offended a lot of people who tried to get the show stopped.
I am an extremely fat woman and this was hilarious. I grew up in the 80s when people weren't offended by everything. People knew how to laugh at themselves and if they didn't like a particular show or character they simply didn't watch it. Great reaction!
Ed O'Neil plays Al Bundy. He is indeed also in Modern Family. He is from my hometown of Youngstown Ohio. Actually a very nice man.
Ed OâNeill was also signed by the pro football team, Pittsburgh Steelers, in 1969. He was cut from the team while in training camp while competing against âMean Joeâ Greene for a roster spot. Cheers
That was a very popular show and ran for quite a while. Yes, that was Ed OâNiel who played Al Bundy and he was also on Modern Family. These characters would go on to have very succsessful
careers on TV and in Movies. I do believe it could be on these days. I donât think weâre that far gone yet
I am forty five years old and this was one of my favorite shows growing up
I love Married With Children. They have it here in the US on Hulu (and I think other streaming services) and I have the DVD for it and Modern Family. When he got his star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, it was placed in front of a shoe store. When Katey Sagal got her star (she played Alâs wife Peg), they put her star next to his
@EuropeanReacts, yes, Al is played by Ed O'Neil, who is on Modern Family. Meanwhile, his wife, "Peggy," is also the actress Katey Sagal, who does the voice of Lela on "Futurama," for decades now. The wife next door, Amanda Bearse, played the girlfriend in the 1985 horror classic, "Fright Night."
This is what we watched back in the day. Never apologize for finding humor in things. If we can't laugh at life, warts and all, what is the point of living? Don't be afraid of what others think of you. If someone don't like something you find funny, that is a them problem. Not a you problem. Also, if you were to watch the whole series you would see that Al oftentimes got it as good as he gave.
Loved this sitcom when it was on TV.
Married With Children was an AMAZING show.ðĪĢðĪĢðĪĢðĪĢðĪĢðĪĢðĪĢðĪĢ
Great reaction as always.
Yes he also played Jay on modern family.
This show was on in 90âs and Al Bundy was my idol
You are correct, that is Ed O'Neill and his last show was Modern Family with Sofia Vergara as his wife. I used to watch Married with Children, it's funny.
The song for Married with Children is from Singer Songwriter Frank Sinatra great song for this show.
Have you ever heard of Three Dog Night? They have a great catalog of hits
I was in my early teenage years when married with children was on tv I never missed it and still enjoy watching the reruns. If you can find it on streaming itâs worth checking out. He had jokes about The neighbor Marcy about looking like a chicken and definitely had weight jokes and jokes about his family. Yes heâs the man on Modern family.
