@@mysonandme8424 There are the same number and kind of "sensitive people" as always. You have to be literally a child to believe it's new. People tried to get The Simpsons thrown off the air because Bart said something "sucks." They tried to get Elvis Presley banned for swaying his hips. They tried to ban rap and metal in the '80s for using curse words and mentioning reality. And spoiler alert, sometimes they succeeded. Radio or TV affiliates wouldn't play something; or there were warnings played before an episode or song; "explicit lyrics" labels and ratings systems are their doing. Censored versions of songs and TV episodes are their doing. FCC content restrictions are their doing. From decades before you were born. And none of it is logical or ethical in any way, it's just because of their idiotic feelings. So get over yourself. The struggle against stupidity is eternal.
Here’s what people your age seem to miss about these shows. They were revealing the social problems, including racism by showing with humor how stupid racism is!! Archie Bunker was on a journey that ended with him adopting a Jewish niece and he changed because he had the opportunity to interact with people who were different from him. Archie learned to be a better human being because of that. All in the Family wasn’t glorifying or endorsing Archie’s opinions, it resonated with people because they had people in their lives who acted like Archie and it gave people the courage to talk about some of the most and social problems of the day. Thousands of discussions were sparked in families who would sit and watch the show every week. You cannot judge the show by today’s standards. That is just like taking a statement completely out of context which can change the meaning and intent. This was the first show to address racism of all kinds, abortion, homosexuality and even included a cross dressing character who taught Archie a lesson about treating everyone fairly and helped Archie move a little but closer to being a better person. All of these people helped him grow and change,
That character was supposed to be a Drag Queen, not a cross-dresser. Cross-dressers are straight men who like to wear women's clothing for whatever weird reason. Drag Queens are gay men that perform as women for entertainment. Back then though, they called them Transvestites.
I'm 59 and grew up with those shows. None of those 70s and 80s shows should be cancelled in the current day. That's the problem with current culture and TV programming. People are way too sensitive and snowflakey today, and so they just have to cancel every single thing that they don't like. Now Married w/ Children is just mostly crude. It doesn't have any social redeeming value. But I don't have to watch it. I don't need to cancel it.
I think a show like that could exist now if execs weren't afraid of a small vocal group on twitter. I remember this show when I was a kid and it was very popular, people could just take a joke better back then.
Fun fact: Bundy's actor played football and did Broadway. And Marcy wrote a lot of his jokes, as did some of the fat women. Lots of talent in the show.
If you haven’t seen it you need to watch Tim Conway telling the “elephant story” on the Carol Burnet Show. I think it’s one of the funniest bits ever on television.
In the 60s and 70s we could say anything. Women could tell a bawdy joke as well as the men, and we thought it was hilarious. Thats why we had so much fun back then.
Cool reaction! Great Show! This show started in 1987 and run till 1997 and there was 11 seasons! They almost start 12 season but unfortunately it was canceled. And honestly in this video all that insults were just a warm up jokes from Al Bundy the real deal is in the last 3 seasons, there Al Bundy was in his top game, try to watch seasons 9,10 and 11. And not just Al, his son Bud, Kelly, the whole cast goes all in!
When I was in high school, I watched the 2 episodes they would show every morning before I left for school. I thank my dad for getting me into the older shows and movies.
that's not true, Karens existed back then, it was just harder to let people know their complaints, they had to write letters to the channel, today they simply write how they feel on twitter so it feels like there's more of them
Indeed , we knew how to take a joke back then.....It was so funny because it’s an absolute caricature of people you run across in life . Katy Segal and Christina Applegate grew huge careers from this show 🤙🏼 Politically correct ......well, sometimes it’s ok to laugh at yourself LOVED this show 😎
We need this today! There are so many angry people. We can take a joke!!! Maybe the new gen should try it!!! Less depression..😂 Love this show!!!!!❤❤❤❤ It was not controversial. If you didn't like the show... You didn't watch it. Move on.. We fought for FREEDOM. Listen to George Carlin.... Eye Opener 🧐 Why do ypu think we have Rap with cussing?
There was always things that are controversial. The difference then is they didn't get cancelled. Now, they cancel anything for the slightest "offense."
These shows don't try and say everyone is like this, or that anyone should behave this way. The problem the woke crowd would have issues with this is that they think people should not be "allowed" to be like this. A lot of people believe there should be criminal charges for "misgendering". ( I misspelled this and the autocorrect did not have another replacement to offer because like the the new genders, it is totally made up).
Another commenter said that the overweight women you see in the episodes were comedians who wrote all the "fat jokes". Another thing about the show is that it was about all four family members so it wasn't such a concentration of Al insults that you see here.
This show was a riot! I could not believe (at the time) how inappropriate it was. I was young then, but I still knew this, even without my mom screaming at us to "turn the channel." Viewers were angry at how raunchy this show was and insisted it be taken off air. In hindsight, I think that was the whole point of the show. We weren't supposed to learn heartwarming, profound lessons. We were supposed to laugh and appreciate that we aren't as trashy and morally bankrupt as the Bundy family. They say everything we sometimes wish we had the nerve to say!
Married with children ran from April 1987 to May 1998. People consider it more of a 90's show since it ran so long in the 90's and it started so late in the 80's.
Marfied with Children was originally titled Not the Cosby Show or something like that because it was a direct fire on all the goody goody sitcoms up until that point. The Bundy’s were a cartoonish parody of real life. They were the first of their kind & definitely challenged the censors back in 89 when they debuted. One week, a disgruntled lady(known as Karens these days) wrote & complained about the shows vulgarity but it only made the show more popular. They lasted what, about 11 years & at one time was the longest running sitcom in America. I live it & why I don’t fir in today’s weak ass society. Well fighting in Iraq & a two year prison stint also destroyed my filter too.
@@AlastorsShadowDemonI always find it hilarious that people just overlook the staggering difference between then and now. If social media was around back then, it would’ve been just as ridiculous. Satanic Panic? The PMRC? The sensationalism would’ve been no different than it is today.
@@josepharsenault1083 But it wasn’t. And I’m not talking satanic panic. That garnered enough attention on its own. I’m specifically talking people being offended about old shows and “journalists” reporting those complaints once they start making numbers on (the website formally known as) twitter. I don’t think that would have been a thing.
@@AlastorsShadowDemonI understood that. I was simply saying for as much as someone would have made a big deal out of a controversial show- had social media been around back then, there’d be a much stronger argument that people weren’t less offended back then.
He's also really good in the movie, "Dutch." The 70's was a great time, people didn't take things so seriously and we could laugh at ourselves. Alot on SNL wouldn't be allowed today either. The younger generations today are far too sensitive and touchy because they were raised that way, you take things too seriously when it was really just about being to laugh at yourself because noone is perfect!
One of his best lines doesn't appear in any of these "best of" videos: it was an episode in which he ended up on a game show hosted by David Liesure (of "Joe Isuzu" fame), and near the end of the gameshow Al is sandwiched between two mattresses, and the host has fat women jump atop him, one at a time, until they're all atop him, and each tine another woman climbs up, Liesure says "That's one ton!", "That's TWO tons!", etc When all the women are atop Al, he asks Al how he's doing, and Al says "I can taste my spleen!"!!! 🤣😅😂
The show was on TV for 11seasons and was the new Fox networks first sitcom. Back then some parts of the country couldn't even see the show because the new network lacked the affiliate base of other channels. It also didn't have successful shows preceding it to piggyback off of. The fact that this show would be off limits these days shows how much freedom we have lost due to censorship since then..
Try some scenes from the comedy show, In Living Colour. Like Men on...... segments. In Living Colour ( late 80s early 90s) went beyond what Al Bundy did.
Alot of people in the comments saying "everyone's so sensitive these days" ummm...I distinctly remember many organizations protesting certain shows and movies simply because a gay character was shown or there was sex/nudity involved. Quarters of society had always been squeamish. Culture and trends evolve therefore what we complain about evolves as well. Just my take.
Best thing about these jokes are they were written by women. Some of those actresses on the show actually wrote some of them as well. A few of those ladies were comedians themselves.
I'm 69 years old, I lived through the '70s. Everybody no matter what race or gender back then and a sense of humor and it was way less racism as long as it was comedy. We weren't taught to get in touch with our feelings in school we were taught how to survive in the real world. You two guys are missing good times in your youth cuz everybody is so sensitive because their brainwashed
I believe what I’m about to say took place in ‘97. I was 14, and I enjoyed watching Married With Children-own every episode actually. Well a particular episode aired about Al trapped in a cabin (?) because of a snowstorm (??). Idk exactly. But what I do remember is Marcy, his wife Peg, and daughter all had their periods at once. Episode was funny as hell, although a particular woman--first Karen??- didn’t see it this way. Basically she raised hell, people hated her, and it made Married With Children more popular than ever
The controversy at the time the show was airing was the raunchiness , not the PC aspect. At the time, the PC stuff was only to be found amongst the lunatics in women's studies.
some women tried to cancel married with children over the episode "her cups runneth over" for the lingerie parts... they ignored her trying to cancel them an the show got even bigger as a result, for for every year the show ran thereafter the cast and/or production of married with would send her a gift basket for trying to cancel the show and making it so much more popular as a result.
This was on FOX network. In late 1980s, FOX came in as a fresh alternative to the three networks by scheduling shows that were out of the mainstream. The Simpsons later premiered on this network.
still a favourite of mine, this show was hilarious. As offensive as it was to a lot of people it was a big hit in late 80's and most of 90's. Some of the shows of today would not be allowed in the 70's, the foul language and some nudity was a no-no back then. I remember it was a big deal if a show had words like damn or shit in it. The Simpsons which started around the same time as married with children, would of been non existent in early 70's, appalling to the masses because of Bart 's character in particular ( a kid allowed to talk so rude), but was a hilarious show that i enjoyed when i could.
All these amazing actors from the 60s - the 80' maybe some 90's had the amazing gift of making the audience laugh at themselves . Now days the people are super hypersensitive like spoiled crybabies who went and constantly tattletaled on every single time anybody said or did anything that didn't meet their approval. This world is full of spoiled babies who now carry the title of narcissist and Karens. Y'all need to lighten up and enjoy life . Be happy no matter what life throws at you . Let the comedy be a lesson on how to enjoy the funny
The reason Al Bundy and mean characters like that were able to get away with things like this is because they always got their come uppances. What they don't show in these clips is later when he would get his. Usually Marcy would bust him or Peg and the kids would ruin his fun or in one episode a coalition of the over weight women tied him up. His life was always bad and he never , ever won. Except when he scored 4 touchdowns n a single game in high school of course! Same with Louis De Palma on Taxi. That's what's missing in today's characters. Sheldon Cooper is terrible to his friends and gets away with it. He's a bully. Al was once sent to Hell but the devil sent him back because his suffering was worse in the real world, lol! And yet, this guy never cheated on his wife and never ran out on his kids. Who by the way were all terrible!
The TV show that built the FOX network. The critics hated Married With Children . People loved it. All In The Family was making fun of Archie Bunker, and we all knew it.
It wasn't just a show with outrageous jokes. That wouldn't last long. In thecsetup of the show Al was a high school football star and Peg was the popular girl. They were the top of the high school food chain. Then they learn that high school is not real life. They are not the popular, successful people in the real world. Thevother aspect is that as much as the family fights, they love each other and will fightvanyboutside attacks on any family member.
You should do the Jeffersons especially early seasons. Sanford and son, and yes all on the family. That show had several spinoff. You can do good times to. Post stop worrying about what's popular. Worrying about what's good. People care to much about what everyone else likes.. set the trend don't worry about following it.
Back in the day, if we didn't like something, we just didn't watch/listen to it. Pretty simple. Hopefully soon we'll move past all this "feelings" bullshit.
The reason that show was so popular is because secretly a lot of guys can identify with Bundy, or we know someone like him. Here's a guy that wakes up every morning, goes to work in a dead end job he hates, and then goes home to a domestic situation that is something short of bliss. Al takes the opportunities when they come along to flip the bird to the world.
You fellas do realize we are dealing with the same crap today as then? What made the time great was the fact that we had been allowed to laugh about it and make open fun of the stupid crazy of the times. We have far more messed up crud today than way back then and nobody is allowed to just Laugh about it.

still a favourite of mine, this show was hilarious. As offensive as it was to a lot of people it was a big hit in late 80's and most of 90's. Some of the shows of today would not be allowed
in the 70's, the foul language and some nudity was a no-no back then. I remember it was a big deal if a show had words like damn or shit in it. The Simpsons which started around
the same time as married with children, would of been non existent in early 70's, appalling to the masses because of Bart 's character in particular ( a kid allowed to talk so rude), but
was a hilarious show that i enjoyed when i could.
That was funny and a lot of those women were comedians.
Make NO MA'AM great again ! ✊🏼
Al vs Marcy, Martin vs Pam, Thelma Harper vs Naomi on Mama’s family- those were rivalries
All these amazing actors from the 60s - the 80' maybe some 90's had the amazing gift of making the audience laugh at themselves . Now days the people are super hypersensitive like spoiled crybabies who went and constantly tattletaled on every single time anybody said or did anything that didn't meet their approval. This world is full of spoiled babies who now carry the title of narcissist and Karens. Y'all need to lighten up and enjoy life . Be happy no matter what life throws at you . Let the comedy be a lesson on how to enjoy the funny
No, there are too many pansy asses who get offended about everything. I LOVED blond jokes, and I "was" a natural blond back in the day.
The reason Al Bundy and mean characters like that were able to get away with things like this is because they always got their come uppances. What they don't show in these clips is later when he would get his. Usually Marcy would bust him or Peg and the kids would ruin his fun or in one episode a coalition of the over weight women tied him up. His life was always bad and he never , ever won. Except when he scored 4 touchdowns n a single game in high school of course! Same with Louis De Palma on Taxi. That's what's missing in today's characters. Sheldon Cooper is terrible to his friends and gets away with it. He's a bully. Al was once sent to Hell but the devil sent him back because his suffering was worse in the real world, lol! And yet, this guy never cheated on his wife and never ran out on his kids. Who by the way were all terrible!
"Al Bundy vs Marcy" and "Al Bundy Chicken Jokes" and "Al Bundy How Was Your Day" are good compilations to check out.
It was hilarious!
Love Al Bundy!
yet in all these scenes there wasn't a shred of misogyny, "fat shaming" maybe, but in his defense they were all sloppy
One of my favorite shows! ❤
Again the 70s and 80s kids weren’t wusses and could enjoy comedy
The TV show that built the FOX network. The critics hated Married With Children . People loved it.
All In The Family was making fun of Archie Bunker, and we all knew it.
Shows like that exist today. Just outside crazy US.
It wasn't just a show with outrageous jokes. That wouldn't last long. In thecsetup of the show Al was a high school football star and Peg was the popular girl. They were the top of the high school food chain. Then they learn that high school is not real life. They are not the popular, successful people in the real world. Thevother aspect is that as much as the family fights, they love each other and will fightvanyboutside attacks on any family member.
Bundy !!! My hero !
I read somewhere that the original working title for Married With Children was originally called "Not The Cosby's".
Redd Foxx was one of the most popular Black comedians ever back in the day!! He was famous for many decades! His albums was good too!
You should do the Jeffersons especially early seasons. Sanford and son, and yes all on the family. That show had several spinoff. You can do good times to. Post stop worrying about what's popular. Worrying about what's good. People care to much about what everyone else likes.. set the trend don't worry about following it.
So many funny memories 😄 ❤💯
Peg: did you miss me
Al: with every bullit so far
I am still on the Al Bund’s mode and screw who doesn’t like it, simple just don’t cross my way pray you don’t.
Very good show! A legend!!!!
Back in the day, if we didn't like something, we just didn't watch/listen to it. Pretty simple. Hopefully soon we'll move past all this "feelings" bullshit.
👏👏👏
Not a sitcom, but legendary. George Carlin.
Even better, Brad Stine
The reason that show was so popular is because secretly a lot of guys can identify with Bundy, or we know someone like him. Here's a guy that wakes up every morning, goes to work in a dead end job he hates, and then goes home to a domestic situation that is something short of bliss. Al takes the opportunities when they come along to flip the bird to the world.
Humor is supposed to be controversial.
So many of those who cry loudest cannot laugh at themselves.
So glad to see y'all again 😊
We're glad to be back! - Joe
You fellas do realize we are dealing with the same crap today as then? What made the time great was the fact that we had been allowed to laugh about it and make open fun of the stupid crazy of the times. We have far more messed up crud today than way back then and nobody is allowed to just Laugh about it.
Well I agree, but you nor I need anyone's permission to laugh about anything.
Redd Foxx and Richard Pryor, yes please. Damn.
Wellcome back, Kotter. Good times, what’s happening
We just were not so sensitive like people are today..You can thank social media for that...
