Both Carroll O'Connor and Bea Arthur were experts in facial expressions, check out how many times Archie and Maude have close ups in their respective TV shows.
@@brentfarvors192 True. But Archie continued to support 'Richard E Nixon' even after he got busted. There was one episode in, I think, 1976 where Mike thinks Archie wrote in Nixon in the '76 election and and Edith asks him if its true. He said he just said it to rile Mike and that he really wrote in Reagan (who had lost the primary to Ford)! LOL Then in an episode of Archie Bunker's place Archie buys drinks for the bar and someone says the last time he did that was when Nixon won re-election. Mr. Van Ranseleer, says 'my God is he running again?' Archie says 'no; never again poor man!'
My grandparents lived in the same part of Queens where the show took place. I loved it because these were my grandparents and their friends. I knew these characters.
Tell it to other marines like the following: Luke Duke, Cordell Walker, Stanley Wojihoewicz, Rick Simon, Tom “Gunny” Highway, Gomer Pyle, and Mort Metzger.
If only instead of staying in Tuckahoe to run his appliance store, Walter should have tagged along in order to say things like, “Maude, sit!” Or better still, “Archie’s chair is not the chair that you should sit in, Maude! Why don’t you take that nice wooden one over there by the banister instead since it’s more your type anyway!”
So what if FDR saved our nation by dumping us into WW2? He was also brave enough to take a stand against those maniacs Hitler, Mussolini, and Hirohito. However, if the psychic Edgar Cacey had warned FDR about MacArthur planning to invade Manchuria during the Korean War, it wouldn’t come as no surprise to me if FDR left instructions behind for Harry S. Truman to fire MacArthur, which is no wonder why Ike Eisenhower got elected and now we’re stuck with certain limitations such as: congressional district representatives will be selected only according to the population of each state, each state will be limited to just two U.S. senators, and only two consecutive terms for every candidate who runs for the office of U.S. President. It’s like that fool law that Tennessee had for years limiting the term of a county sheriff to two years per term and three consecutive terms only, which prevented Sheriff Buford Pusser from finishing the job of ridding his jurisdiction of McNairy County of the state line crowd.
Once back in Tuckahoe, Maude had a lecture waiting for her from next door neighbor Dr. Arthur Harmon who told her, “You had no right to sit in the chair of Mr. Bunker at all! Besides, I think that maybe I’d like to meet up with him one of these days”
I worked at an general aviation airport in 1971 and every tuesday night we'd order Navarro's pizza and watch All in the family and laugh our ass's off so much fun those were the day's!!
I thought either George Jefferson, and/or Louise's brother, when he was pretending to be George, sat in it. I don't know if Louise's brother challenged Archie, but I'm almost positive, George did.
But he was at least kind enough to allow Sammy Davis, Jr., the honor of sitting in the chair, and he would also have done the same thing for The Duke himself John Wayne.
Which resulted in it winding up in an art exhibit all because a careless assistant of a repair man allowed the artist to take the chair away while his boss stepped out for a cup of coffee ☕️?!
This scene is the only non-negotiable item on my “what if you were trapped on a desert island and could only bring 3 things” list. This is why acting was once a “Calling” not a job. Just. So. Beautiful. It inexplicably makes me miss myself. And my Dad.
This is, like, my seventh time watching this video because it's just hilarious. I enjoy watching Archie and Maude go at it like this. This is so entertaining! 🤣🤣🤣
Legend has it that on the night after they taped this episode, the police came and actually arrested Bea Arthur on the charges of STEALING THE SHOW... 😎👍
So Richard Nixon hated the only man in the nation who supported him the most?! Obviously it looks like he too failed to listen between the dialogue, let alone read between the lines?! So it was no wonder that the fans were lucky enough to catch the show during summer reruns under the circumstances of the dilemma?!
@@LindaCooper-i3f Haha. Archie Bunker was a fictitious TV character that everybody laughed at for his conservative viewpoints, usually supported with erroneous info. Nixon spent his entire Presidency trying to be liked and taken seriously. He looked at the show as a bitter parody of the values he believed in, and considered the Bunker character a poor example of support. You weren't around then. People didn't tune into this show so that they could talk the next day at work about how virtuous Archie is. People laughed at his antics and loved the characters. Things then were truly, truly different than they are today. And these comment section entries are proof of that.
Actually, I feel that “THE HONEYMOONERS” are much lower in rank because you got the following sitcoms that come right after “ALL IN THE FAMILY”: “THE JEFFERSONS”, “GOOD TIMES”, “MAUDE”, “HAZEL”, “THE ANDY GRIFFITH SHOW”, “GOMER PYLE, USMC”, “MAYBERRY R.F.D.”, “MAMA’S FAMILY”, “CHARLES IN CHARGE”, “MY LITTLE MARGIE”, “I MARRIED JOAN”, “HAPPY DAYS”, “BLOSSOM”, “MORK & MINDY”, “WKRP IN CINCINNATI”, “LAVERNE & SHIRLEY”, “THE FLYING NUN”, “ONE DAY AT A TIME”, “GIDGET”, “NANNY & THE PROFESSOR”, “MY MOTHER THE CAR”, “THE ADDAMS FAMILY”, “SANFORD & SON”, “THE MUNSTERS”, “GREEN ACRES”, “SOAP”, “BEWITCHED”, “MY 3 SONS”, “FAMILY AFFAIR”, “THE GHOST & MRS. MUIR”, “THE NANNY”, “THE JIMMY STEWART SHOW”, “PETTICOAT JUNCTION”, “JULIA”, “GILLIGAN’S ISLAND”, “BENSON”, “THE FARMER’S DAUGHTER”, “CAR 54, WHERE ARE YOU?”, “THE BEVERLY HILLBILLIES”, “AMEN”, “THE GOLDBERGS” (with the late actress Gertrude Berg as Molly Goldberg), “227”, “MISTER ED”, “BURNS & ALLEN”, “THE DICK VAN DYKE SHOW”, “MARY TYLER MOORE”, “MR. BELVEDERE”, “RHODA”, “DIFF’RENT STROKES”, “PHYLLIS”, “BARNEY MILLER”, “THE FACTS OF LIFE”, “ALICE”, “3’S COMPANY”, “LOVE AMERICAN STYLE”, and “THE HONEYMOONERS”, which is just the tip of the iceberg.
Try picturing the possibility of Archie finding himself getting into a car through the window, especially if the car in question is the greatest 1969 Dodge Charger of them all, the General Lee of Hazzard County?!
That argument between Archie and Maude was a classic moment in television. Archie: No! That's a lie! General MacArthur won that war and Roosevelt fired him for it! Maude: That was Truman! Archie: Under secret sealed orders from FDR! That one always cracks me up! Of course FDR had been dead for six years when Truman fired MacArthur after one too many clashes over the Korean war.
How about the one in which Archie says, “Just hold it right there! Leave me out of that! Leave it to a Heeb to charge admission to his own bachelor party! What’s he going to do, sell tickets to the wedding?!” Walter replies, “He’s all yours, Maude!”
Exactly! I remember, as a kid, while watching the show, I never thought it was funny. I felt angry at Archie because he's such a bigoted dunce (was too young to appreciate his good side). Archie reminded me of my stepfather, who I loved. But I really disliked that ignorant racist side of stepdad.
Growing up as a kid I watched this with my grandparents, it was this and the Jeffersons and the Maude when it came on. Norman Lear produced ground breaking tv and groundbreaking conversations with this show. I think back to the questions I would have after a episode, and the talks I had with my grandparents ( who didn't know they were very liberal as the word wasn't used yet lol) Today? this show would be too controversial.
My favorite part of this episode - other than this brilliant, brilliant scene - is when Maude served Archie cream of wheat with cheese. “It’s light but it binds.”
Well, be that as it may, by the end of the episode, Maude was sick, too. Besides, she should have heeded Archie’s advice in telegram telling her to stay the H-E-Double-Toothpicks away. However, since it’s Maude’s own fault that she got sick from taking care of them, Archie probably had Maude using the cot in the attic that Cousin Oscar used when he visited Archie and died on them?!
All in the Family launched so many other shows, Jefferson's, Maude, Good Times off of Maude, Archie Bunkers Place, Gloria, 704 Houser Street. They were going to do a show of the Next door neighbors, Frank and Irene but it never took off.
IMMORTAL IN PERPETUITY!! All In The Family still resides at the Pinnacle of Television Comedy. Nowhere is that more "Perfectly Clear," to paraphrase Richard E. Nixon, than in this timeless episode. Played to perfection by Bea Arthur, Cousin Maude is Archie Bunkers Bogey Man. Or Bogey Woman in this case. Only this monster doesn't do him in right away. She slowly tortures him to death!! If there is a more perfect example of Fire and Gasoline in a show, it has yet to be seen. Bea Arthur should have been on this show at least once a month. Like a returning plague!! Her comedic talents in this show and later Maude and The Golden Girls, were anything but that. We were only plagued by not getting enough of her wicked sarcasm. Even Archie Bunker was made to suffer in dumb anguish. Much to our delight.
02:14 "We GOT civil war, Maude. We got riots in the streets." So true. And it has nothing at all due to the "poverty and unemployment" BS Maude tries to spew.
@@LindaCooper-i3f That's true, but in his last years as President, which was because of stress of the war. FDR wasn't too skinny in his earlier presidency.
@user-wi6sh6vh8u Oh no, Roosevelt had that belly in there somewhere. He did drank after all, and there are plenty of pictures of him smoking. In fact, that partly contributed to his death.
Sorry, but that was Archie's house, yet Edith's relatives were the most disrespectful bunch. If anyone treated me like that in my residence, I would promptly kick them out.
@@superstarreviews9937 and she could have being married to Archie. Maude wasn't disrespectful nor was any of Edith's family like Atlantic claimed above. It's Edith's house too because they are married, regardless of whether she is employed or not.
Damn! That sounded a lot like my late mother. Her parents hated Rosevelt. They believed that he let Japan attack just so they could enter the war. They also believed that he sold out to Stalin. They used to call him Crooked Legs.
I just posted this comment as well (see above) And FDR stole everyone's gold as well in March 1933! Read executive order 6102. Under penalty of fine and imprisonment E/O 6102 compelled citizens to turn in their gold coins for $20 per ounce in return for Federal Reserve Notes (paper). The next year (1934) gold was revalued at $35.00 an ounce effectively a 40% devaluation in their "fiat" dollars. Same 1 oz gold coin today, about $2,000! Archie forgot to include that ""little point" in his rant to Maude. Nonetheless really funny clip...
@@megabladechronicles962 FDR was also funding the Bolsheviks. His vice president, Henry Wallace, was communist. And FDR, together with churchill, gave eastern europe to stalin. Thus actually proving hitler right when he was warning of the impending marxist revolution with FDR and Churchill allowing the communists to invade. Even George Patton wanted to help the Germans fight the communists. "We defeated the wrong enemy"--- G. Patton
At least he was right in prohibiting privatized ownership of gold bullion because he realized that gold was the only true security behind the value of the dollar. Then after about 37 years, Nixon refused to renew the 1934 Gold Reserve Act of FDR. If that law was still enforced to this day, we wouldn’t have all the inflation of the 1970s and 1980s attacking us with a vengeance. H-E-Double-Toothpicks, we need to get the 1934 Gold Reserve Act of FDR back on the books, law wise that is!
"Eleanor was always runnin' around with the coloreds...before her, we didn't even know they was there!" :P!!!! so funny! Back then you could say anything and even blacks didn't take offense. They saw this show as funny!
For example, he was being alphabetical when he said that prior to God allowing a black President into the White House that he would probably have to test it out on the rest of the world by ordaining a black Pope.
I never watched Maude just because my grandma didn’t care about watching,such as The Golden Girls,same for my family the only reason Maude was instresting is when she’s Archie’s Cousin,I didn’t really think she was just what Norman Lear had based himself to be if he was a woman named,Maude & a part where she was a bit based from one of his wives,I grew up with mostly Archie Bunker in All In The Family,& Archie Bunkers Place & Good Times,I forgot over the years,All In The Family was not in my head anymore,The Humor,The Emotion & Edith’s Singing,there was still some good humor around until anyone got all into 100% no humor,Even their Edgy Humor is not funny at all,it’s like it’s gross & just 100% plain stupid as Usual,I saw one comment in a Edgy Dark Humor Video,A typical stupid person maybe my age? Said they loved how their humor and others evolved that way 🙃 when it’s Devolved Humor,I don’t always understand Archie as much but I’m older now & I can think to research what he all meant in most episodes and seasons,this episode with Maude is one of my favorites,& maybe I might just watch,Maude too just because she did great in this episode!!! 😄
Try imagining the possibility of her in a verbal confrontation with Winslow County deputy sheriff, Sergeant Beauregard Wiley and Atlanta PD Officer Wilhameinha Johnson aka The Fox; for brains instead of vanity, after they have given Walter a speeding ticket? Remember that this is the very same Sergeant Wiley as played by the late actor Slim Pickens that had run-ins with Milwaukee born independent semi trucker B.J. (Billie Joe) McKay as portrayed by Greg Evigan in the classic 1979-81 NBC adventure comedy series of “BJ & THE BEAR”?!
Was lucky & blessed to have had an article published years ago titled "The Real Final Four." Would've rubbed Maude's nose in the irrefutable truths contained therein, philosophically destroyed the Liberal Ideology, & Archie would have had the advantage for as long as he breathed. Archie...Archie...Archie...wish you'd have reached out to me, Brother! LOL
Carroll O'Connorr was extremely liberal & played Archie as a dope who was rarely ever right. But he got fan mail from stupid people such as you who thought he was intelligent.
The actual liars of the Oval Office were and still are to this date as follows: Herbert Hoover, Lyndon Baines Johnson, Richard Nixon, Ronald Reagan, George Bush (Sr. and Jr.), and Donald Trump.

That should be said about Sesame Street since 1998 being watered down because of Elmo being overdone because of the 1990 death of Jim Hensen O.K!!!!
My favorite episode
Those sets from the 70's were great. the stained glass cabinets, the window at the staircase revealing tree branches. such ambiance.
I miss that time of life.
Remind me of my Grandmother's home in Newark, NJ. Wonderful times back then.
My grandparents lived in the same part of Queens where the show took place. I loved it because these were my grandparents and their friends. I knew these characters.
Loved that too!
I love that line about Archie's Richard "E" Nixon !!!!
The writing was so tight. Moreso, the actors were superb!
Maude that man had charisma Archie I don’t care if he was sick 😆
Best line in the sketch!
😂😂😂
Man, Maude was VICIOUS!
Bea was good at playing those characters. lol

What makes this even funnier is that my dad was the same way about his chair nobody was allowed to sit in it.
You NEVER sit in a man's chair. LOL.

Next to George Maude was the only one who gave Archie a run for his money
Apparently.

@user-wi6sh6vh8u Oh no, Roosevelt had that belly in there somewhere. He did drank after all, and there are plenty of pictures of him smoking. In fact, that partly contributed to his death.
Ok, but add those factors in with his polio, and then you’ll have the main contributors to his passing away.
Funny golden girls
Sorry, but that was Archie's house, yet Edith's relatives were the most disrespectful bunch. If anyone treated me like that in my residence, I would promptly kick them out.
I absolutely agree! And Edith doesn't say shit!
@@superstarreviews9937 He gave as good as he got when he went to Carol's wedding!
@@superstarreviews9937 and she could have being married to Archie. Maude wasn't disrespectful nor was any of Edith's family like Atlantic claimed above. It's Edith's house too because they are married, regardless of whether she is employed or not.
@@DavidLopez-jl2ug Still no excuse to have a relative act like a foul mouthed boor in one's own house.
@@KJTV67 "Good night nurse, she's marryin' a Jew." 🤣🤣🤣
im TEAM MAUDE all the way keep sitting in his chair till he has to find another one to sit in.
Edith should have left him years ago.
That’s Maude’s opinion, I assume?!
Damn! That sounded a lot like my late mother. Her parents hated Rosevelt. They believed that he let Japan attack just so they could enter the war. They also believed that he sold out to Stalin. They used to call him Crooked Legs.
HE Did sell us out to Stalin
Big deal.
Purr comedy gold
Maude's here or we could say Maudee;s here :D ¯\_( ͡❛ ͜ʖ ͡❛)_/¯
Somebody who knows how to contact you to tell him they're like and dislike system is broken it always shows a 193 on every video I've watched all day
WE GOT CIVIL WAR MAUDE WE GOT RIOTING IN THE STREETS
Because of lunatics ranging from Nixon to Trump.
FDR actually extended the depression by about 6 years. His attempt at a planned economy was misguided at best and calculated at worst.
I just posted this comment as well (see above) And FDR stole everyone's gold as well in March 1933! Read executive order 6102. Under penalty of fine and imprisonment E/O 6102 compelled citizens to turn in their gold coins for $20 per ounce in return for Federal Reserve Notes (paper). The next year (1934) gold was revalued at $35.00 an ounce effectively a 40% devaluation in their "fiat" dollars. Same 1 oz gold coin today, about $2,000! Archie forgot to include that ""little point" in his rant to Maude. Nonetheless really funny clip...
Yeah most of his social programs only helped on a small scale, the U.S. economy primarily recovered due to WWII creating jobs
@@megabladechronicles962 FDR was also funding the Bolsheviks. His vice president, Henry Wallace, was communist. And FDR, together with churchill, gave eastern europe to stalin. Thus actually proving hitler right when he was warning of the impending marxist revolution with FDR and Churchill allowing the communists to invade. Even George Patton wanted to help the Germans fight the communists.
"We defeated the wrong enemy"--- G. Patton
At least he was right in prohibiting privatized ownership of gold bullion because he realized that gold was the only true security behind the value of the dollar.
Then after about 37 years, Nixon refused to renew the 1934 Gold Reserve Act of FDR.
If that law was still enforced to this day, we wouldn’t have all the inflation of the 1970s and 1980s attacking us with a vengeance.
H-E-Double-Toothpicks, we need to get the 1934 Gold Reserve Act of FDR back on the books, law wise that is!
And all the contributions of scrap metal, among other things.
"Eleanor was always runnin' around with the coloreds...before her, we didn't even know they was there!" :P!!!! so funny! Back then you could say anything and even blacks didn't take offense. They saw this show as funny!
🤣...Jeez! I'm sure as hell glad that Eleanor Roosevelt discovered us! If it wasn't for her, who knows where I'd be!
I don’t care what color you are, this show was funny. Either this was our parents or us.
Oh & anyone back then in the 70’ties Had Good Humor,Heck even they did better at Gross Jokes than anyone nowadays!!!
Baby Boomers,as Classic Humor! 😄
Archie was right about FDR
Maybe in a greater majority type sense of the word.
😂
She should not talk to him like that in his house so disrespectful
Right on!
Edith had charisma 🤮!
🤣
How about possibly old Tom Kelcy who owned as well as operated Kelcy’s Bar?
This is the woman who should've been his wife. She can handle him. Edith can't.
Edith can handle Archie. Edith belongs with Archie.
Lol, Maude and Archie would have been divorced a long time ago. Now Edith, she is something else altogether. She knows how to make a marriage work!
Richard e Nixon, lol
He was just another Herbert Hoover.
FDR sucked, very bad president.
Maude annoys me. Yikes.
Man i think maude was 🤷♂️
Archie was right occasionally
For example, he was being alphabetical when he said that prior to God allowing a black President into the White House that he would probably have to test it out on the rest of the world by ordaining a black Pope.
I never watched Maude just because my grandma didn’t care about watching,such as The Golden Girls,same for my family the only reason Maude was instresting is when she’s Archie’s Cousin,I didn’t really think she was just what Norman Lear had based himself to be if he was a woman named,Maude & a part where she was a bit based from one of his wives,I grew up with mostly Archie Bunker in All In The Family,& Archie Bunkers Place & Good Times,I forgot over the years,All In The Family was not in my head anymore,The Humor,The Emotion & Edith’s Singing,there was still some good humor around until anyone got all into 100% no humor,Even their Edgy Humor is not funny at all,it’s like it’s gross & just 100% plain stupid as Usual,I saw one comment in a Edgy Dark Humor Video,A typical stupid person maybe my age? Said they loved how their humor and others evolved that way 🙃 when it’s Devolved Humor,I don’t always understand Archie as much but I’m older now & I can think to research what he all meant in most episodes and seasons,this episode with Maude is one of my favorites,& maybe I might just watch,Maude too just because she did great in this episode!!! 😄
Maude is actually from Edith’s side of the family; their fathers were brothers.
Can't stand Maude
Perhaps you would be happier if she was getting stretched out on the rack in the playroom of the mansion of the Addams Family?!
LMGDSOBMFAO!
Try imagining the possibility of her in a verbal confrontation with Winslow County deputy sheriff, Sergeant Beauregard Wiley and Atlanta PD Officer Wilhameinha Johnson aka The Fox; for brains instead of vanity, after they have given Walter a speeding ticket?
Remember that this is the very same Sergeant Wiley as played by the late actor Slim Pickens that had run-ins with Milwaukee born independent semi trucker B.J. (Billie Joe) McKay as portrayed by Greg Evigan in the classic 1979-81 NBC adventure comedy series of “BJ & THE BEAR”?!
Ancient politics.
and all true today…
Things never change
Was lucky & blessed to have had an article published years ago titled "The Real Final Four." Would've rubbed Maude's nose in the irrefutable truths contained therein, philosophically destroyed the Liberal Ideology, & Archie would have had the advantage for as long as he breathed.
Archie...Archie...Archie...wish you'd have reached out to me, Brother! LOL
🔥 PЯӨMӨƧM
Maude was stupid hating that show
Then don't watch it
@@milfordcivic6755 exactly
You must mean those old Buster Crabbe movies obviously?
"And we been having nothing but trouble with them ever since". No truer words have ever been spoken about America.
Carroll O'Connorr was extremely liberal & played Archie as a dope who was rarely ever right. But he got fan mail from stupid people such as you who thought he was intelligent.
That's def something a cult member would say.
How much Ivormectine have you eaten today?
He sounds like Fred Sanford and goerge Jefferson
If Archie bunker was my father or grandfather I would go nuts and be locked in my room for the rest of my life
Good grief.
Funny, my late grandfather despised FDR. He considered him a liar and a commie.
Nixon was a G.O.P. communist.
The actual liars of the Oval Office were and still are to this date as follows:
Herbert Hoover,
Lyndon Baines Johnson,
Richard Nixon,
Ronald Reagan,
George Bush (Sr. and Jr.),
and Donald Trump.
In actuality, such labelings are better suited for Trump.
@@LindaCooper-i3f Please, have you seen what is currently occupying the White House?
