I actually think the biggest reason this couldn't be made today is because hollywood/tv only wants father characters to be bumbling idiots to appease the feminists
Linda Day also was one of the original directors, who directed 30 something episodes and the pilot. They always point out Al’s jokes but the women threw punches as well making fun of the men in the show but that isn’t controversial now days. 😂
Amanda Bearse (Marcy, the neighbor) wrote many of the jokes used on the show. When Divine (drag queen) died suddenly before filming a scheduled episode, the writing staff sent flowers with a placard that basically read, if you didn't want to be on the show, you could have just said no. It made everyone laugh, which Harris (aka Divine) would have loved. He would have understood the humor.
@@LA_HA Thing is they used to be good friends according to Ed Harris. Harris in an interview said "I did a thing on the show that involved Amanda Bearse that I regretted" and it was all over a TV Guide cover that the cast was going to be on. She and the actor who portrayed her husband Steve were excluded from the cover cause they were "just the neighbors" along with the rest of the cast as well and expected Ed Harris to stand up for her and the rest of the cast that were refused a place on the cover. TV Guide said they could only have so many people on the cover but had made exceptions to that many times for other shows like MASH and Dallas etc. and refused to for this one. Basically Ed Harris remained silent in fear of losing the cover all togther if he spoke up. So according to him that is what started the whole fued between him and Amanda.
@xJamesLaughx Apologies for taking so long to Thank You for the information. I really appreciate the information. I guess it seems important enough to hold a grudge about. Especially since she and the other guy Were just side characters. Oh, well. Whatever works, I suppose. haha
@@KevanHillsaxman Negative. Michael Jordan sold the most Nikes, Al Bundy sold them under the Jordan name in his store and Shaq couldn't sell you a Chevy Silverado if his life depended on it.
Al is played by Ed O'neill. He is a black belt in Brazilian Jiu-jitsu. Ex pro football player of the Pittsburgh Steelers for a few years until he was cut. He has been in movies like "Little giants", "Dora", "Dragnet"in 1983-4" and a few others. He has had a long distinguished career.
Can't believe you left out his outstanding performance in The Adventures of Ford Fairlane with Andrew Dice Clay, Lauren Holly, Morris Day, Wayne Newton, Priscilla Presley, Brandon Call, Vince Neil and Tone Loc. He performed "Booty Time" and danced. It's a hilariously bad movie but a laugh riot as well.
I’m seeing a lot of you have forgotten Ed as Glenn, the darkly disturbed manager of Stan Mikita’s Donuts in Wayne’s World. One of the best lines from that movie is from him: “You know, if you stab a man in the dead of winter, steam will rise up from the wounds. Indians believed it was his soul escaping from his body.” He also has another good line from Dutch (which someone else also mentioned Ed being in). “Nothing burps better than bacon.” Very true.
Ed O’ Neill (Al Bundy) was an athlete before going into acting. He was actually signed to the Pittsburgh Steelers briefly where he was on the same squad with guys like Mean Joe Greene, L.C. Greenwood, and Jack Lambert. He channeled a lot of his upbringing into this role because he grew up in a blue collar setting where his dad would work as a trucker and at a steel mill, and Ed even worked in construction. So, he already had firsthand knowledge of that kind of crotchety, no nonsense mindset of the blue collar worker trying to make ends meet. He was perfect for the role, and he pretty much reprised his role with a different character in Modern Family. A little more toned down, but still as savage as ever.
Britt Ed O'Neill aka Al Bundy, now 78 years old played football even played for Pittsburg Steelers on offseason squad in 1969 prior to his acting career. Between his football and acting career, Ed was substituting teacher. Ed went back to college for theater program. Ed's acting career started in 1979 in a play called Knockout on Broadway. During that play, Ed was offered his movie role starring with Al Pacino. Ed gotten his 1st TV series prior to MWC called Popeye Doyle. Series based on movie, French Connection with Gene Hackman as Popeye Doyle. Then major break in his career as Al Bundy of MWC in 1987. Even back then, certain groups wanted this series to shut down during its primetime run from 1987 to 1997. One of the groups had prominent member named Tipper Gore, wife of VP of US Al Gore. After MWC ended in 1997, Ed continued acting from 1997 to 2008. In 2009, Ed returned to another TV series called Modern Family as Jay Pritchett, patriarch of Pritchett Family. Modern Family, Ed as Jay Pritchett is complete total opposite of his Al Bundy's character. Modern Family ran from 2009 to 2020.
there is a pretty awesome blooper of him playing a prank on Cristina Applegate years after this show ended and she was on a different show. he's waiting in the kitchen of the set and she walks in and sees him and he yells at her "where have you been young lady" her reaction is priceless.
As a brown kid who grew up in South Central LA in the 70's & 80's, we had the Cosby show and Married with Children in the 80's. And while I enjoyed the Cosby show early on, MWC was my show, as I could relate to the Bundy's, as their family was just like mine. And don't feel bad for any of Al's insult victims, as the women gave just as good as they got more often than not.
Plus as I've heard a lot, almost all of the joke and insults were written by them. It fun y how the people mad about them, are not released to that joke at all, lol.
Ed O’N. actually was in one of the best Thanksgiving films ever called DUTCH with a baby Ethan Embry. Watch it if you get the chance. It’s a Thanksgiving road trip film about an obnoxious rich kid and his blue collar step dad coming together.
Interesting Facts: When the show was pitched, the creators original picks to play Al & Peggy were Sam Kinison & Roseanne Barr, respectively. When other actors auditioned for the role of Al Bundy, they were acting like Jackie Gleason from The Honeymooners. In contrast, Ed O'Neill acted like one of his uncles. The reason why Al called Marcy (her neighbor) a chicken was because she had chicken legs. The contempt their characters had for each other mirrored the contempt that the actors had for each other in real life. In fact, when Amanda Bearse (who played Marcy) married her wife, Ed O'Neill (who played Al Bundy) & David Faustino (who played Bud Bundy) were the only cast members that were not invited to her wedding. She feared that they would make jokes about two women, each dressed in a tuxedo, getting married to each other. When Ed O'Neill was interviewed and asked about this, he admitted that he probably would have made jokes about it.
fat jokes are the least we can do. there is a reason gluttony is considered a sin in every religion. being fat isnt just a neutral thing. it literally hurts everyone as they burden our medical system. children not getting treatment because some gluttonous pig spent 25 years eating themselves into having diabetes. it IS shameful. the least they can do is take some light mockery in exchange for eating double what they need.
Ed O'Neill, who played Al Bundy, is still acting at 77. He was also in all seven seasons of Modern Family, opposite Sofia Vergara as her husband. Al Bundy was totally savage in the early 90s, when Married With Children was at the top of the TV ratings.
He has also been a a couple of movies over the years. He said that he made his character just like his uncle who didn't care what he said to anyone. I really miss the 80's!!😥
When Ed O'Neil auditioned,they were looking for someone who looked like "no matter how bad of a day he had,it would only get worse when he got home". When they started rolling for his audition, he walks through the door,and as soon as he turned around and looked up,they knew they had the right guy!
Where do you got that nonsense from? They where searching for a long time, years, and basically gave up, when a friend of the producer recommended Ed O'Neil, who was a drama actor at that time. They where looking for a comedy guy. Making it "bad day", was Eds decission.

Married with Children is such a classic! And still funny to this day. It was one of the last sitcoms that really pushed the limits, where all the other sitcoms were tamed and has remained tamed to this day. Al Bundy was played by Ed O'Neil and he was on Modern Family who was actually a good nice dad/grandpa. Peggy Bundy (Al's wife) played by Katey Sagal was on Son's of Anarchy which her husband (Kurt Sutter) was the creator of. Her husband said he wanted to kill Peggy Bundy so he wrote the role of Gemma that Sagal played, and boy did he definitely kill Peggy. There are other notable people that came from this show. The most notable would be Christina Applegate (daughter Kelly Bundy) where she started in a lot of comedy movies, most notably Anchor Man.
Ed O'Neill was signed as an undrafted free agent defensive lineman by the Pittsburgh Steelers in 1969 under rookie head coach Chuck Noll but was cut in training camp, having to compete with fellow rookie defensive lineman Joe Greene and L. C. Greenwood for a roster spot. Both became key members of the Steel Curtain defense during the Steelers success in the 1970s. This is why this great TV show always focused on Al Bundy’s high school football career. Thank you 🙏 for this great reaction Britt.
One episode, Al watched Darcy give heck to her sex symbol husby and she was kinda bent over and head a bobbin and shaking shaken her index finger at Jefferson for something he had done. That bobbing like a chicken eating, and just the way she was talking and the finger it was classic and quite hilarious. I still chuckle at it, thanks for that memory eh. Hey, I have a Canadian singer for you and I am sure you would most definitely want to hear. Burton Cummings, lead singer of the Guess Who, American Woman is one of the bands hits, they have a few. His voice is the deal. Super Star in Canada imo. Check em out, see what he has to say... Love your analysis and your laugh. Norm Macdonald, greatest story ever, it was.
The jokes in this cult series are still hilarious today. In the past, people weren't as quick to be offended and as terribly thin-skinned as they are today. I grew up with Al Bundy, loved this series and will always love it. PS: In “Married... with Children” not only jokes about weight, appearance (etc.) are made, Al Bundy himself is frequently subjected to mockery and ridicule.
@I_ll_beer_back Those jokes about weight and appearances were written by those women who are insulted by Al Bundy. Even Amanda Bearse, aka Marcy, co-wrote her insults Now, this show will be canceled in PC Canceled Culture today. Luckily, MWC is on few cable TV channels, especially at night in which more adult content broadcast at 10 pm.
@@MrTech226 I know that many of the women who played in the series wrote the jokes themselves. I really like it when you can laugh at yourself. Whether you're a man or a woman. There are countless reactions to this brilliant Al Bundy clip on TH-cam. And in at least half of these reactions, it is pointed out (by the channel owner) that “something like this is not allowed to be shown today”. I ask myself every time, what has this world come to when everyone feels directly offended and complains? 🙄 By the way, the episodes are thankfully not (!) censored here in Germany (although dubbed into German) and are shown from time to time - even at lunchtime or in the afternoon on free TV. At least this great fun hasn't been taken away from us here yet.
Most of the Jokes in the show came from the short woman, Marcie 'The Neighbor' Amanda Bearse, which was mentioned once by Ed O'Neill 'Al Bundy' in an Interview. But overall, it was a group effort.
Ed O'Neill (Al Bundy) played in a number of movies and a couple of TV series. He said that he got the part of Al having read the script by playing his uncle who was exactly like Al, resigned to his hopeless lot in life.
FunFact. The point of the show is no matter how bad u feel your life is feel better knowing at least ya not AL Bundy. When casting he was the last to audition and they knew he was perfect before he even started reading. Also he's on Modern Family. Props to him for having 2 classic generational tv shows😂😅
My favorite bit was Al installed a super-flush toilet in a private bathroom in the garage. Finally, he can do his thing without worry! First time he flushes they switch to a view of Buckingham Fountain, shown in the opening credits, and along with the sound of the super-flush you see the fountain run dry. Yo!
I loved watching this show as a kid! I was 10 when it first aired (1987). Al Bundy was one of the greatest tv show characters. Ed O’Neil (Al) played in a few movies but if you watched Modern Family then u saw him. He was Jay (married to Sofia Vegara) on the show
He's really polite and well spoken in rl. Even then. I've seen Ed in interviews and his SNL monologue and such. He is just that good of an actor especially at delivery.
Lots of times, when Marcy is complaining, she has a standing estance of bending ovr and her head moves around. She almost looks like a chicken pecking the ground.
This show was basically a satire of working-class families at the time, with a healthy dose of "yo mama" jokes from the late 80's. It was a glorious time.
The women were all comedian that used their weight as gags for their routines. They actually wrote the jokes; having used them before made it easy. An old (1940s) radio program, called “The Life of Riley” was the hilarious precursor to “Married with Children.” Riley’s wife was named Peg and they had two children. Riley was always getting into jambs, and his iconic line, “Well ain’t this a revolting development,” was a hallmark of the show. Check out the episodes sometime, I think you’d enjoy them.
Marcy was indeed his next door neighbour and he worked as a shoe salesman. A lot of the jokes were written by Marcy. He was also in Modern Family, but he'll always be Al Bundy to me
When Ed O'Neill auditioned for this show, he was the only actor who disregarded the direction, and played the character as a bitter and defeated man, instead of the usual happy go lucky dad you see on TV.
I absolutely loved Married With Children. My ex-wife once gave me hell for letting our kids watch the reruns. Ed O'Neill was great as Al Bundy. In later seasons Al started a men's club called "No Ma'am". It was outrageous. The show was on Fox when they were just starting out. It would never happen now.
Married with Children was literally the second show presented on Fox. Everyone involved assumed it would be six weeks of easy work. That's not what happened.
@@stanwbaker Yeah, it was an interesting time. Married With Children, In Living Color, The Tracey Ullman Show (which debuted The Simpsons). Boy, do I feel old!
Born in the 70's, raised in the 80's, lived through Andrew Dice Clay, Sam Kinison, George Carlen, and Al Bundy. Kids today would be looking for a safe space and ask their schools to help them get there. They would fold in 5 secs and blame the world on why they felt the way they felt. This world today is absolutely cooked.
Marcy Darcy was the neighbor across the street from the Bundys. She's the one who is his foil for many of his comments. Incidentally, this is the show, along with 'The Simpsons" who kept the Fox TV network afloat for its initial several years, until they got everything else up and running. The reason Fox is alive today goes back to the Bundys and Simpsons.
Even then, there were a fairly large amount of protests about the show. The series was actually not doing well in ratings, early. Someone led a huge protest against it, and the protests drove the series ratings to the moon and saved it from cancellation. The cast still sarcastically thanks the woman for the protests.

I agree but it’ll never happen again. America is way too sensitive.
People were sensitive during that time too. There were attempts to get the show canceled, but thankfully they failed.

This is why this great TV show always focused on Al Bundy’s high school football career. Thank you 🙏 for this great reaction Britt.
One episode, Al watched Darcy give heck to her sex symbol husby and she was kinda bent over and head a bobbin and shaking shaken her index finger at Jefferson for something he had done. That bobbing like a chicken eating, and just the way she was talking and the finger it was classic and quite hilarious. I still chuckle at it, thanks for that memory eh.
Hey, I have a Canadian singer for you and I am sure you would most definitely want to hear. Burton Cummings, lead singer of the Guess Who, American Woman is one of the bands hits, they have a few. His voice is the deal.
Super Star in Canada imo. Check em out, see what he has to say... Love your analysis and your laugh. Norm Macdonald, greatest story ever, it was.
Our hostess... she's giving off Hall Berry/ Janet Jackson vibes. Be still my heart.
The jokes in this cult series are still hilarious today.
In the past, people weren't as quick to be offended and as terribly thin-skinned as they are today.
I grew up with Al Bundy, loved this series and will always love it.
PS: In “Married... with Children” not only jokes about weight, appearance (etc.) are made, Al Bundy himself is frequently subjected to mockery and ridicule.
@I_ll_beer_back Those jokes about weight and appearances were written by those women who are insulted by Al Bundy. Even Amanda Bearse, aka Marcy, co-wrote her insults
Now, this show will be canceled in PC Canceled Culture today. Luckily, MWC is on few cable TV channels, especially at night in which more adult content broadcast at 10 pm.

I know that many of the women who played in the series wrote the jokes themselves.
I really like it when you can laugh at yourself. Whether you're a man or a woman.
There are countless reactions to this brilliant Al Bundy clip on TH-cam.
And in at least half of these reactions, it is pointed out (by the channel owner) that “something like this is not allowed to be shown today”.
I ask myself every time, what has this world come to when everyone feels directly offended and complains? 🙄
By the way, the episodes are thankfully not (!) censored here in Germany (although dubbed into German) and are shown from time to time - even at lunchtime or in the afternoon on free TV.
At least this great fun hasn't been taken away from us here yet.
He was in a kids football movie called,
LITTLE GIANTS
I love that movie.
Ed O Neil (Al Bundy) was in a 1991 movie called Dutch with a young Ethan Embry that was a really good movie!
Hilarious.
I love Dutch. Such a great movie.
When comedy was still comedy!!!😂😂😂
Most of the Jokes in the show came from the short woman, Marcie 'The Neighbor' Amanda Bearse, which was mentioned once by Ed O'Neill 'Al Bundy' in an Interview. But overall, it was a group effort.
I've heard, he played that roll so well, they couldn't use him in any other movies. People would always remember him as Al Bundy lol
Ed O'Neill (Al Bundy) played in a number of movies and a couple of TV series. He said that he got the part of Al having read the script by playing his uncle who was exactly like Al, resigned to his hopeless lot in life.
Jonathan Taylor Thomas was middle child in Home Improvement, Randy. She looks like Zachery Ty Bryan who played the oldest child, Brad.
One of the best shows ever 😂😂😂😂😂
Al bundy needs a statue in Chicago. He's an American icon.
Me and my dad used to bond over watching this on late night TV in the UK. My mum used to go to bed and leave us to it, funnily enough...
Yes!!! U finally did this! I loved watching this show when I was in middle school & in high school
FunFact. The point of the show is no matter how bad u feel your life is feel better knowing at least ya not AL Bundy. When casting he was the last to audition and they knew he was perfect before he even started reading. Also he's on Modern Family. Props to him for having 2 classic generational tv shows😂😅
Shows like Married With Children, The Jeffersons, All In The Family, and Sanford and Son are why 70s & 80s TV were the best!
Laugh and the world laughs with you,cry and you cry alone.Funny as fk.😂😂😂
Al Bundy is my spirit animal
My favorite bit was Al installed a super-flush toilet in a private bathroom in the garage. Finally, he can do his thing without worry! First time he flushes they switch to a view of Buckingham Fountain, shown in the opening credits, and along with the sound of the super-flush you see the fountain run dry. Yo!
kaawoosh
@@blueblood76 now that’s a man’s flush!
He was Claire and Mitch's dad in Modern Family.
AMAZING comedic-timing actor 👌👍
I have all 11 seasons of this show. Pure brilliance in a time of sanity.
Ed O'Neil AKA Al Bundy reprised his role for a skit on In Living Color. The skit was, The Dozens with Jamie Foxx 😂
I loved watching this show as a kid! I was 10 when it first aired (1987). Al Bundy was one of the greatest tv show characters. Ed O’Neil (Al) played in a few movies but if you watched Modern Family then u saw him. He was Jay (married to Sofia Vegara) on the show
I was in my 20s when this came out All hail Kelly bundy! I swam in the 1st tier of fountain in 90s after dead show 😂
Martin Payne and Al Bundy! Two of TVs all time funniest mean men
Ed O'Neil and Jaime Foxx on "Living color" dirty dozens episode is a classic!!! Check it out for some more laughs!! Hilarious skit
He's really polite and well spoken in rl. Even then. I've seen Ed in interviews and his SNL monologue and such. He is just that good of an actor especially at delivery.
not being able to show this now is the problem with today, today is a complete s**t show tbh
Lots of times, when Marcy is complaining, she has a standing estance of bending ovr and her head moves around. She almost looks like a chicken pecking the ground.
I love Ed O’Neil in the movie Dutch. He’s always so funny
The joke writers for this show nailed it made me laugh every time even as a kid
This show was basically a satire of working-class families at the time, with a healthy dose of "yo mama" jokes from the late 80's. It was a glorious time.
I know you said you feel bad, but you still laughed at every joke. Funny is funny. Love your content and keep doing what you're doing.
Ed O Neil played many tough guys in movies/shows before and after this...I think nowadays he's back in Comedy on the "Modern Family" series.
The women were all comedian that used their weight as gags for their routines. They actually wrote the jokes; having used them before made it easy.
An old (1940s) radio program, called “The Life of Riley” was the hilarious precursor to “Married with Children.” Riley’s wife was named Peg and they had two children. Riley was always getting into jambs, and his iconic line, “Well ain’t this a revolting development,” was a hallmark of the show. Check out the episodes sometime, I think you’d enjoy them.
Such a great time, the 80s!
Hi Britt he in modern famley as jay😊love your blog❤Fan from Spain🌹
Al Bundy was our hero in that era!! We need to bring him back!! The country needs him!!
I know Al was main character but Peggy (Katey Sagal) has been in a lot of good shows including " 8 simple rules and Sons of anarchy"
Marcy was indeed his next door neighbour and he worked as a shoe salesman. A lot of the jokes were written by Marcy. He was also in Modern Family, but he'll always be Al Bundy to me
This is one of my favourite tv shows I know it couldn’t be made today but I’m glad we got it great reaction as always keep up the awesome work
Al is a savage!!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣
When Ed O'Neill auditioned for this show, he was the only actor who disregarded the direction, and played the character as a bitter and defeated man, instead of the usual happy go lucky dad you see on TV.
I absolutely loved Married With Children. My ex-wife once gave me hell for letting our kids watch the reruns. Ed O'Neill was great as Al Bundy. In later seasons Al started a men's club called "No Ma'am". It was outrageous. The show was on Fox when they were just starting out. It would never happen now.
Married with Children was literally the second show presented on Fox. Everyone involved assumed it would be six weeks of easy work. That's not what happened.
@@stanwbaker Yeah, it was an interesting time. Married With Children, In Living Color, The Tracey Ullman Show (which debuted The Simpsons). Boy, do I feel old!
Born in the 70's, raised in the 80's, lived through Andrew Dice Clay, Sam Kinison, George Carlen, and Al Bundy. Kids today would be looking for a safe space and ask their schools to help them get there. They would fold in 5 secs and blame the world on why they felt the way they felt. This world today is absolutely cooked.
Marcy Darcy was the neighbor across the street from the Bundys. She's the one who is his foil for many of his comments. Incidentally, this is the show, along with 'The Simpsons" who kept the Fox TV network afloat for its initial several years, until they got everything else up and running. The reason Fox is alive today goes back to the Bundys and Simpsons.
He (and this show) is the reason why I tried my best to learn English asap. And I did.
One of the best sitcoms of all time!
Ed o Neill had a role in the bonecollector. I never thought i could see him in a serious role, but truth be told, it suited him well.
Even then, there were a fairly large amount of protests about the show. The series was actually not doing well in ratings, early. Someone led a huge protest against it, and the protests drove the series ratings to the moon and saved it from cancellation. The cast still sarcastically thanks the woman for the protests.
Al is the all time brutally honest sarcastic fed up man who hates his job
Al Bundy rules!!!!!!
I have a kind suggestion for you to react to
Christopher Titus- I fell into a bonfire
This show was and is awesome
