The transformation from the deeply serious, intelligent Jean Stapleton to the bumbling, fumbling Edith Bunker everyday was the greatest female acting job in the history of t.v.
It was quite a transformation. Although Edith did not fumble, bumble as much as we might remember. She showed real insight and intelligence throughout the series.
👌Sho Yo Rite👌
A dingbat and an intellectual!
It takes a lot of intelligence to convincingly play someone who appears not to be, but yet warm and endearing....
@@stevenmacphail1136 More like emotional intelligence. Edith may not be educated or intellectual in the traditional sense but she knew people and she was adept at reading people and their emotions and had her own brand of quirky wisdom that was often right on the money.
Met her in a restaurant once. She was lovely.
What a class act. Her win was so well-deserved. So strange hearing her normal speaking voice. Nobody else could have done Edith but her. Edith was my favorite character although they all did an amazing job. She was just so lovable. My favorite episode is the end of season eight when the Stivics move west. Rob Reiner had said how none of the ending of that episode was acting. It shows how much they truly loved each other.
I read once that jean Stapleton was the only cast member of All in the Family who never missed one of her lines of dialogue - during her entire run on the show! That's astounding when you think about how many episodes she was in.
Wasn't she on Broadway? She developed that level of discipline obviously. You CAN'T forget lines live on stage!
@@lemurianchick Yes, she did a lot of work in theater.
She was hands down an unbelievable talent. ♥️
Jean made Edith into one of the most memorable characters in TV history. She had such a sweetness and vulvernability, you couldn't help but love her. The episode were she was nearly raped, "Edith's 50th birthday," she was so good, such terror in her eyes, it made me tear up. I still watch the show, even though I've seen all the episodes numerous times, it stands as a great show, with an incredible cast. I liked all the actors, but Jean was my favorite. It reminds me of my parents, who are no longer here, they enjoyed the show.
Yes, she was great in that episode and she deserved her Emmy but I still think that was glaringly inappropriate subject matter for a weekly TV sitcom.
Edith's character really tugs at your heartstrings.
She's absolutely adorable. ❤ What an excellent actress. When she talks she sounds nothing like Edith Bunker. That's the sign of a great actress ❤
Nobody would argue this victory.
If they do I’d like to meet them outside so they can catch these hands.
Absolutely adore this women ❤❤
A. The applause that goes on and on, and shows the depth of love and respect of her peers. B. The most articulate, intelligent acceptance speech ever at an awards ceremony.
Back when there was class in Hollywood. Such an amazing actress!
More class in general.
Lucille Ball, Carol Burnett and Jean Stapleton,,,the three greatest comedic actresses to ever appear on television.
AND AUDREY MEADOWS !
Agreed.
I agree... and Mary Tyler Moore. :)
Add Joan Davis to the list
Such a beautiful woman..
Yes, inside and out.
You ever see her part in Carol Burnett?,I can't find that skit.
@@yvettegrant3335 No, I haven't seen it but I would like to see it
Beautiful inside and outside. I’ve read stories from her close friends saying that Jean was truly an angel walking here on Earth, and that she never spoke a negative word about anyone. If only more people could be as kind of a soul as Jean was.
Agreed
It's so weird hearing Jean's normal speaking voice after being used to her Edith Bunker character for years. She was a talented lady, that's for darn sure.
Right? Perhaps the best lead actress in a comedy of all time. Beyond brilliant.
Isn't it tho? I said the same thing. Have a great night dear !
Throughout the entire first season, Miss Stapleton used something more akin to her off-camera speaking voice when she played Edith. The nasal quality did not come until later.
Yes i agree. Made us believe she really was a dingbat 😊
@@jasonhurd4379Wow! I thought it was just me who noticed that!
Lovely Lady! She was wonderful in everything she did! Miss you Jean Stapleton- They don't make them like you any more. ❤
Such a great actress.. I cried with Archie when Edith died and again when Ms Stapleton did too
What a class act! All four of these actors and actresses did a superb job on AITF. I watch them just to laugh thanks to TH-cam! God rest her soul.
How nice to see such an ovation for one of the great actresses of American television.
Ms Stapleton was a treasure. God bless her always.
One of the most well-deserved Awards in the history of awards ceremonies
What an absolutely fantastic woman and actress she was. What I'd like to do over again is go back and watch this show from the time it was new and see it all over again. They were all sensational in their roles, and Jean was about as good as it gets as Edith.
Greatest sitcom in US history.
What an amazing woman and actress.
Allen Quinn , She is so pretty..
One of the best actresses.... if not THE best..... in television. Period.
What an outstanding actress! Very beloved. She will always be remembered. ❤️
What a talented,serious and gracious lady. Those were the days....indeed
You are so radiant here! Thank you for making me laugh harder than any woman in the world! Rest in peace, Jean 🌹
❤️ My most favourite TV character of all time, and actress! Miss you Jean!!
She should have won every year she was on all in the family!
A great ovation for a great lady.
She seemed as if she was really nice in real life. RIP
Beautifullly talented Jean 🌹🌹🌹
What a beautiful speech.
Amazing lady right there ! She brought her character to such a place in TV history we still love her today ! Also who doesn’t agree that these award shows were awesome to watch back then , today’s award shows I can’t even stomach they are so agenda driven !
RIP Jean Stapleton, you were a beautiful woman.
She well deserved that award
Beautiful beautiful lady❤❤❤❤
I was in single digits when I watched the show and it is the most profound program presenting every issue from Comedy to drama in every episode and to this day and thereafter it will always be relevant! Decades upon decades later I still remember the impact this program had on me and society and continues to this very day! Jean Stapleton in the entire cast are extraordinary!❤
I love you jean stapleton. Jean was a brilliant actress!
What a great actress and a true New Yorker for sure! Icon all the way.
From a kid in Jamaica I admired her and her sitcom I was always able to laugh, this comedy helped me grow up in the Caribbean and make me started theatre and still wanna be an actor now im living in the United States
Great story, I hope you are having a very successful career here in the US.
One of America's Best Mom's.
She was brilliant in this role and will always be remembered for the fine actress she was.
Beautiful lady. Amazing to me always to hear her real voice and her " Edith" voice. Loved her !!!!
Jean Stapleton has great acting in All in the Family: Season 8.
JEAN STAPLETON WAS THE MOST BRILLIANT AND FUNNIEST ACTRESS IN AMERICAN HISTORY 💗💗💗💗I LOVE JEAN STAPLETON 💖💗💗💗💗
What a wonderful actress and entertainer and more importantly beautiful soul. RIP
I LOVE THESES SHOWS I WATCH THE RERUNS OF THEM ALL THE TIME THEY NEVER GET OLD AND I AM 65 YRS OLD
Same here!
Simply a wonderful person, inside and out. Tremendous actress.
I was so happy for her. I liked her so much, she was incredible in her role as Edith Bunker. It was so when she died off the show, Carroll O'Connor had me crying 😢.
Wow. The first time I heard Stapleton’s real voice.
💐🙏🏻RIP Jean Stapleton (born Jeanne Murray) (January 19, 1923 - May 31, 2013) (aged 90) you will truly be missed and my prayers go out to you and your family. 💐🙏🏻
so gifted and talented, the whole cast fed off one another, never be another
Jean Stapleton. Isabel Sanford. Mary Tyler Moore. Dihann Carrol, Valerie Harper. Roxie Roker, Linda Lavin, Loretta Swit. These are the women of the late 60's and early 70's who helped shape the women of our generation. Their talent in storytelling is unparalleled. I know I missed so very many, but these are the women I remember here and now as being pivotal forces in television.
Well said!
Esther Rolle
She was a class act!!
How i adored this woman. All in the Family is still my favorite show!!
Such a beautiful and extremely talented woman. Those were the days for sure!
I miss this woman so much
She is truly missed😢💖
I used to actually think she talked like her character Edith in real life it was so weird hearing such a normal voice 😂
Absolutely ❤️ Stapleton
Rare that an entire main cast would all win Emmys for their roles in a show. In fact, it has been done just two other times.The Golden Girls and The Simpsons
RayNDeere and, most recently, "Will and Grace."
Good catch
And Now Schitts Creek
Didn't Mary Tyler Moore show also do it between 71-77 ?
Wish there was a way to upload pics on here as I have an AWESOME one taken of me and the legendary JEAN STAPLETON outside her dressing room in the basement of LINCOLN CENTER in NYC. The time was June of 2002, only nine months after 9/11 and I was visiting the city of my birth, NYC, and treating myself the night before my birthday to a play written by two-time Oscar winning playwright HORTON FOOTE. The play was utterly forgettable but it's star JEAN STAPLETON was UNforgettable. I had the high privilege and honor of meeting this gracious, classy lady after the show. She was one of the nicest stars I ever met (and I've met plenty!) and she spent 15 minutes of her down-time speaking with me. The picture was taken by her co-star HALLIE FOOTE (the daughter of the playwright). And I treasure it and my wonderful encounter with BOTH of these talented ladies, to this very day. Thanks HALLIE and RIP to the late, great JEAN STAPLETON. They sure don't make them any better than she was. On and off-camera.
Incredible actress 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Outstanding performer, and jolly soprano, too!
I remember the first time I heard her real voice I was like woah. Such a classy lady. Murder She Wrote was created for her but it didn’t work so it went to Angela Lansbury. I love Jean but Angela WAS Jessica Fletcher. Just like Jean WAS Edith Bunker.
IF Jean Stapleton had taken the title role in Murder, She Wrote, would CBS have ever thought to do a Murder, She Wrote/In The Heat Of The Night crossover episode? As everyone knows, In The Heat Of The Night starred Carroll O'Connor.
According to Stapleton, she turned down the role, & Lansbury thanked her every time they met.
👍🏽💯🤗
@@user-mj8nf2vp7q what happend to murder she wrote?
@@JustinMacri007 Google it.
👍🏽💯🙄
Best sitcom actress of all time.
Loved her
I LOVE her..RIP
You can tell that Jean and that guy are married by how she just throws her stuff at him to hold. That's marriage LOL. Such a great victory for one of the all time best actors period.
🏆 Very Well Deserving 🏆
🌹 Rest In Paradise 🌹
I love Jean.
Love you Jean
Susan St James at the beginning was as gorgeous as I remember her as a young kid...
That was Marlo Thomas. She was presenting with her father Danny Thomas.
She’s so awesome! I love Edith Bunker but she’s SO nothing like Edith.
Showing off her jazzy side is 👌🏾
AlanKarla99 ??
Im loving that top😍😍
It’s hard to believe this woman is Edith. What a brilliant actress.
finally the TV academy uploaded thier videos like the AMPAS. I was crazy searching for footage!!
A true star.
She has such a lovely smile.
When hollywood wasn't hollyweird and it had class.
Classy enough that every actress who has worked there since it's inception has a story of being sexually harassed or coerced in some way.
Amen, bro!
Mike K exactly
I was 7 years old the good old days when we had talented television actress and actors no reality crap
So Classy!
This is so great! Well deserved!
Jean Stapleton won the Emmy three times as Edith Bunker. As far as I'm concerned, she could have won it every year All in the Family was on the air and it wouldn't have bothered me a bit. She was sheer comedic genius.
I love what Jean is wearing.
Loved her.
This brilliant lady is a real actress.
thats right the woman was brillian ..much deserved
whomever decided that Jean should change her voice/personality from Season 1 thru the end was one of the many reasons AITF is one of the greatest sitcoms ever
😊you were wonderful working with the great Carroll 0 Conner.
As Edith Bunker, Jean had to convincingly be scatterbrained, naive, gentle, compassionate, devoted, AND paradoxically insightful.
I definitely agree with all the comment and me too l edith make a good actress and the funniest on the show all the family and hope edith rest in peace and miss you and I hope god there for edith and Archie too miss you both
Amazing show with amazing actors.
I love her very much. Try to find Fairy Tale Theater serial and Cinderella in it. Jean Stapleton as a fairy who helped Cinderella to come to the dance and met her prince.
RIP Jean Stapleton
Just a class act.
Wow!! She sure changed her voice for the Archie Bunker Show!!
Oh Aaaaaaaaarchie!
Ugh.
Wonderful.
