Oh hey you're welcome! Yeah I used to watch this show a long time ago. TV now is just a lot of mindless-drone fluff. This show had substance. Yes...the good old days!
What a load of shit!!! once again Americans trying to copy one of the Great British sitcoms of all time In sickness and in health. This crap cant be compared to the British series. FACT American sitcoms SUCK!!!!!
Edith and Archie remind me so much of my grandma and grandpa. My grandma recently died, and it's very comforting to watch this! We would spend hours laughing together watching All in The Family!
Family Guy was no way in hell influenced from All in the Family. family guy was thought up by untalented people and All in the Family was thought up by the genius of Norman Lear. how could anyone compare 1970s shows with the TRASH that is on in 2011 plus family guy is not real, its a lame cartoon
@Thinkfree70 Peter's appearance and voice were influenced from Archie, and Lois's appearance and voice were influenced from Edith, and the opening sequence and the ending theme song were influenced from All in the Family's opening sequence and ending theme song.
@Thinkfree70 They have frank sinatra jr on family guy, plus alot of great swing musicians similar to sammy..Family Guy is one of the best shows around, immature alot of the time?yes. But a great show nontheless :)
@Thinkfree70 i find it funny that family guy clips get so many views yet its hated by so many people. even that guy who created gets dissed constantly on his youtube account, lol.
@atheist382 believe what u want to believe! Atheism is not the way to believe! That's my believe and opinion! And as for the rest of your stupid babbling I wish you didn't exist!!
Come-on Arch do some packing and lifting for us,Archie should have said sure meathead and show us how fast you can put food in your mouth,I mean Mike never does any work.
I understand the script was written by Bill Dana (Jose Jimenez). Brilliant way to reveal racial ineptness and stupidity with humor. Brilliant. Thanks Mr. Dana.
This show was so classic. I wish they had shows like it today. It was tough, edgy, loving, and just plain funny. Archie is a racist but he is funny and sweet at the same time. I am black and my parents absolutely loved this show. They were black and loved Archie's character.
If thats the case, Archie had the greatest adlibbed line in the history of TV.
Me thinks that maybe they added his line later on. As it appears there is a cut and then Archie speaks that final line. My question too is what was Sammy supposed to do? That would have been funny too.?
In real life, Carrol O'Connor was the complete opposite of a bigot. In fact, he was on the cover of Ebony magazine with his goddaughter, a classmate of mine, who is black. He was thrown out of a school for rooming with a black guy. Class act.
Oh I LOVE this show; love it when Sammy do the kiss at the last moment; he killed it for us and the young ones singing Battle Hymn of the Republic; lol lol
we're to politically correct now for a show like this to see the light of day,in some ways we've regressed as a society..this is classic and I'm glad we can still enjoy it,if they tried to make this show today it would get banned.
Quick story here: This is the 100% truth. My father who is now 63, was sitting in the audience while this episode took place. I was also told by my dad that when Sammy Davis Jr. kissed Archie on the cheek, that it was completely unscripted and that nobody knew that it was going to happen, including Archie, the audience and camera men!! Pretty cool huh!! :)
@Michael030979 Nice story, but too full of holes. First off, what was Sammy supposed to do? And second, Archies response that you don't see in this clip was "What the hell. Its in his contract". Great line referring to when Sammy said it was in his contract he had to kiss white people on TV. Now if Caroll O'Connor adlibbed that line after Sammy adlibbed the kiss, that is the greatest adlib in the history of television.
@Michael030979 OMG really....I never knew that....and your father was probably laughing along with everyone., I mean I would've been even though it was before my time.
@Michael030979 that's not entirely true....the kiss was Carroll O'Connor's idea, so he knew....but of everyone else, well, that is cool that no one knew!
@Michael030979 That is great! How fortunate your dad was to see this classic episode live! I think this got the biggest laugh of the series! Good ol' days! :)
Special pricing this week only in celebration of Season 9 being released at last! You can send me an e-mail or PM if you are interested! I have the best offer and the best quality!! I'm a huge fan of the show and I present the episodes in CHRONOLOGICAL order, unlike their official releases!! dan611Logan@yahoo.com and yes I do take PayPal, just $35!!
@BigOrangeTitan: Thanks for the history lesson, but I knew all this. It doesn't change the fact that Lincoln was a Republican, a party borne out of limiting, if not abolishing slavery. Lincoln's wishy-washy rhetoric re: slavery was also carefully crafted to keep him from being framed as an abolitionist (an extreme liberal position at the time) by folks like Democrat Stephen Douglas, who he ran against for a Senate seat and again for the presidency.
@hoocarez Lincoln was a Southerner (from Ky.) his attitudes towards Blacks were no different than most Whites (North or South) of that time. His political hero was Henry Clay who advocated colonising Blacks in Africa. He (Lincoln) even invited Black leaders to the White House to ask them where they wanted to be resettled. P.S. Most of the leaders of the Civil Rights Movement were from the South (like LBJ).
Epic. SDJ had so much finesse and style and Carroll O'Connor played the bigot you hated to love so well. One of the best scenes from a TV series that wasn't afraid to make a statement while keeping you laughing. RIP Sammy, Carroll & quality television.
i think diffrent strokes was an origninal show and the spinoff to that is the facts of life the followup on ms garret the maid who becomes a den mother at eastland girls school
I realized when watching this that therer is a Charles Russell print on the wall. A tribute to Montana and both Mr. and Mrs. O'Corrol's background. :) They both have been very kind to the University of Montana and I'm proud that they are our alumni. :) Montana to New Jersey. Was it New Jersey were the Bunkers lived? Fun that Mr. O'Conner could do this accent. For those of you from that area, is he good at it?
Oh! I haven't seen this since it aired! My insides hurt. And why do I remember it with lips on lips? lololol My bigotted step-father(who loved Archie) didn't know what to think!! lol Poor man. He never got it. This caused quite an scandal. So glad those days are mostly gone. I just hope one day we won't color code anyone. :) How did Sammy come do be in Archie's house? I also notice that the print on the back wall is a Charles Russell. I'd bet a tribute to Montana. :) huh
@Songsmirth it's been a week so you've probably found an answer already but he came to Archie's house because his briefcase was left in Archie's cab and (i can't remember if Archie found it there or Munson) ________ noticed it and this episode played out
@7331F0X I think archie found it and turned it in. It was later discovered to belong to Sammy Davis and it was arranged that he would pick it up at Archies house, or at least that s the way I remember.
The only thing about this clip is it doesn't include the conclusion after the laughing at the end. When it finally subsides, Archie kinda shrugs it off and says, "Eh, what the hell. It was in his contract." LOL
I'm only 25 but i love this show Archie was a bigot but George Jefferson and Fred sand ford to. i love them all. political correctness has killed great show such as this one. i wish people would have a sense of humor about these types of shows. these shows made America.
As a Blk Woman, This is still one of my fave shows of all time!
(WOW Lionel was Fine!)
Archie: "If GOD had meant us to be together, he'd a put us together. But look what he done, he put U over in Africa, he put the rest of us in all the "White" countries."
Sammy:"Well U must have told them where we were cause' sumbody came & got us." HaaaHaaaHaaa!
ROTFL!!!! Archie was so oblivious to Sammy's intellect & Sammy chewed Archie up & spit him out in the trash! Bunker was just too DUMB to know it!
@MrsD7777 Yes. Excellent writers. And Lionel was fine! Unlike his bigoted, feather of a father. It was just the times. Tides has turned. "And somebody came and got us!" Sammy must have loved doing this bit. His energy was amazing. He was a jewel. And when I watched him he seemed so comfortable with whatever he did. Liquid. Hated to see him smoke though. I worried it would effect his singing. My favorite is his work was in, "Taps." All the weight of a marshmellow but a giant presence. :)
Carol O'Connor was amazing! I later learned that the southern drawl he had on In the Heat of the Night was his actual accent and he had to really work on that uneducated sounding NY accent in All in the Family! He carried the show with his amazing portrayal of his bigoted character. The writers were ingenious and witty- and gutsy to come up with such controversial and social-political statements of the time. In such a funny way! Many if which still apply today. As I read by the comments he
@wendym1234 AMEN! I Loved Carol O'Connor & actually cried when i heard he passed away in 2001, only 6yrs after his son Hugh killed himself in 1995, so sad.
So many people were so offended@him and the show, but i think they missed the point. As a blk woman, i laughed so hard at Archie #1.-He was an Equal-Opportunity Hater, #2 One has to be mentally retarded to be that ignorant of Social Equality & Justice. Even Edit-da-dingbat was much smarter than he, poor thing! *LOL*
@wendym1234 Really? I don't mean to sound like I'm doubting you, but one of the earliest things I remember seeing Carol O' Connor in was the 1967 movie Point Blank and he had something of a NY accent in that film which was way before All in the Family (although he didn't sound anything like Archie in that film)
@Oceanpacifica1968 Well Meathead had no Job To Begin With(i think at the time) so no matter what you say about someone above you wouldn`t be an insult
lmao I love Sammy's calm and cool attitude about everything Archie is saying to him and then his indirect insults that he slyly throws back. This show is amazing^^
I love it how "All in the Family" is such a kind of Litmus test for immature idiots and people with intelligence and maturity...intelligent people get the humor and see that the show is truly anti-conservative. The idiots on the other hand are insulted and think the show is just conservative bigotry. lol So typical!
truly one of the best sitcom episodes ever. written and acted absolutely flawlessly. true comedy comes from the flaws and foibles of everyone, not just a particular race, color or religion. laugh at others as you would laugh at yourself.
"The facts of life" is a spin-off of "Different strokes" which is a spin-off of "Good times" which is a spin-off of "Maud" which is a spin-off of "All in The Family". "The Jefferson's" is also a spin off of "all in the family"
It's not just that All in the Family broke the mold and covered taboo subjects people, its that the show was fucking hilarious while doing so. That's why its a classic.
The best thing ever put on television. The standard by which all other sitcoms have been judged and against which EVERYTHING today falls miserably short.
It revolutionized the sitcom. After this show, sitcoms had a buffoon for lead. Married with Children was similar to it although the characters had different personalities and/or views.
@trwent Yah really think so? Seriously though and I'm not having a shot at you trwent, I was amazed to discover how many people all over the world find it difficult to separate reality from TV, goes to show just how dangerous Television really is as a means of controlling how we think.
@felixq78 Well Television before All In The Family had a basic portrayal of the American family in the homogenized Father Knows Best, Leave It To Beaver mode,
the dysfunctional family, racism, homophobia, Vietnam, these weren't subjects TV shows would touch with a ten foot pole before AITF broke the mold.
Wow what an amazing episode. First time I have seen this show. I'm 29 you see and from the UK, but I was lucky to watch this as my first episode. Very funny and Sammy was a great man to have on.
Oh hey you're welcome! Yeah I used to watch this show a long time ago. TV now is just a lot of mindless-drone fluff. This show had substance. Yes...the good old days!

Archie: "If GOD had meant us to be together, he'd a put us together. But look what he done, he put U over in Africa, he put the rest of us in all the "White" countries."
Sammy:"Well U must have told them where we were cause' sumbody came & got us." HaaaHaaaHaaa!
ROTFL!!!! Archie was so oblivious to Sammy's intellect & Sammy chewed Archie up & spit him out in the trash! Bunker was just too DUMB to know it!

@MrsD7777 Yes. Excellent writers. And Lionel was fine! Unlike his bigoted, feather of a father. It was just the times. Tides has turned. "And somebody came and got us!" Sammy must have loved doing this bit. His energy was amazing. He was a jewel. And when I watched him he seemed so comfortable with whatever he did. Liquid. Hated to see him smoke though. I worried it would effect his singing. My favorite is his work was in, "Taps." All the weight of a marshmellow but a giant presence. :)

Carol O'Connor was amazing! I later learned that the southern drawl he had on In the Heat of the Night was his actual accent and he had to really work on that uneducated sounding NY accent in All in the Family! He carried the show with his amazing portrayal of his bigoted character. The writers were ingenious and witty- and gutsy to come up with such controversial and social-political statements of the time. In such a funny way! Many if which still apply today.

@wendym1234 AMEN! I Loved Carol O'Connor & actually cried when i heard he passed away in 2001, only 6yrs after his son Hugh killed himself in 1995, so sad.
So many people were so offended@him and the show, but i think they missed the point. As a blk woman, i laughed so hard at Archie #1.-He was an Equal-Opportunity Hater, #2 One has to be mentally retarded to be that ignorant of Social Equality & Justice. Even Edit-da-dingbat was much smarter than he, poor thing! *LOL*
MrsD7777 1 year ago
@wendym1234 Really? I don't mean to sound like I'm doubting you, but one of the earliest things I remember seeing Carol O' Connor in was the 1967 movie Point Blank and he had something of a NY accent in that film which was way before All in the Family (although he didn't sound anything like Archie in that film)

Yes Archie was a bigot, but so was George Jefferson, and Fred Sandford. Surely i'm not the only who commented on this video who knows that....

At 1:19 I did think Meathead's insult of Archie's job was an insult to any blue-collar worker.

@Oceanpacifica1968 Well Meathead had no Job To Begin With(i think at the time) so no matter what you say about someone above you wouldn`t be an insult

I love it how "All in the Family" is such a kind of Litmus test for immature idiots and people with intelligence and maturity...intelligent people get the humor and see that the show is truly anti-conservative. The idiots on the other hand are insulted and think the show is just conservative bigotry. lol So typical!

truly one of the best sitcom episodes ever. written and acted absolutely flawlessly. true comedy comes from the flaws and foibles of everyone, not just a particular race, color or religion. laugh at others as you would laugh at yourself.

"The facts of life" is a spin-off of "Different strokes" which is a spin-off of "Good times" which is a spin-off of "Maud" which is a spin-off of "All in The Family". "The Jefferson's" is also a spin off of "all in the family"

@Kennyuchiha42777 Diff'rent Strokes wasn't a spinoff of Good Times. Gary Coleman did appear on Good Times, but he played a different character.

@cutebbwcandy,
It revolutionized the sitcom. After this show, sitcoms had a buffoon for lead. Married with Children was similar to it although the characters had different personalities and/or views.

@trwent Yah really think so? Seriously though and I'm not having a shot at you trwent, I was amazed to discover how many people all over the world find it difficult to separate reality from TV, goes to show just how dangerous Television really is as a means of controlling how we think.
felixq78 1 year ago
@felixq78 Well Television before All In The Family had a basic portrayal of the American family in the homogenized Father Knows Best, Leave It To Beaver mode,
the dysfunctional family, racism, homophobia, Vietnam, these weren't subjects TV shows would touch with a ten foot pole before AITF broke the mold.
