Archie Bunkers Place - Archie Alone

Here are the final minutes of this classic episode from 11/2/80.
Originally aired as a one hour special, Archie is having understandable difficulty coping with the death of his beloved Edith. It is not until the final moments of this episode that he breaks down.
Jean Stapleton appeared in 6 episodes of the first season of Archie Bunkers Place. With the majority of the action shifting to the bar and her desire to move on to other projects, Jean left the series. Instead of continuing the show with off camera stories of Edith, O'Connor and the producers felt it would be a good opportunity to give the character of Edith a proper and poignant farewell. The scene speaks for itself.
Caroll O'Connor received a Peabody Award for his performance in this episode and rightly so. It's still as emotional as it was when it first aired almost 30 years ago.

Now seven people out there have no heart. I don't remember seeing this episode and I can't watch it now. It's way too sad and I don't have enough tissues.
-
I put Archie crying on the same level as Fonzie crying on the Happy Days episode, Richie Almost Dies.
-
I like how Carroll O'Connor can make you weep in this scene and then laugh at the end when he goes right back being Archie complaining about Aunt Mabel from Hackensack.
-
I'm hoping they just disliked it because they didn't want Edith to die.

poor archy

wow, a very touching and true to life scene. I'm a huge fan of the show and had never seen this before.

When this first aired myself along with six of my fraternity brothers were watching with our beers and you could hear a pin drop as each of us sat there and sobbed. RIP Carroll O'Connor.
