didn't happen too often but when it did it was really funny.

the setup: Edith tried to get a loan from a bank so she could buy Archie a new TV but they turned her down because she had nothing to back it up and needed Archie's signature to validate the loan, the man at the bank said things like '' if you were a man you would be out working and not just a housewife ''

  • go edith! go edith! go edith!

  • I'm trying to figure out who was more brilliant in this scene - Jean Stapleton or Carroll O'Connor. Their brilliant performances helped carry the sometimes-weaker writing in the final season.

  • @kbirdusa I agree, seems like the writing changed after Gloria and the "meathead" left the show. ..But I still loved it to the end.

  • That kind of thinking would be considered rather pigheaded by today's standards. Men have wised up to the fact that women can be just as useful as men, and sometimes more so. In many ways, today's men have turned into the "meatheaded Liberals" Archie loved to make light of.

  • @gameshowluvr86 He was a good husband working with a bad mindset -- You can't be raised in a world with such old school ideals and still be "good" by modern standards -- the series does a good job (especially at the end) of showing how much he loved her, but you have to understand that the Husband-Wife dynamic was a lot different back in those days before calling him a jerk.

  • @gameshowluvr86

    Archie was a good husband. He worked every day, never hit her, and never cheated on her. And he would've killed anybody who messed with her.

  • i know this is random but she would be amazing playing minnie mouse with that voice! =P

  • Archie was a fuckin' D00CHE... He so deserved that verbal flogging.

  • Edith Bunker logic101 . LOVE IT! 

  • Just give her, her mad money. She's flipped enough pancakes and toasted enough bread to earned it.

  • LMAO!!! That was a great scene. Jean played that part GOOD!!! We laugh at Edith a lot, but she was smart and tough when she wanted to be.
