All In The Family / Married With Children: The Complete Third Season

"All In The Family: The Complete Third Season" - The hilarious landmark comedy series "All In The Family" returns for Season Three with its flawless sense of ensemble chemistry, precision timing, and lasting political relevance intact (and went on to win both the Emmy and Golden Globe for Outstanding Comedy Series). By now, these characters have come to feel like television's first dysfunctional family: blue-collar conservative Archie (Carroll O'Connor), his long-suffering but loving wife Edith (Jean Stapleton), "little girl" Gloria (Sally Struthers), and her liberal husband "Meathead" Mike (Rob Reiner). Series creator Normal Lear broke nearly every rule and taboo, but their foibles produced some of television's biggest laughs. They could also make us cry, as with the heartbreaking "Gloria, the Victim" or shock us, as with "The Bunkers & the Swingers" (1973 Emmy for Writing in a Comedy Series). This three-disc set is presented complete and uncut. "Married With Children: The Complete Third Season" - There goes the neighborhood all over again! Third time's the charm as "Married With Children: The Complete Third Season" has even more twisted fun in boldly subverting TV's domestic nest, smashing taboos and stereotypes as this wildly popular, often controversial hit series breaks all the rules, dirtying up TV's prim and proper landscape on its way to earning a place in pop-culture infamy. Petty, backstabbing, and always at each other's throats - just the way we like 'em ? The Bundys became true American icons during their original hit run, holding up a cracked mirror to our own lives, damaged goods and all. Contains 22 episodes of third season.
