FTA-TV Married - with children

[crudbucket]

I thought this show was an absolute classic, I still crack up every time I see it.
Funny thing though, is how this show seemed to split the sexes, men loved it, women detested it ....

Al Bundy, the worlds' gretest loser - I salute you !

Excellent. Another jumped-the-shark victim of McGinley.

Married With Children is still shown on Foxtel's 'Comedy With Bite' which is good.

Love watching the reruns on TV1. Absolute classic show.

 

[iceman]

I love the show, great to watch it every night on TV1

 

[Renegade]

yeah Married with Children never gets old either, even when an episode comes on you know you've seen, you can't wait to watch it again.

ditto to all the above, great show, one of only two sitcoms i actually like(well four if you include the simpsons , which goes without saying and malcom in the middle). btw does anyone know if the reunion episode that was/going to be shown in america is going to be shown in australia?

 

[apollo_creed]

one of the great comedies of all time.

jefferson darcy - 100% genius.

'the jiggly room'

al and griff's exchanges at the shoe store..

I could go on. (and I will)

but that's it for now.

this show was an absolute pisser. marcey chicken legs darcey was great character on the show and of course no maam and their quest too find the new beer for no maam was the best episode.

i have all seasons on dvd

 

[Shifty1]

Absolutely hilarious!!!!

Steve: Al, you realize that tampering with your kids dental records is against the law.
Al: So is dressing up a chicken and calling it your wife.

as do I mate, Season 5 onwards were the best.

the first couple - they actually liked each other as a family.

best referenced here on wikipedia,

During the earlier seasons, the show was more of a realistic view of a working-class family, in contrast to the other family sitcoms of the era, where everyone's problems are solved in a half-hour and the kids all go to college, etc. Later on, Married... became, as Ed O'Neill said, "more cartoonish and broad," and was no longer a commentary on the nuclear family.[citation needed]

not sure what my favourite episode was. love the bud dominated ones.
a couple of examples;
where the famous chick wanted to bang him five years ago but kelly never game him the valentine's card - he hangs around her hotel room, gets raped by a fat woman and tossed away by the bouncer.
the one where he gets caught tossing it in the school library. haha.

Bud: I was caught having sex in the college library.
Al: All right. That's my boy.
[Starts shaking Bud's hand]
Al: Who's the lucky girl?
Bud: You're shaking her.

Got all the seasons on DVD. Best show on TV and apollo is right. It did pick up alot when Jefferson came into the picture. The episode with Mr Miyagi as Marcys boss is my favorite. Go watch it. 30 mins of pure gold

haha - saw that one just the other week.

what were some of the classics he was belting out?

 

[Xtreme]

Love it, have too many 'favorite' episodes... the one that stands out for me is where they bum around the shops due to the heat, then have the shopping race at the end.

Love the Grandmaster B references and when the family would get it wrong - eg: ghostbuster b, grandpappy b etc

 

[damochandler]

Al: ah home sweet hell

 

[likka]

This thread inspired me to get out the box set and start again from season 1... insomnia has its benefits, and there is something very Al Bundy watching DVD reruns all night whilst the missus is in bed sleeping.

 

[CF]

yeah it is an absolute classic

 

[damochandler]

another great episode was when al and his high school mates took on their arch rivals from another school. that was a pisser

 

[Embers]

haha - saw that one just the other week.

what were some of the classics he was belting out?

"Offering a Japanese man sushi how original, itd be like Gilligan getting off the island and handing him a coconut"

"Are you ready for the grand finale"
"Oh good they are going to hang themselves"
"Karaoake"
"Oh no, im going to hang myself"

Jefferson singing was also pure gold. He belted out such hits as Fame, and Im so excited with raw enthusiasim
