A Portrait of the Family that Changed TV and Beyond !
First there was Duffy's Tavern, then the Honeymooners, (Til Death Do Us Part in the UK) and before Moe's Tavern was
ALL
IN THE
FAMILY
. The enormous impact this show had on American society with its controversial subject content and very un-Father Knows Best language and worldview is unquestionable. It was the show that could anger and shock you and drive you to tears one moment, and in the blink of an eye, have you rolling on the floor in laughter. It was one of the first shows to deal with Women's Issues, Bigotry - - no topic was too controversial. This book will help you appreciate it... and yes, it has an episode guide, the trivia and all that stuff too. It was the show that made us look at ourselves and sparked passionate arguements. This is a fascinating, yet incredibly readable
history
of the show, balancing between sociological analysis and the stuff that any true fan or addict would want to know. Thumbs up for TV fans, and people like me who grew up on it and were deeply effected by the episodes.

Archie and Edith, Mike and Gloria
Excellent reading for any
All
in The
Family fan
. When this show first came out I was too young to remember but love to watch the reruns over and over.
Boy the Way Glenn Miller Played, books that are a hit today!
I thought while reading this book how thoroughly done it was. I thought about how much I loved
All
in the
Family
, how connected I felt to each character, how I identified with
Mike
,
Gloria
,
Edith
and even
Archie
. How real it was to me. When a piece of literature, brings back all of those feelings and memories, it is something to remember. Pictures, stories, Archie-isms and an episode guide are just a few things that make up this book. I recommend it to all Archie Bunker fans and haters alike. This book is one of the best documentations of characters you love to hate, that I have ever come across.
