All In The Family (Season 4) DVD Review

The #1 Nielsen rated program from 1971 to 1976, All In The Family is quite simply one of the greatest television programs in history. Inspired by The Honeymooners and The Flintstones, All In The Family features its own loud-mouthed, opinionated blowhard sporting a hidden soft and sensitive side. Like Ralph Kramden and Fred Flintstone, Archie Bunker fulfills his role to absolute perfection, and the result is TV magic. Well-written and outright hilarious, All In The Family broke ground in the 70's with its willingness to tackle all the social issues and societal taboos of its day. Topics included racism, bigotry, sexism, homosexuality, death, and other namby-pam, socialist and liberal-feminist ideals (or at least that's how Archie would put it!) A titan among television sitcoms, All In The Family spawned a pair of shows which topped the ratings in their own right - Maude and The Jeffersons

The All In The Family (Season 4) DVD features a number of hilarious episodes inc luding the season premiere We're Having a Heat Wave in which Archie and Henry Jefferson (both for different reasons) try to prevent the Lorenzos, a Hispanic family, from moving into the house next door which just went up for sale Other notable episodes from Season 4 include Archie and the Kiss in which Gloria brings home a Rodin-inspired centerpiece much to Archie's chagrin, and Edith's Conversation in which Archie fears that Irene Lorenzo is attempting to convert Edith to Catholicism
