“Meathead”, Archie Bunker’s son in law, was the caricature of a liberal who was so open minded, his brains fell out.

Archie Bunker was the caricature of a right wing bigot who was so closed minded, no new thought could penetrate his skull.

Within that tension, “All In The Family” portrayed the conflicts that played out in America at that time.

Sometimes successfully, sometimes not, but the series did provoke its share of discussion- back in a time when discussion still occured.

I watched some of it (more than Steve, obviously), but I wasn’t a regular.
