I guess that weird 1970s Women's Lib shit made that show to be "Alice" instead of "Mel's Diner," which would have been a better show with old Vic here as the lead.

Btw, a couple episodes back, Archie said the words, "The cake is a lie!" I could hardly believe it. It was the one where he was given a surprise 50th birthday party but he was convinced it was only his 49th.

Ahhh, I was waiting for this one. I remember this scene from when I was a kid. Archie is upstairs in Mike's room getting him up to go on a fishing trip and Mike is getting his shoes and socks on. He puts on one left sock and then his left shoe and Archie freaks out. Episode 422.

And for the record, Archie is 169% correct. A sock and a sock then a shoe and a shoe is the only way. A sock and shoe and a sock and shoe is for meatheads. Dead from the neck up.
This ought to make Archie happy. That dumb meathead polack can finally move out. Imagine the fortune Archie has spent feeding that horse all this time.

Well how do you like that. Mike gets a Fellowship, which means another YEAR in school. Poor Archie. And that was the end of season 4.

Season 5 starts with a THREE-PARTER starting with Archie getting laid off and then having to picket with his union. There's no money for food. Spaghetti every night. Louise Jefferson brings them a charity pot of beef stew. Sad times for 704 Howser Street.

Season 5 Episode 8. Archie is missing! He was supposed to be on a bus to Buffalo for the convention but he never arrived! Uh oh!

I'm considering taking the same action against you here as I did on CI. If no one is responding to your threads, you should take that as a hint.
You're going to post cock pics in my nice Archie Bunker thread? And you know, I was just formulating some thoughts about how the things going on back then are JUST THE SAME as the shit going on right now. There's some good stuff coming, I promise.
It's kind of a niche thing. You gotta give it a little room to breathe. Not everyone has these episodes at the ready as I do. But some memories will come back for some people, surely. The best I can do is spur those memories on with highlights and details as the series goes on.
