Watch All In The Family Online

All in the Family was an influential situation comedy that ran on the CBS network from 1971 through 1979. Norman Lear created, produced, and wrote for the show, which was based on the British series 'Til Death Us Do Part. All in the Family was a dramatic departure from the traditions of fictional TV, which until that time had tended to avoid contemporary and controversial issues. Archie Bunker, strikingly portrayed by Carroll O'Connor, was an unrepentant bigot trying to come to grips with the social, political, and cultural transformations of the era. In his loud discussions with his wife, Edith (Jean Stapleton), daughter (Sally Struthers), and son-in-law (Rob Reiner), he regularly used mild profanity and racial slurs. The show explored a catalog of forbidden topics that included racism, the war in Vietnam, the women's movement, and sexually oriented issues. It started what became known as the "relevance era" of American television.
