Norman Lear was said to be horrified when he realized people in TV land weren’t laughing at Archie Bunker, they were laughing with him.
Carroll O’Connor, the liberal actor who portrayed Archie, was not amused, either. He was trying to reeducate the masses, after all.
Rob Reiner is truly Meathead to this very day.
Too bad that he's such a liberal idiot.
Remember Archie Bunker for President t-shirts? “Your Beer Party Candidate.”
