All in the Family continually leads lists of the greatest television series in history, and it's clear to see why. Norman Lear's groundbreaking sitcom tackled hot topics that other shows were afraid to touch and set a record as the first television series to top the Neilsen ratings for five consecutive years.

Mike's Appendix

Both Archie and Gloria come home in bad moods after a hard day's work. This leads to yet another argument over women's liberation.
