Culver City, CA (January 31, 2005) - From television pioneer Norman Lear (
Sanford and Son, Maude, The Jeffersons) comes another season of laughter with one of the most beloved families in television history, the Bunkers, starring Carroll O'Connor as Archie, Jean Stapleton as Edith, Rob Reiner as Mike "Meathead" Stivic and Sally Struthers as Gloria.

All in the Family changed the face of television forever with its January 12, 1971, premiere. The show broke ground for addressing controversial subjects in realistic ways and for creating unforgettable characters that soon became a part of pop culture. The show's central character, Archie Bunker, is a working class family man whose bigoted, conservative views of the world clash with nearly everyone he meets. As television's most famous bigot, Archie single-handedly helped
All in the Family blow the lid off every sitcom formula that preceded it. Also living in the Bunker household are Archie's long-suffering but loving wife, Edith, daughter Gloria and liberal son-in-law Mike.
All in the Family was the number one television series for five years and resulted in a number of successful spin-offs including
Maude and
The Jeffersons. During its eight-year run, the show received an amazing 48 Emmy Award nominations and took home 20 trophies with multiple wins for all the lead characters and three wins for Outstanding Comedy Series. Rob Reiner won the Emmy for Best Supporting Actor in a Comedy during the show's fourth season.
