The more things change, the more they stay the same? When it comes to All in the Family, the answer is an unqualified yes… and no. Considering the show's tremendous popularity (this sixth season, spanning 1975 and '76, was the fifth straight year it held down the top spot in the Nielsen ratings), creator-producer Norman Lear was unlikely to make any drastic adjustments to the basic formula. And sure enough, in these 24 episodes (on three discs, sans bonus features), the four main characters--Archie Bunker (Carroll O'Connor, brilliant as ever), ditzy wife Edith (Jean Stapleton), daughter Gloria (Sally Struthers), and contentious son-in-law Mike Stivic (Rob Reiner)--and their relationships remain the obvious focal point. What's more, while it's true that various new developments, including Mike and Gloria's move next door (to the house once occupied by the Jeffersons), her pregnancy, and the birth of little Joey, are more than cosmetic and account for the lion's share of the storylines, All in the Family's basic dynamic remains one of the strongest and most instantly recognizable in TV sitcom history. Ditto the writers' penchant for the trenchant; social issues include tolerance and homophobia (Archie saves a woman's life with "mouth-to-mouth restitution," only to discover that "she" is a transvestite), women's rights (Gloria gets fired for being pregnant), vigilantism (Archie fends off a mugger with illegal tear gas), religion (Archie wants his grandson baptized and raised as a Christian, but Mike has other ideas), and so on. And now more than ever, some of the language will seem a little shocking, as Archie regularly uses a variant of the gay slur that got Grey's Anatomy cast member Isaiah Washington in very hot water more than three decades later.
Some changes, however, are a little more profound. The kinder, gentler Archie who began to appear a few seasons back is more in effect now; an extended and largely improvised scene in which he coddles his infant grandson is surprisingly tender, and when he hugs Mike after Joey is born, longtime viewers might wonder if what on earth has happened to TV's most unrepentant, close-minded bigot. But hey, even cavemen evolved, and the Archie Bunker we see in Season 6 bears an increasing resemblance to a character he most surely inspired, one who usually ends up removing his foot from his mouth long enough to do the right thing: Homer Simpson. --Sam Graham

Another great season after another. Is there a better show than this? Think of the time when the series ran Back in the 70's. Just seven years earlier the show's were "Leave it to Beaver" "Andy Griffith" and "The Lucy Show" . All are funny and clean cut humor. But nothing like "All in the Family". The acting And expressions are simply great. The only reason this dvd is not getting 5 stars is because the first disc produces a very slight clicking noise about every 2-3 seconds. Must be from ...

Sony Pictures, selling All in the Family to MPI Home Video would be a perfect idea for the fans, who have waited 7 years to collect all 9 Seasons of the series on DVD. Please do not say no to my suggestion. MPI Home Video will be willing to re-release the first 6 seasons, and release the 3 remaining seasons with no problems. Please sell All in the Family to MPI Home Video!

This is beyond ridiculous at this point. Millions of fans have anxiously awaited the release of these DVDs. What is the hold up?! Is Sony not planning on releasing the rest of the series?! Why release 6 seasons and stop there? Is Sony prepared to refund customers who paid good money for half of a series? I know that I did not start collecting these DVDs just to be left with an incomplete set. There isn't even any talk about a future release date, no news at all. What IS the problem? I think this ...

Okay, when I bought this, I cared only for the episode "Mike's Move" (which makes a terrific reversal of opinions between Mike and Archie) and the season opener (which tries to explain how Mike, against bringing in children because of the world's problems).
The series itself continues the road down "trying to be a typical family drama/sitcom" by dwelling more on the characters' personal lives than topical situations (for the 1970s), though the highlight episodes of this season definitely ... Read More

Short and to the point: Season six of ALL IN THE FAMILY is still better than any other show at the time (sit-com), but this season ranks poorly in my opinion to the classic first five seasons of the show.
Don't get me wrong; It's still the greatest show of all time in my book, but i like season seven better thatn season six.
Season six has too many episodes that center at Mike and Gloria's house, and it just isn't the same.
Not enough Archie.
There were still great episodes in ... Read More
