Married... With Children

description

"Married... with Children" was a popular American television sitcom that aired from 1987 to 1997. It focused on the lives of the Bundy family, headed by patriarch Al Bundy, played by actor Ed O'Neill. The show was known for its irreverent humor and satire of traditional family sitcoms.

The show's main plot revolved around the Bundy family's dysfunctional relationships and everyday struggles. Al was a disgruntled shoe salesman who constantly complained about his job and marriage to his wife Peggy, played by Katey Sagal. Peggy was a stay-at-home mother who was often depicted as lazy and uninterested in her children. The couple had two teenage children, Kelly and Bud, who were portrayed as stereotypical dumb blondes and sex-crazed teenagers.

Despite its controversial content and criticism from conservative groups, "Married... with Children" became a cultural phenomenon and a hallmark of the Fox network's early programming. It is often cited as one of the most influential sitcoms of the 1980s and 1990s, paving the way for other boundary-pushing shows like "The Simpsons" and "South Park."

According to the series' creator Marc Cherry, "Desperate Housewives TV show" recreates the suburban malaise of the hit movie American Beuaty, substituting irony for melancholy. Cherry reportedly conceived the show after watching news reports about Andrea Yates. When he first pitched the show, Cherry called it a "parody" of soap operas; when ABC picked-up the show, executives told Cherry to focus on the soap opera and the parody would take care of itself. They were right. Up and down Wisteria Lane, four women wage love and sustain family life, cleverly concealing all kinds of insidious plots, illicit affairs, and the occasional felony. Teri Hatcher, Felicity Huffman, Marcia Cross, and Eva Longoria Parker have imprinted their styles on their characters, collecting armloads of Emmys, Golden Globe Awards, and Screen Actors' Guild Awards along the way. In April, 2007, ratings experts reported "Desperate Housewives" was the most popular tv show in its global demographic, boasting more 120 million worldwide viewers. Behind the scenes, a little bit of the show's history reveals how Disney executives can overdose on their own sugary snacks. Shortly after programmers Lloyd Braun and Susan Lyne gave the go-ahead for "Desperate Housewives," the suits fired them, because they simultaneously had approved an extremely "risky" TV show called "Lost."
