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."

Regular viewers of ABC's Wednesday night comedy hit "Cougar Town" will feel their lips curl into wry smiles when they read pre-premiere summaries of the show: The producers and writers originally conceived "Cougar Town" as the life and times of a forty-something divorcee intrepidly devoted to seducing younger men in a small Florida town. The early promos stress the small town's obsession with its high school football team, ironically The Cougars. The football theme arrived still-born, and the entire show might have hit the airwaves DOA except that Courteney Cox and "Scrubs"-creator Bill Lawrence had vision and courage to work a few miracle revisions. The whole "Cougar Town" crew rapidly realized, like Jules surveying a bar-full of mini-skirted matrons, "I know I'm one of them. I just don't feel like one of them." They wisely helped Jules morph into her authentic self. The younger boyfriend disappeared from "Cougar Town" after just a few episodes, and stories coalesced around Cox's character Jules, her teen-aged son Travis, and Jules's extended family"”her neighbours on the cul-de-sac, her co-workers in her real estate office, and her profligate ex-husband. While "Cougar Town" struggled to resolve its identity crisis, Lawrence's innuendo-rich dialogue and Cox's increasingly sophisticated delivery sustained the show. By the end of "Cougar Town's" first season, ratings alone offered ample testimony to "Cougar Town's" radical improvement as it held audiences in the half-hour after "Modern Family"; but the Hollywood Foreign Press sealed the deal, nominating Cox for a 2010 Golden Globe as Best Actress in a Comedy.
