This is totally priceless!!!! Today's TV just doesn't even begin to hold a light to it. I'm so glad I grew up in the 1970's. I have been collecting my favorite TV shows from that decade on DVD. Glad to have the complete set of "All in the Family" seasons in my collection.
This is my favorite episode from this series, I mean who doesn't love Sammy Davis Jr. ? I love Isabel Sanford's reaction and Jean Stapleton's one liners are classic "you forgot your floor" lol
This is my number one All in the Family episode. I love Sammy Davis Jr. and this show . This is the best show I have ever seen growing up . Thank you .
You must've missed the part when Sammy told Archie, "After spending these marvelous moments with you, I can honestly say, you ain't better than anybody." The audience certainly loved it.
The writers were actually terrified to write Archie's dialogue for this episode, fearing they would offend Sammy Davis Jr. He assured them "I toured with Sinatra for years; you can't say ANYTHING that will insult me!"
And Sinatra LOVED Davis Jr. Sure, he made off-colored remarks to Davis at times in jest, but he was instrumental in getting Davis into Vegas hotels and showcasing his talent. Man, the world is a lot less good with those two monster-talents gone.
That last moment could've been the biggest laugh in the history of TV. And All in the Family was the #1 most important, ground-breaking show in television's history as well. Broke all the rules, was hilarious, and will never be repeated. Carroll O'Connor was one under-rated, fantastic actor. Rest in peace my friend, and thank you.
All in The Family was a great show! One of the first show that dealt with matters from Race,ERA,Sexual Issues, & More! They did it with love & humor, The had an unbelievable cast!
"But whatever made you turn Jew" LOL This show was sound so groundbreaking in it's ability to tackle any social issue head on and still make you laugh out loud.
Edith and Archie remind me so much of my grandma and grandpa. My grandma recently died, and it's very comforting to watch this! We would spend hours laughing together watching All in The Family!
Back in the good ole days when we could laugh at ourselves. Shows like these broke down the barriers and made us realize how we could laugh at ourselves and love each other. In high school in the 70's, I had friends of all races. I feel blessed to have grown up in those days.
I came across the name Archie Bunker when reading about Cartman from South Park where it says Eric Cartman is like a little Archie Bunker..... I then searched Archie Bunker and got to know this show. I was hooked ever since Archie is a legend. His lack of timing and filters when he speaks, his malapropisms etc crack me up
You know this was one of the most progressive, 'SJW' shows of its time, right? Other shows of the time featured genuine bigotry, this one satirised it.
@@DodderingOldMan You shouldnt pride yourself with "Progressive label though" look up late 1800s eugenics, progressives supported it. Its not like a consistent thing with those folks :P. The whole comedy of All in the Family is Archie is uneducated but has experience, Meathead is educated but has no experience. Thats the joke, they get all up in arms and thats why its such a gold show
This episode is every bit as thought-provoking and funny as it was when it first aired. I read somewhere that Sammy Davis Jr. improvised all his dialogue...it was spot-on!
@Michael030979 That is great! How fortunate your dad was to see this classic episode live! I think this got the biggest laugh of the series! Good ol' days! :)
William I wouldn't find it funny at all. I am pretty sure you wouldn't find it funny if a Black guy kept talking shit about White people on a show, would you!
I think it's hilarious that people watch this show and actually think it's not Politically Correct. It's supposed to represent the end of Segregation and the final holdouts that aren't ready for change. Archy isn't the hero in this show. He is the buffoon representing the racists that are dying out. Sadly, they didn't die out completely.
lmao I love Sammy's calm and cool attitude about everything Archie is saying to him and then his indirect insults that he slyly throws back. This show is amazing^^
"Note: O'Connor and Davis were longtime friends and when Davis expressed an interest in appearing on the show, O'Connor and Lear came up with the idea of having Davis as himself but doing most of his parts in ad lib form to make it more natural. The kiss at the end was O'Connor's idea. The unrestrained laughter was the longest in television history; it was cut short in the final print to allow Archie to say the last line on screen. "
God, I loved this show, when it came out and I was like 13 or 14 years old...........anyone who doesn't think this clip is hysterical is brain dead..........remember how groundbreaking this was! It was TOTALLY different from anything Americans had seen on TV....it's like early seventies!
I remember watching this terrific episode when it aired and the criticism over his black power salute at the end. The USA had unfortunately real life Archie Bunkers outside the TV show. 😢
Carroll O'Connor was a brilliant actor, and Archie Bunker exemplified that. He made Archie an endearing American icon. Everyone loved him. He may have had some ignorant prejudices, but as the series progressed, we learned that they were prejudices that were ingrained in him from his upbringing. He always had a heart of gold. Sammy doing the show was great! Sammy knew the show was a statement about society's prejudices. I wish shows today would be as "politically incorrect", but honest. Great TV.
'He's a nice guy, mr.Davis, not the kind that would burn a cross in your front lawn or anything. 'No, but he would toast a marshmallow on it!'. This stuff is golden. 😄❤👍
@vegasrobbie Definitely, one of TV's best sit-coms ever, if not the best, and delivered more than just laughter, but a very clear message about society and values.

"you musta told him where we were cause somebody came and got us" hahahahahahahah oh man that killed me
This is my favorite episode from this series, I mean who doesn't love Sammy Davis Jr. ?
I love Isabel Sanford's reaction and Jean Stapleton's one liners are classic "you forgot your floor" lol
Ill lickem if you show em, ill show em if you lickem.. Lol
40 years later and still hilarious!
This is my number one All in the Family episode. I love Sammy Davis Jr. and this show . This is the best show
I have ever seen growing up . Thank you .
"There's good and bad in all races"
The most important line in the whole clip.
Before we all went "Woke"....great comedy.
You must've missed the part when Sammy told Archie, "After spending these marvelous moments with you, I can honestly say, you ain't better than anybody." The audience certainly loved it.
@@kieranmackessy5533 Speak for yourself about being "Woke". Disappointing to hear you have gone down that path! I certainly haven't.
hysterical. you couldnt do this on t.v today. great acting, great writing, one of the best in television history.
C.R.T./D.E.I.
This show will never die and it should be remembered as one of the best comedies of all times.
They don't make television like this anymore.
More's the pity.
They can't. To many snowflakes with sand in their Vaginas.
@@paulf.2806 thank god
@@paulf.2806 took the words right out of my mouth
This has to be one of the best skits in the shows history.....hilarious !!

Daniel Ryan Ha ha.....that’s so cool!!😄
Sammy approved & suggested part of the dialogue, the kiss was his idea, & got the longest laugh in sitcom history at that point.
Whenever he saw them together, Rickles would crank it up that much more.
Wow
I'm black myself, and this show was brilliant lol. Comedy based on real opinions and real facts is always the best comedy.
I agree. It was certainly not intended to be anti-black. In fact it is Archie who is always the fool.... but well meaning.
And u were never offended, right?
Amen
@@janesmith9024 Mr Jefferson was just as racist as Archie.
Your what? Gross!

Jean Stapleton was no slouch either. An amazing actress on screen and stage.
Classic, one of the best 10 minutes in television history!!...
"Well, you must have told him where we were, cuz somebody came and got us" - - What a line. Almost spat my beer out.
All in the Family has some of the longest, live audience laughs in TV history. This show always makes me feel happy.
This is a great show, I wish it was on Netflix.
Max Power n
Great idea! I'll be in that.
Netflix is too leftists
@@the4thindustrialrevolution225 Anyone offended by this series is completely missing its point
Same! Archie Bunkers Place is available for free on the CTV app if you want
Beautiful!! Comedy gold!!
So clever!
A classic! ❤️We were glued to the set for All in the Family.
If there was ever a show I love growing up it this one, too many family memories with this.
All in The Family was a great show! One of the first show that dealt with matters from Race,ERA,Sexual Issues, & More! They did it with love & humor, The had an unbelievable cast!
Priceless !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Love it
Easily the best episode of the entire AITF series. Just amazing comedy!
And I remember watching this episode as well as many others live . Great entertainment those days. Showbiz will not ever be the same.
Every generation says that
In the seventies when l was living in Thunder Bay Ontario l used to this show all the time, l remember that kiss as if it was yesterday.
Forget Seinfeld, this is the greatest sitcom of all time.
Seinfeld is the best of the last 30 years , All in the Family is the best of the last 50 years. Both gold
M. Ael agree!
Your damn right about that..!!
It would of been if Reiner hadn't of left.
For sure 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I love old tv shows with people of all ages getting important roles... The 70s had many nice tv shows..
Sammy was such an awesome person
marvles moments with you indeed Mr. Sammy Davis
Archie invented the photo bomb!
No,Sammy did.
Great, hilarious writing. A real pleasure to watch this again. You could tell all the actors had a great time performing this.
2:14 "Get outta Here!" to the little girl. LOL What an awesome scene this whole clip is.
"Whatever made you turn jew?" love that line.
I'm truly old because I watched this when it was new!!!
Hooray for my generation!!!
"But whatever made you turn Jew" LOL
This show was sound so groundbreaking in it's ability to tackle any social issue head on and still make you laugh out loud.
The last part of the clip had to be the most priceless reaction I've ever seen on Archie's face
I love it when he screams at the little tap dancing girl:"Get out of here!" Still makes me laugh out loud.
1:15. The look on his face, when he gets some "WASP Soul Food" is priceless
Truly one of the worlds greatest entertainers
A fresh box of Twinkies for Mr Davis! Only the best for Sammy! 😊
“He’d never burn a cross on your lawn. No but he’s likely to roast a marshmallow”..!!! Priceless
My favourite show and one of my all time favourite Samy Davis .RIP
Edith and Archie remind me so much of my grandma and grandpa. My grandma recently died, and it's very comforting to watch this! We would spend hours laughing together watching All in The Family!
I remember this show. Watched it when I was little. I loved it!
Sammy was awesome! He was so fun and he had attitude too.
One of best all time shows!!
Family Guy will never have it as good as this one!!
Oh so many classics from the 70's what a showArchie was hilarious! Sanford & Son was another funny show.
Back in the good ole days when we could laugh at ourselves. Shows like these broke down the barriers and made us realize how we could laugh at ourselves and love each other. In high school in the 70's, I had friends of all races. I feel blessed to have grown up in those days.
Sammy was brilliant in this scene. For me it was the best clip in the entire shows run and the only one that stands out in my mind.
I came across the name Archie Bunker when reading about Cartman from South Park where it says Eric Cartman is like a little Archie Bunker..... I then searched Archie Bunker and got to know this show. I was hooked ever since
Archie is a legend. His lack of timing and filters when he speaks, his malapropisms etc crack me up
The craziest thing is, they would never allow a show like "All In The Family" on prime time TV today! And that's progress?
Sad, but oh so true!!!!!
You know this was one of the most progressive, 'SJW' shows of its time, right? Other shows of the time featured genuine bigotry, this one satirised it.
DodderingOldMan agree!

Sammy came to Australia in 1978 and 1979 we love him such a awesome brilliant actor and singer RIP SIR 💗
One of my fav comedies: regards from NZ
Sammy was the greatest
We still miss him
A classic show. This episode was fantastic. Sammy Davis was just terrific....
This episode is every bit as thought-provoking and funny as it was when it first aired. I read somewhere that Sammy Davis Jr. improvised all his dialogue...it was spot-on!
@Michael030979 That is great! How fortunate your dad was to see this classic episode live! I think this got the biggest laugh of the series! Good ol' days! :)
I always loved Archie Bunker. This was a great one.....never see a show like that again on network television....too many people would be offended....
"How can you resist? Room, board, chains".😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
I love this episode... Still remember it like it was yesterday.
its kinda sad, if a show like this played today people would be up in arms and butthurt by the political correctness.
William I wouldn't find it funny at all. I am pretty sure you wouldn't find it funny if a Black guy kept talking shit about White people on a show, would you!
Gillian Landry like most black comedians then ? ..
William, you've got it perfectly right!! Political correctness has killed just about everything it has touched.
run 187 No Black comedians are equal opportunity insulters but White comics love to lay it on thick about Blacks and other people of color
I think it's hilarious that people watch this show and actually think it's not Politically Correct. It's supposed to represent the end of Segregation and the final holdouts that aren't ready for change. Archy isn't the hero in this show. He is the buffoon representing the racists that are dying out. Sadly, they didn't die out completely.
One of the greatest comedy shows ever.
This was probably the best that the show ever achieved.
lmao I love Sammy's calm and cool attitude about everything Archie is saying to him and then his indirect insults that he slyly throws back. This show is amazing^^
My favorites episode of all the show
LOL. This is wonderful but I don't think anyone but Carroll O'Connor could have played as Archie Bunker due to his work for civil rights.
Absolutely the best t.v. series of all time, no doubt about it!!
"Note: O'Connor and Davis were longtime friends and when Davis expressed an interest in appearing on the show, O'Connor and Lear came up with the idea of having Davis as himself but doing most of his parts in ad lib form to make it more natural.

Open a fresh box of twinkies for Mr. Davis., LOL
I remember watching this with my parents. LOL! Memories...
That show should never have been cancelled.
I DID and do everytime I watch that part of the clip! CLASSIC among the rest of this episode.
Great show they all where great
Great I never thought I see the again lots of laughs
One of the best sitcoms of all time
this should be back on prime time.
God, I loved this show, when it came out and I was like 13 or 14 years old...........anyone who doesn't think this clip is hysterical is brain dead..........remember how groundbreaking this was! It was TOTALLY different from anything Americans had seen on TV....it's like early seventies!
Sammy was rockin it... what a talent
I remember watching this terrific episode when it aired and the criticism over his black power salute at the end. The USA had unfortunately real life Archie Bunkers outside the TV show. 😢
This is amazing.
Brilliantly written, flawlessly acted and downright side splittingly funny. What has happened to TV since All In The Family left us??
0:54 One of the best parts of this was watching Sammy trying hard not break character after this joke!
best scene, in the best tv show ever, when Sammy gives Archie the kiss...
One of the greatest shows of all time
This is probably one of the best episodes this show did
Pure propaganda... CRT/MARXISM.
This show was so good I use to watch this every night as a kid
THANK YOU you are awesome
The moment when Archie paused as he was about to drink from Sammy's beer glass was too priceless for words.
"Mrs. Haskell, you forgot your floor!"
lol
That always made me laugh. 🤣
That episode never gets old!! Sammy Davis Jr kissing Archie Bunker; take that,Archie!! Lol
Great stuff, thanks for posting this vid, love it :)
Carroll O'Connor was a brilliant actor, and Archie Bunker exemplified that. He made Archie an endearing American icon. Everyone loved him.

OMG!!! Three decades later, and this shit is STILL busting my gut! Brilliant! ROFLMAO!
How well written this is ! Sammy gets some great lines.
Sammy had such a great singing AND SPEAKING VOICE!
'He's a nice guy, mr.Davis, not the kind that would burn a cross in your front lawn or anything. 'No, but he would toast a marshmallow on it!'. This stuff is golden. 😄❤👍
I have honestly never seen a Twinkie on a plate before.
I remember watching this episode. I was ROTFLOL. Those were great sitcoms back in the day.
I will definitely check that out
We need more shows like this...
one of my favorite tv clips of all time.
@vegasrobbie Definitely, one of TV's best sit-coms ever, if not the best, and delivered more than just laughter, but a very clear message about society and values.
Aww you cut off the great tag at the end, "Well what the heck, he said it was in his contract!"
