Archie Bunker was the lead character in a sitcom from the 70's called "All in the Family". Produced by Norman Lear, it was considered groundbreaking at the time for several reasons. One, it directly addressed bigotry in that Archie was as racially and culturally bigoted as they came; his daughter and son-in-law were 70's liberals who lived with him, and the diversity of views caused much discussion, drama and consternation in the household. He was borderline abusive to his wife who was the quintessential "50's" wife, but who learned over the course of the sitcom's run to stand up for herself. Additionally, it broke rules that the censors had in place for years - for example, in the 50's and 60's, you were not allowed to even show a toilet on television. On All in the Family, you frequently heard a toilet flush, and Archie would come walking out with his newspaper. Might sound tame now, but at the time, it was considered very risque. It was actually a very good show, starring Carroll O'Conner as Archie and Jean Stapleton as Edith (his wife), brought a lot of attitudes that had previously been swept under the rug to the forefront of American society.

Archie Bunker was a "loveable" biggot from a 70s Norman Lear sitcom called "All in the Family", played by veteran actor Carroll O'Connor (also from "In the Heat of the Night"), now deceased.
He made the phrase "Meathead" very popular (is what he used to call his son-in-law, director Rob Reiner).
Also, "The Jeffersons" was a spin-off from the show as Louise first appeared there as their maid. Soon George Jefferson came in to the picture and thus the start of The Jeffersons.
"Weeeezy"!!!!!!

bigotry today as it was yesterday is wrong
ARCHIE BUNKER was an ignorant buffoon but still very funny

He was a bigot not a racist, there is a difference. Yes bigotry is just as wrong as racism BUT they are still different levels of the same basic problem. He was from All in the family.
