Weeknights at 8p ET | 5p PT

A working-class man constantly squabbles with his family over the important issues of the day. All in the Family continually leads lists of the greatest television series in history, and it's clear to see why. Norman Lear's groundbreaking sitcom tackled hot topics that other shows were afraid to touch and set a record as the first television series to top the Neilsen ratings for five consecutive years.

Edith's Accident

At the grocery store, Edith has an accident in the parking lot. She loses control of her shopping cart which smashes into a car and a can of Cling Peaches (in heavy syrup) flies out of the cart, onto the car, and makes a dent. She immediately leaves a note on the car with her name and number. This boggles Archie's mind and he does all he can to try to get out of paying for damages.

The Blockbuster

The Bunkers are having problems with their furnace which gets Archie entertaining the idea of possibly moving to California. When an unscrupulous black real-estate salesman, Mr. Byrd, offers Archie a hefty sum of money for his home, Archie is all for it despite Mike's warnings that Byrd is a blockbuster (someone who persuades white home-owners to sell by appealing to the fear that minority groups will move into the neighborhood causing property values to decline).
