Married... With Children arrived without much fanfare and built its audience the hard way — through word of mouth. Married... With Children gets the fundamentals right first, then finds room to get weird with it. Al Bundy is an unsuccessful middle aged shoe salesman with a miserable life and an equally dysfunctional family. He hates his job, his wife is lazy, his son is dysfunctional (especially with women), and his daughter is dim-witted and promiscuous. Ed O'Neill and Katey Sagal lead a cast with the timing to make it work. The series ran for 11 seasons (1987–1997), building a story that gave its audience time to invest properly. What keeps Married... With Children from feeling disposable is a cast that clearly understands the material better than the format usually demands. It rarely drops the ball, and when it does, it recovers fast.

If you need a comedy that actually makes you laugh, Married... With Children is a strong candidate. Fans of The Honeymooners will recognise the sensibility here immediately. 11 seasons is a lot, but the quality holds all the way through. Ed O'Neill anchors an ensemble with real chemistry. Genuinely funny, consistently, across the whole run.

Married... with Children wrapped up in 1997, created by Michael G. Moye and Ron Leavitt — and 11 seasons are available to watch from start to finish.
