This was the Seinfeld of it's day
#1 in the ratings for five straight years. All in the Family was even #4 in it's 8th season, which is unbelievable.
I remember as a kid in the summer of 1978 they would show All in the Family in syndication during the afternoon and it was a special treat every day Mon-Fri!
TV Guide ranks this the #4 best TV show of all time, just behind The Honeymooners, I Love Lucy, and Seinfeld. I think All in the Family should be #3 because it's certainly better than The Honeymooners!
