ICONIC: Exploring the 'All in the Family' TV Show Set 

Girls were girls and men were men ❤

“Those were the days”

I am 77 and we watched this show every week. My Dad would laugh louder and longer than any time I can remember. I now understand.

What an American Treasure! So happy to see the set in good hands. ♡

I want to cry. How sweet of Glenn to save this wonderful piece of history.

Priceless memories

It is so cool Glenn bought the set. We know know it is in good hands.

Especially today we could sure as hell use a majority of Archies and Ediths

Carol O’Connor and Jean Stapleton were genius in their roles. Unmatchable delivery. I binge watch this show . So entertaining. I miss the shows of the 60’s and 70’s. This was very interesting to find out after all these years. ❤

Thank you Glenn for that amazing walk down memory lane ❤ Those definitely were the days 🥹🥹🥹🥹

Absolute WOW factor on the ORIGINAL memorabilia set and so many outstanding set details i didn’t know + will always be a classic American culture phenomenon. Bravo Glenn Beck for preserving a serious part of our memories in the ALL IN THE FAMILY 1970’s show 👊

I’m 61 and my grandpa used to drink his coffee from the saucer also, good memories ❤ Unfortunately, Meathead is still a meathead and a Marxist. Thank you for persevering a part of iconic American history, we very much appreciate it.

I'm 53yo and just showed this show to my daughter a couple weeks ago, her jaw hit the floor and stayed there. Lolz

Man, I grew up with Archie. That brings back memories.

Oh the way Glenn Miller played,songs that made the hit parade,guys like us we had it made,those were the days.

I'm so glad the set was saved. It's pure TV history. Seeing it is like seeing my childhood home.

Loved this show! The shots of NYC used to warm my heart in the credits. The acting was superb. I actually saw the chairs at the Smithsonian. Thank, Glen, for preserving part of our history!

Rob Reiner remains a meathead to this day. R.I.P. Jean Stapleton and the great Carol O'Connor.

Archie is a legend! He prophetically warned us and was right!

So glad to see this set still exists! It's a true icon in American television.

Last Man Standing was such a great show for the same reason: father a conservative and son-in-law a leftie. It showed how people can have differing points of view and still get along… and even come to love each other.

Still watch the old reruns and love them

That’s really cool ! I don’t understand how it got to be like today . We all watched same shows , had same hero’s , clothes was same . As a kid we had same lunch boxes . Everyone got along . Be nice to see it like that again . United is nice!

The days of having differing opinions about issues are over.

Really enjoy seeing this interview.

Such a great show back when people had senses of humor. Still watch to this day.

Respect, lol...very iconic.

I loved archie bunker

That's amazing that set is still in tact! I can't believe it's been so well maintained. It's good to know a little slice of Americana pastime is being preserved

I'm 52 & grew up on all in the family.

Lol. My mom = Edith. My dad = Archie. My sister = Gloria. And, no surprise here, my 'EX' brother-in-law was Meathead (same haircut!) Lol.

I can hear the toilet(cherlit)flushing right now............

The TV show where the producers were hoping the public would hate the old, working, white guy, but he ended up loved. The viewer's hate was directed toward the ignorant son-in-law.

I was slightly younger but I remember seeing my mom and dad watching this Classic!!⭐

Simply knowing that this exist has made my day.

Glenn, thank you for preserving so much of our true history. Can you ensure your collections will be preserved and in the right hands forever?

Absolutely loved Archie then and still do to this day. He probably helped shape some of the opinions I still have today.

I am glad they are in someones hands that appreciates the show

Unbelievable. Absolutely unbelievable. Goosebumps.

The greatest damn television show ever.

I hope Rob Reiner sees this and it ticks him off beyond belief that Glenn owns it.

That is beyond cool! I still love watching that show. Thank You, Glenn!

Total cool! Couple things I noticed: The telephone is incorrect. It was black and an earlier style Bell model. Also, the iconic wall mounted coat rack next to the closet is missing. Out of frame so can't tell if elephant piece is on the end table next to the couch

The chair Archie sat at is at the Smithsonian Institution

Happy New Year Thanks Glenn for saving Americana

I'm only 37, and I still watch episodes to this day. The grandfather I never had, I need to sit in that chair once Glenn I will work or pay

The set was preserved?!? Thank you Glenn.

When I was growing up, the "All In The Family" family reminded me a LOT of my grandparents. My grandparents lived in Queens in a very similar neighborhood to the Bunkers neighborhood. My grandmother was a housewife with a screechy voice, who was kind of naive, and who lived to cook for and serve my grandfather. (The Edith did for Archie). My grandparents had the same accent as Archie and Edith saying "Foyst" instead of "First" and "Thoyd" instead of "Third", or "terlot" instead of "toilet". My grandfather had very similar attitudes and opinions to what Archie's were. He also always put on a hat when he walked out the door (the EXACT SAME hat that Archie always put on when HE walked out the door!), and he also had his favorite chair in his home. When my grandparent's daughter (my aunt) got married, she and her husband lived with my grandparents in their home for several years, just like Mike and Gloria did, until a few years later when they moved into their own place (as Mike and Gloria did). Every time I watched "All In The Family", I felt like I was visiting my grandparent's home in Queens, and I saw my grandparents in Archie and Edith, so I really LOVED the show. The hardest I ever laughed at any TV show was the moment when Mike and Gloria were getting married in their home and Edith yelled up the stairs "GLORIA! WHERE ARE YOU!", and Gloria called back "Hold it Mom! I'm waiting for Daddy!" and then you heard the toilet flush! And you see the look on all the faces of all the guests when they heard the toilet flush! I laughed so hard at that moment, I could barely breathe!

It took me 30 years to learn the line "gee, that old LaSalle ran great!" From the song. That line baffled me for years! Glenn needs to get the Merv Griffin set next!

Awesome Glenn n Stu thanks for sharing this beautiful gem!!✌️🇺🇲

Thanks for this. Our whole family used watch this every week.

i grew up in the 70's. this was must-see TV back in those good ol' days. this could never be made in woke 2024.

Oh my gosh sooooo glad this is preserved

That was fun and I love seeing the history preserved by those who care for it - well done GB!

This is very cool.

This was such a joy to watch. I am amazed how well these have been preserved. I would so love to visit that set!

Way cool 😎 glen! Happy you own this set! Great job!

As a kid I had a t shirt with Archie Bunker for president!

Thank you, Glenn. Thank you for preserving such an important part of our television history.

I'm 56 years old. I have been an All in the Family Fanatic since my childhood. Hands down. Simply the Greatest Sitcom in the History of Television. I could binge watch this program all day and night if I had the time. Awesome this Gentleman has the original set. There was absolutely nothing about this program that was not purely spectacular. The chemistry between the cast took Television to the next level. ❤❤❤❤❤ You Archie !!!!!

The episode in which Michael, Gloria and Joey leave for California was the most heat wrenching. I recall how painful it was to watch Edith trying to keep it together. It was absolutely REAL. Although Jean Stapleton described her frustrations in playing Edith Bunker …. the audience loved her to bits. We were All In Their Family and we were better off for it. Thank You Norman Lear. R.I.P. 📺🎬❤️🏆

I think that is a Awesome All in the family set where both Glenn and Stu are sitting at it still brings back memories and Good Old Times of watching this Fantastic CBS Tv Program in The 70s

He forgot that Norman Lear removed the “All in the Family” set from storage in 1994 to create the short lived spinoff, “704 Hauser”. Same house. Different furniture. New family living there.

You must place Norman Lear in the top 5 most influential Americans in history. RIP, sir, and, thanks for unbelievable entertainment. Ditto, Glenn and Stu.

Still watching them in reruns and they are still making me laugh

this brought back so many memories of the show for me

Poor Eidit.... She really put up with the stuff like a rock☝️😀💜🇺🇲👍🤗

I've been watching All in the Family lately 😂 now that I'm old enough to understand it.

There were soooooo many great shows in the 70's that I watched when I was little. All In The Family, Welcome Back Kotter, One Day At A Time, The Jefferson's, Three's Company, Taxi, Good Times, What's Happening, Sanford and Son, Barney Miller, etc.... the list goes on!

2 of my most favorite actors, what it would mean just to sit in those chairs, many memories as a child watching and laughing with my parents

All in the Family is my all time favorite show.

I ABSOLUTELY LOVED watching this show and the Carol Burnett show was right after it!!!! We all secretly compared my Grandfather to Archie 🤣. Great times… Great Memories!!!

The layout is slightly different here. The house went back further beyond where the dining room table was to permit access to the basement door and steps, which were below the steps leading upstairs. Perhaps the assembly had to me modified to fit the set into its new location. Still, a fine recreation.

Glenn its sweet you are preserving all these memories

"Stifle yourself Edith" Great show.

I still binge on this show.. I go back every so often and take a couple months going through every episode I began loving this show when I was 3, because I loved their voices. I grew up on Long Island. My great great grandmother spoke like Edith and Archie (the “er” is pronounced like “oi” i.e terlet paper, vegetable erl, etc.) This show..the cast ..will remain in my heart forever, for so many reasons.

My dad was a hippie and couldn't stand meathead 😂 we grew up watching these shows 🥰 my dad still says, "Recede!" when one of us takes his chair🤣

Thank you, Glenn! My daughter and I went to the Smithsonians in 2010. She was mesmerized by Fonzie's jacket. I was excited to see Archie's chair.

BTW Carol refused for a while not to do this character! He was the furthest thing from a racist!

God Bless Archie Bunker 🇺🇸 🇺🇸 of the USA! 🙏

Thank You for the information and education of the show.

Carroll O'Connor goes on to say on his character: "Archie's dilemma is coping with a world that is changing in front of him. He doesn't know what to do, except to lose his temper, mouth his poisons, look elsewhere to fix the blame for his own discomfort. He isn't a totally evil man. He's shrewd. But he won't get to the root of his problem, because the root of his problem is himself, and he doesn't know it. That is the dilemma of Archie Bunker."

A little trivia...Carroll O'Connor co-wrote the ending song for 'All in the Family'. Check the credits.

My Grandfather drank coffee the same way.All In The Family was the best show on TV ever and Archie was the best character.Carol O'Connor and Jean Stapleton were great!

This is so cool....I had no idea about the chairs!

I was a kid when "All in the Family" was aired. The show took me from elementary school to college. It was one of my favorite shows then and now. Like "I love Lucy", it was the stuff of my childhood. Beyond classic. And yes the meathead, Rob Reiner is still a Marxist. RIP Jean Stapleton and Carol O'Connor. Thanks for the memories - those were the days!

As a kid I always looked noticed the American Flag decal Archie had on the window on his front door. It remined me of my grandfather who also was a WWII veteran. Seeing that flag at 5:50 reminds me of being a kid in the 70s. I would love to see this set in person one day.

That’s wild would finish setting it up and have it as a visitor attraction

I was just a kid when this show was running, actually it was almost over I was born in 76 but I watched the reruns all the time and loved them! I've actually been going back and re watching them recently and they definitely hold up, Carroll and Jean in my opinion are two of the finest TV actors ever! It's funny how the things they talked about back in the 70's are still the same things we argue today!

I grew up this show Archie reminds me of my grandpa I miss him so much I absolutely love sarcasm arch was the king of that

We had the conversations, we had processed all of the issues and had moved on by the time I was in my early teens.

Everybody Loves Rayond, Ray Romano said the kitchen cabinets were used for Maries kitchen on his show.

I love that show. Glenn this is incredible ❤

Oh man that would be awesome to walk amongst that set!!! I feel like it is a second home!!

Amazing! Great to see it survived.

This made me happy to watch. Thank you:)

I grew up watching this. I'm just amazed- this is so cool....

Great walk down memory lane!!! Thanks

Dear Lord! The memories! My heart is gushing over to see this again! I wonder what happened to Sally.

I had no idea what Stu looked like, I was in HS in 74' and had an Archie for president t-shirt, I was such a radical.
