Archie Bunker
Archibald “Archie” Bunker is a fictional New Yorker in the 1970s top-rated American television sitcom All in the Family. Archie Bunker is a veteran of World War II, reactionary, conservative, blue-collar worker, and family man. The Bunker character was first seen by the American public when All in the Family premiered on January 12, 1971, where he was depicted as the head of a family.
All in the Family got many of its laughs by playing on Archie’s bigotry, although the dynamic tension between Archie and liberal Mike provided an ongoing political and social sounding board for a variety of topics.
