Which show did Lucille Ball hate, being mad that it was on the same network as her show?
Correct answer: All In The Family
Player Meyer
If you don’t like a show then don’t watch it. Archie was a racist but it was so over the top that you couldn’t take it seriously and Meathead was bent in the opposite direction
Newt
Player #48458, oh dear, some people just don't "get" irony...

I think that today All in the Family would not work because its polarity mirrors actuality today. It would hit too close to home. I could be wrong. I actually hope that it would allow both political factions to see the absurdity of our situation and decide to compromise once again. A pipe dream?

I wonder how a show that makes us laugh at racism would go over today.🤔

You would think that a woman who helped break the barrier for women in comedy would be more tolerant of all kinds of humor . But, we still love Lucy... and All in the Family.

Many white men were homophobic racist sexists in the 60s and 70s. (I dont think Carroll O'Connor was like that, though). One would think, with all her talent, she would appreciate good acting.

Childem, I'm afraid you're right.

All in the Family made America take a long hard look at itself.

And Lucy was responsible for getting Star Trek on the air. She obviously had some major clout.
