Few television shows have left as substantial and enduring a footprint on American popular culture as Norman Lear’s masterpiece All in the Family. This groundbreaking comedy series looked at the state of the world through the eyes of an argumentative but loving family and gave us some of the most fully dimensional characters in television history. The jokes had a million targets, aiming at race, politics, sex and human foibles, but the humor was firmly rooted in the characters of Archie, Edith, Mike and Gloria.

This complete series set from Shout! Factory is a long-overdue celebration of the enormously influential program and offers fans a collection to treasure for years to come. We have all 208 episodes on a 27 discs, plus a bonus disc loaded with bonus features! The bonus features include a new interview with Norman Lear, documentaries, original pilots, a 40 page collectible book with essays by television critic Tom Shales and media professor Marty Kaplan and more! Those were the days!

This landmark and hysterical comedy features one of the most beloved families in TV history, the Bunkers. Headed by the opinionated Archie (Carroll O'Connor), his long-suffering wife Edith (Jean Stapleton), his daughter Gloria (Sally Struthers) and his liberal son-in-law "Meathead" Mike (Rob Reiner), All in the Family broke incredible ground by addressing controversial subjects never tackled on sitcoms before.
