There was a flashback episode in 1978 which was a three-parter but Archie was only seen in past clips. He never made an actual guest apperance on the show.

BTW: Welcome to the Boards!!!! Hope to see more of you.

It's hard to imagine ever having Archie Bunker visit George Jefferson. It's not even plausibly logical.

Archie wouldn't be visting George, Edith would hav visited Louise and would took Archie Along with her.

Well, I wish they had made an episode like that. It would've done good for the ratings.

I meant that it impossible for Archie to want to go and visit George. The only person I can think that he would've wanted to visit was Lionel, who he considered a friend.

Why didn't Norman Lear do crossovers like Garry Marshall did?

Screenwriter · 01-07-2005, 04:03 PM

Because Norman Lear was an innovater. He didn't copy people.

GARFIELDKOOL · 01-07-2005, 05:58 PM

You are so right. But I wanted to see his cast members from his great sitcoms cross paths.

Do you mean like a two parter, one being on All in the Family, the conclusion being on The Jeffersons? That would've been cool. But what could the episode have been about?

Once again, Archie would have never been a VISITOR because He was not Friends with George or Louise. Edith would have been visting Louise because they were good friends and dragged Archie along even though even probably wouldn't have wanted to go.

Yes, but he'd want to see Lionel. Because he considered Lionel a friend.

Yeah probably if it was some sort of special occasion like it was on All in the Family.

I know he considered him a friend but Archie would not have visited Lionel in Manhattan if there was not a party or some other occasion. The distance they lived from each other it would have had to be a special occasion for a Bunkers visit.
