IS the Episode "Writing the President" INCOMPLETE?
Seems to me this episode has no ending. Archie does write the letter to the president and goes to mail the letters and then the episode is OVER? Nothing about a response to the letter just mailing the letter and then the closing credits start to roll. Thoughts?

Because I would think if it was "Meet the Bunkers" that TV Land would have shown that episode in the marathon.... have you ever seen that episode BTW?

We are getting off topic here, the point of this post was to ask AITF fans do they Agree that the episode-Writing the President" was Incomplete or NOT. If you saw Writing the President, do you think it's INCOMPLETE? |

If you see him leaving with the envelopes and you know he was planning on mailing I think it's safe to guess that he actually DID mail the letter. Perhaps the writers want the vegetative audience to exercise their brain? |
