Shoeless Al - S9-E25

Trivia: Writers Michael Moye and Ron Leavitt wanted the show to be a refreshing change from other family sitcoms at the time. They felt that too many shows featured "idealized" families who presented a proper, respectable image, and rarely struggled with money. By contrast, the Bundys would be inconsiderate, financially unstable, inappropriate, and lazy.
Trivia: A few spin-off shows were proposed. One involved Steve Rhoades being the dean at Bud Bundy's college. Another would be similar to "Friends", involving people who all knew Kelly Bundy. Christina Applegate also rejected another spin-off about Kelly. Yet another show would have been about members of the "NO MA'AM" organization, but Fox decided it was too risky.
