All in the Family (1971)
1 mistake in season 6 - chronological order
Starring: Rob Reiner, Carroll O'Connor, Jean Stapleton, Sally Struthers
Archie Bunker: Sticks and stones may break my bones, but you are one dumb Polack.
Trivia: The LaSalle - a GM car produced in the 1930s - was immortalized in the opening credits when Jean Stapleton sang the line "Gee, our old LaSalle ran great." However, the line was somewhat slurred at first and people wrote in asking what she was saying. In later seasons the opening was refilmed and Stapleton sang the line slower and more phonetically so it could be understood.
Question: Since they had friends why couldn't the Stivics move in with them so they wouldn't have to put up with Archie?

Answer: Yes, Gloria and Michael have friends, but when they got married they decided it was best to live *rent free* with Edith and Archie, while Mike was going to college. Living with friends rent free, for quite a few years, is not an easy thing no matter how close the friends are with them. Since the Stivics needed their money to pay for the tuition and its other costs, their living arrangement made it all easier to deal with. Hence the Archie and Mike scenarios.
