Married… with Children (1)

The show follows the lives of Al Bundy (Ed O'Neill), a once-glorious high school football player turned hard luck salesman of women's shoes; his wife, Margaret "Peg" Bundy (played by Katey Sagal), a tartish, uneducated housewife with a large red bouffant hairdo, 1970s clothes, and funny walk caused by wearing high heels; Kelly, Al and Peggy's pretty, promiscuous, dimwitted daughter; and Bud, their unpopular, girl crazy, comparatively smart son (and the only Bundy who ever attended college). Their neighbors are the upwardly mobile Steve Rhoades and his wife Marcy, who later gets remarried to Jefferson D'Arcy. Most storylines involve a scheming Al being foiled by his cartoonish dim wit and bad luck. His rivalry and loathing of Marcy also play a significant role in most episodes.
