All in the Family, The Jeffersons Receiving Soft Reboot

[kemcha]

Have to admit that when you really examine it, George Jefferson is just the black version of Archie Bunker. I found it hilarious when they showed George's reaction when his son was dating the Willis' white daughter. He about flew through the roof in a rage, much in the same way as Archie Bunker when he tried to make an alliance with Henry Jefferson when the two of them started a petition to keep Latinos from moving into the neighborhood.

The raw versions of the episodes can be found on the DVD home releases.

It's similar to the pilot episode of Dukes of Hazzard when Bo and Daisy are talking about inbreeding when she remarks "that's never stopped our family before". Warner Brothers production stopped making allusions to inbreeding after the pilot episode aired.

There was even an attempt to creatively edit those TV shows for home video release, to water down the content. Thankfully, that never went through. This happened before Warner Brothers started releasing the Dukes of Hazzard to home video. I imagine some similar attempt was with Sony Pictures for The Jeffersons and All in the Family.
