All In The Family UNSCRIPTED! - Archie makes Mike laugh #AllintheFamily #ArchieBunker #RobReiner

Показать описание

In the 1975 episode: "Mike's Pains" - Archie (Carroll O'Connor) goes "off script" and ad-libs a line that forces Mike (Rob Reiner) to break character. The original script:
Archie: "... because I can't stand people who are always knocking minororities" (sic)
Mike: "Gloria! You better get down here. I can't stand being with this guy alone."
But Carroll O'Connor ad-libbed: "What's the matter ... my fly open?"

I think that silent stare they held after the fly line is what almost did him in. Lol

"I'm doing a lot of stuff you used to do." -Carroll O' Connor's letter to Jackie Gleason

I don't think I've ever seen a moment on this show where they looked like they were going to break character. This was so hilarious!

Greatest Sitcom in TV history. Period.

Kudos to Rob for staying in character, even though you could tell he wanted so bad to lose it.

I could see in Caroll O'Connor's eyes he wanted to break character. He is just too good to do so.

He looked like he was gonna crack with the fly line but he held it back

Rob did a great job of not breaking character. A pro.

Carrol O'Connor showed what a genius he was by ad-libbing that line, and it's very fortunate that the production staff agreed to leave it in for the broadcast.

Mike turns away from the camera as not to laugh at the fly joke !

Improvising acting, live? They were all great at it. But Carroll O'Connor was especially good at it. To throw that line out there like that. Props to both Carroll & Rob with this scene. Rob did have to take a step back for a sec because that line did challenge him ( He clearly had to hold back a grin but did it well) . Always fun to watch. Never gets old.

O'Conner caught Reiner off got destroyed in this clip.

Imagine this show on in prime time today! We lost our sense of humor. Funniest show ever.

Carol O'Connor was so brilliant in this role, he has you believing that this is not an act but that Archie Bunker is an actual person. When you talk about blurring the lines between actor and character, this is as close as it gets!
