Too many “what got cancelled too soon” questions, what’s a show that went on too long?

Hard mode: no The Walking Dead

    I think I’d like to point out that they shouldn’t have had even one season. It’s so fucking offensive.

      By today’s standards, yeah. At the time, too, but the ultimate message was groundbreaking and progressive. Archie was written as a bigot for the purpose of creating conflict and addressing difficult social issues. The actor who played him, Carroll O’Connor, was liberal in his personal politics, as was the producer, Norman Lear.

      I appreciate the show for what it was attempting, not because I worship Archie Bunker.

        Did you know he was the inspiration for Cartman on South Park? The creators were fans of all in the family and thought it was too bad that you couldn’t write character like Archie anymore. But then they realized if they made it a cartoon kid they could.
