As a teenager, I never understood why Al rejected sex with Peg

Because he was a normal person and not an incel from 4chan?

I feel sorry for saying this, but he was the weak link of the show and a really terrible actor.

Ahh, on my darkest of days, this episode never fails to lift my spirits.

[Obese shoe store customer] How dare you say that to my face!
[Al Bundy] Well, I'd say it behind your back, but my car's only got half a tank of gas!

MWC had one of my favourite lines of all time:
"My life has been one long month... helluary."
Always (mis)quote it when things are going badly and somebody asks me how I am

Katie Sagal is cool but I can't believe some of the comments here about her being a super model.
Always found her very unattractive. Haven't watched the show since I was a kid so may need to re-watch just in case. The whole family seemed unlikeable to me.
Different strokes for different folks I suppose!

As a modern philosopher once said:
"No matter how hot she is, someone somewhere is sick of dealing with her shit"

I just watched the Mr. Shoe episode and they address this.
Al borrows 100k to invest in a shoe hotline that fails, in the end he goes to court and the banks agree to extend his mortgage for 100 years so he can pay the mortgage and the 100k he borrowed.
He says he will have it paid off in 2157.

I actually found Marcy’s original Hubble Steve better than Darcy…Darcy was good but Steve seemed to bounce of al much better but Darcy always felt like he was just along for the ride

Don’t forget they were also fat, ugly middle-aged men, so they could relate to Al. Hey, nothing has changed in 30 years!

Maybe her nickname “peg” wasn’t just an abbreviation…

Steve Rhoades was a banker with a brain.
Jefferson D'Arcy was a bartender with nice hair.

Roseanne managed 10 seasons. I'll refrain from calling anyone from that cast "ugly".

The 90's were a magical time, what would be viewed as an unattainable paradise today was just alright, I guess, kinda sucks back then. I was too young to appreciate it back then, but coming of age after 9/11, the 90's were a fucking cornucopia of Americana.

D'Arcy was an fbi agent that failed to kill Castro. He can't work as part of his hiding.

As someone who went from a child in the 80s to a young adult in the 90s I tend to agree.
911 really fucked shit up and it's been all downhill since.
There's a reason it's called the last great decade, and I hope one of the decades I live through can be better than it was.

That 2 hr timeslot of 90210 and Melrose Place might had been the best ever.
Add in MwC, Simpsons, Batman Animated Series and rerun of Fresh Prince. Buffalo Fox 29 was the best. And Benny Hill too at 10 pm in the 80s and early 90s.

Imagine tring to do Benny Hill humor in 2021.
Shit was funny. I don't know why we have to ignore human nature, and the things we find inherently funny to appease a loud small group who might be offended.
Back in Married with Children days Fox made fun of those people with episodes and side eyed jokes

The way she hoists her ass as she does those tippy top steps. That makes her a soft 8.

It wasn't 9/11, it was the end of good music.

Peg is probably supposed to be unattractive in the show, but they will never cast some one unattractive for the part. Hermonie in Harry Potter is supposed to be unattractive but Emma Watson is obviously not unattractive. Hollywood does not have the bravery to cast unattractive females for unattractive female roles (for the most part).

Hey now, I only meant she was a good looking kid. In the books she is written as quite ugly.

The guy can't catch a break. The monotony of life and keeping s stable family/married life gets a little repetitive but if your spouse has the same thought process then you'll value the companionship more as the years go by.
I tell that to my wife all the time. I am grateful for being married and can't wait for 20 years to validate that but wouldn't want to rush it and live every day to appreciate the journey.
My wife is pretty attractive but every guy knows that feeling and you love them but they have their ways of being their own Peggy.

That last response of mine was the politically correct one.
What sums up Al's life is that he worked so hard to get the first parking spot after so many years.
He remembers the day he parked so far that he needed to know Spanish. That's how far he had to drive and how long he had to sell shoes to get a little respect.
To commemorate the occasion he finally got his own name on his parking space -
