Love and marriage has done Ed O'Neill well over the years.

The sitcom star received the 2,446th star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame today, and both his current wife and the spouse who was by his side for 10 years turned out to honor him in front of an adoring crowd.

Oh, and we mean his wives from "Modern Family" and "Married... With Children," obviously.

"When I was in Colombia and I was a young, very beautiful girl, I would watch 'Married... With Children,' with Ed with his hand in his pants, talking with this very sexy Antonio Banderas accent—because in Colombia it was dubbed into Spanish," joked Sofia Vergara, who plays the 65-year-old's awfully hot, young wife on "Modern Family."

"So he talked perfect Spanish, and there I was sitting, and I would never in a million years think that I was going to grow up to marry Al Bundy," she continued. "Never, even if somebody had paid me to believe that...But to marry Al Bundy has been one of the most joyful things in my whole life."

It was O'Neill's first TV wife who kicked off the proceedings, however.

"I want to tell Eddie, he's one lucky mo-fo," offered Katey Sagal, who played the insufferable and long-suffering Peg Bundy. "Here he's got these two beautiful women that he's had in his life, hopefully this one as long as he's had me," she added, gesturing toward Vergara. "And I'm sure he will."

Then it was the man of the hour's turn to speak.

"As I'm standing here, it's a bit emotional," O'Neill began, "I can't help thinking that somewhere in the world, at this moment in a hospital, a beautiful little baby girl is being born. And when she grows up she's going to be my next wife on TV, and I look forward to that day."

But, more seriously, he added, "This is overwhelming. I want to thank the fans for being here. No fans, no show, no career."

Good on him. Hollywood star is kind of a gyp, but whatever. You have to pay a certain amount of money to the Star Walk administrators, or your fans and supporters do, and that's after you get approved for a spot. So it's not like an "award" award, but it's still cool. I want Al Bundy to be remembered, and Ed too. He was awesome as fuck in "Hutch"

Either I made up lies about the Boston Bomber or I fell for someone else's crap. Either way, I have absolutely no credibility and you should never pay any attention to anything I say, no matter what the context. Perm me if I claim to be an insider
Awesome. Out of all the celebrities I encountered during the last Presidential campaign, he was the nicest and most personable.

This also reminds me that FOX never got the rights to the theme song, so whenever I watch an episode or two on netflix it's got some shit library music over it.

Fox? You mean Sony, Fox doesn't own MwC.

Dunno about Netflix or other streaming services, but for DVDs, iirc Love and Marriage was removed Season 3 and up.

Sony didn't want to pay royalties to the song writers and Sinatra estate anymore from the looks of it.

I say that because the "special features" for the first two DVD seasons had "tributes to Sinatra" which were nothing more than ads for albums.

What? Cause of the Nips? If a prime time tv show from the late 90's (think that's where it's from. Looks like it's from last ep) can get away with it, I'm sure it's SFW.

Loved MWC back in the 90s. Me and my friends used to laugh at Al and drool over Kelly all the time.
I remember the episode when Al had a huge spider on his back. I dont have a gif of that, so I'll post Kelly instead :)

Looks like his star is in front of a shoe store. lawl

LOS ANGELES (AP) — Ed O'Neill's star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame is appropriately placed: in front of a DSW shoe store on Hollywood Boulevard.

O'Neill earned his fame playing shoe salesman Al Bundy on the long-running sitcom "Married With Children."

The Emmy-nominated star of "Modern Family" received his sidewalk honor Tuesday in a ceremony featuring his two TV wives, Sofia Vergara from ABC's "Modern" and Katey Sagal from "Married," which aired on Fox.

O'Neill called the honor overwhelming and thanked fans, then quipped, "Just think, somewhere in this world a baby girl is being born and she is going to be my next wife." Vergara is 26 years his junior, and Sagal 11.

The 65-year-old O'Neill attended Ohio University and Youngstown State. He was signed by the Pittsburgh Steelers but cut in training camp. He taught social studies before his acting career.
