Details about Married… with Children

Married… with Children began broadcasting in the year 1987, after which the series gained steady popularity for its hilarious premise. Though it is rare to come across such old TV shows on streaming platforms, Prime Video becomes the savior in this case. The storyline of this series featured the struggles of the Bundy family. Al Bundy worked as a simple salesman with a meager income.

He regrets the life he now has because in his high school days, he was anything but ordinary. His extraordinary skills at football brought him to the forefront of fame amongst the students.

However, life had other plans for Al Bundy as he slowly began to get diverted in a completely different direction. Marriage is definitely not an easy situation for Al. His economic situation becomes the most difficult aspect of his marriage. He not only has to look after his wife and himself, but also has children. Hence, life is definitely not a piece of cake for the Bundy family.

Al Bundy’s life is filled with difficulties because of his dying career. Yet, he has the voracity for the simple pleasures that life provides him with, despite the struggles. The most intriguing aspect of his life is the past that he still holds on to.

His football days are something he wants to bring back, but it is hard to make happen. Al’s economic situation also puts him at a disadvantage with his wife. His family members mostly disrespect him, a feeling that he also shares towards them; however, he never backs away from protecting his family from difficult situations.

Al’s relationship with his wife, Peggy, in Married… with Children, brings forth a distinct level of humor. Peggy regrets getting married to Al, as she is unable to get the things she desires because of Al’s economic condition. However, she sometimes uses her skills to get Al’s money and use it for shopping, which often causes Al more trouble as he is unable to maintain the household.
