Television Writer And Producer Richard Gurman Releases Married With Children Versus The World Arroe Collins: Unplugged & Totally Uncut

    • 娛樂新聞

Married. With Children burst onto the airwaves with a full-frontal attack on the myth of domestic tranquility depicted in family comedies since the dawn of TV. The outlier series, created by two rebellious writers given carte blanche from a fledgling FOX network, became one of the longest running live-action sitcoms in television history and forever changed the way married life was portrayed on the networks it so scathingly satirized. But it was far from smooth sailing as the creators, Michael Moye and Ron Leavitt, bucked up against Barry Diller-then CEO of FOX-on everything from casting to content and butted heads with network standards as they sought to shatter traditional broadcast norms. Married. With Children writer-producer Richard Gurman takes us behind the scenes of this boundary-breaking show to reveal how its inner workings were at times disruptive and contentious. At other times, as hysterical and raunchy-as the Bundy family themselves. Featuring exclusive interviews with the cast, including Ed O'Neill, Katey Sagal, David Faustino, Amanda Bearse, David Garrison and Ted McGinley, media moguls, network executives, writers, directors, critics, and even the woman who was so offended by one episode she launched a sponsor boycott that almost got the series canceled, Married. With Children VS. the World celebrates the rebellious, satirical vision of the show and the battle to keep it alive that paved the way for the tremendous diversity in family comedy style we see today.
