Editorial Reviews

Amazon.com

Here are more select episodes from the grungy, middle-class existence of the Bundy family, centerpiece of Fox TV's early hit series Married with Children. Choice bits include "A Man's Castle," finding Al (Ed O'Neill) in a crisis of masculine confidence after wife Peg (Katey Sagal) redecorates his bathroom fortress-of-solitude with frilly trappings. "Who'll Stop the Rain" concerns Al's misguided (and cheap) effort to fix a roof leak, resulting in multiple, earthbound falls. "Raingirl" is a good showcase for sexy comic actress Christina Applegate, playing Bundy daughter Kelly as a television station intern-turned-weather bunny suddenly offered a $250,000 contract; the problem is that her manager is also her bungling father, Al. "If Al Had a Hammer" finds the Bundy patriarch building a private room with his heirloom hammer--until the secret gets out. Gross, outrageous, but often sharp about the heaven-hell dichotomy of family life. --Tom Keogh

1.0 out of 5 stars They Have Ignored Our Cries!, February 10, 2003

By	Andy Radke (Guelph, Ontario CANADA) - See all my reviews

Despite the overwhelming public response to have this great season released in the form of complete season sets following the release of "Married With Children: The Most Outrageous Episodes, Vol. 1", it seems that our cries have fallen on deaf ears. Columbia/Tri-Star has decided to go ahead with a 2nd compilation set containing ONLY 5 meazily episodes. I love this show to death, but while lesser known sitcoms are getting the Royal treatment, the show that was innovative on so many levels recieves a paltry 5 episodes per disk.

For those who are interested, the episodes contained on this disk are as follows:

"A Man's Castle"
"Raingirl"
"Have You Driven A Ford Lately"
"If Al Had A Hammer"
"Who'll Stop The Rain?"

This disk, same as the first, features a "Salute To Sinatra" as well as extra trailers.

Why Columbia/Tri-Star would continue releasing this show in this calabre is beyond me. It's a perennial classic which definitely deserves the full season treatment. Geez, if "Sports Night", "Felicity" and "Larry Sanders" can be granted full season sets, then why on earth can't they do the same with this one. In my opinion, it is one of the best sitcoms ever released.

1.0 out of 5 stars Its official Season Sets are coming, July 7, 2003

By A Customer

Columbia Tristar officialy annouced that the first season of Married with Children is coming for release later this year. So why buy this. Why did Tristar ever release this. Some say it was the test demand for the show. Thats [not true. Everyone]knows there is more then enough Married with Children fans to make a killing. This was about ranking as much money of fans as possible by [cheating them]. These best ofs are terrible. The picture and sound quality is hardly any better then a TV broadcast and there are no extras. I hope the season sets have improved picture and sound and extras. Even if they don't they still will be better then this "best of" .

2.0 out of 5 stars Man, they just aren't even trying..., April 2, 2003

By	Wes (NC) - See all my reviews

Another volume of disappointment from the good folks at Columbia/TriStar, this time featuring the episodes "A Man's Castle," "Raingirl," "Have You Driven a Ford Lately," "If Al Had a Hammer" and "Who'll Stop the Rain." Is it just me or are the majority of the choices they make for 'Most Outrageous' not that outrageous? It seems by the views of CTS any of the 250+ episodes in their library can be considered 'Most Outrageous.' If they're going to continue releasing best-of compilations instead of the much more preferred seasonal sets the least they could do is release the absolute best episodes such as "Pilot," "NO MA'AM," "It's a Bundyful Life," or the controversial "Her Cups Runeth Over," just to name a few. Perhaps the worst part of this particular volume is the fact that the presentation of "If Al Had a Hammer" is the SYNDICATION version, complete with the shortened opening credits and the TV-PG logo in the top left corner! Just when you thought they were treating the show bad enough...
