Married… With Children vs. the World

A rollicking account of the groundbreaking show from one of the show’s producers, featuring the voices of the stars, creators, and executives involved with bringing it to life. 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, became one of the longest running live-action sitcoms in television history and forever changed the way married life was portrayed on the very networks it so scathingly satirized.

But it was far from smooth sailing as the creators bucked up against Barry Diller - then CEO of FOX - on everything from casting to content and then butted heads with network standards as they sought to shatter traditional broadcast norms.
