did they ever explain this?
>>216990675He was gay
>>216990675Hi. Married GenX here. Work tires you and coming home to an unkempt house puts you out of the mood. I experienced this during periods where each of my children were very young and we were overwhelmed. But Al was like that long after he needed to be, despite his kids being essentially grown, because his job truly sucked and his SAHM didn't do shit.
>>216990675The original actress they cast for Peg was Roseanne Barr. She quit as soon as ABC offered her her own show. During the last season of The Conners, a guest star appeared as one of Dan's old girlfriends and teased as a possible new fling. Two guesses who played her.
i always thought this show was just the howard stern radio shows in sitcom form, in fact when stern did his failed baywatch parody this show was its basis just without laughtrack
>>216990766>Lot of Boss Baby vibes
>>216990791retard
>>216990675because the hot body was attached to an obnoxious boner-killing personality
>>216990740How the fuck do you get tired from a shoe salesman job?
>>216990740Ah, a fellow Xer, eh?
>>216990675he was a fat, depressed, drunk...
>>216990675She's an ugly old blank
I've never seen Katey Segal's appeal, her face is fucking hideous even if from the neck down she is hot and her voice is likes nails on a chalkboard. I hate her.
I remember when they looked impossibly older than me and every year they get younger and younger
>>216990897>her voice is likes nails on a chalkboardShe was a touring backup vocalist, that was for the character https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harlettes
>>216990791the entire gag of the show rests upon shock jockey humour and stereotypes of the 80s. the show was created in tandem with stern's rise to prominence, and in order for it to be the irreverent satirical anti-sitcom sitcom of the 80s, "honeymooners but edgier and mean spirited", without stern there is no married with children, in fact this was the fox pitch to the writers, be edgy and politically incorrect like shock jockeys..... are you a zoomeroid if so i suggest sticking to calling people uncs on tiktok
>>216990972>>216990675Op pic is actually fucking with my head because of how good they both lookNeither of them was that attractive on the show
>>216990675Cause he was tired, demoralized and eating cheap food + when someone wants it so much you tend to pull back
>>216990897>her voice is likes nails on a chalkboardShe was doing a bit. Her voice is great when it's normal.
>>216991046>>216990882>>216990740Wasn't there a running gag that whenever there was a brief period where it looked like good things were happening in Al's life (before it went to shit by the end of the episode of course), he'd immediately fuck Peg's brains out and get all lovey dovey with her
>>216990862Getting angry at fat women.
>>216991041Best quality Ive seen the show was an Amazon web-dl and it still look liked a sharpened DVD source. That picture is probably closer to what we should be seeing.
>>216990675Okay child.
>>216991125iirc the joke was Al only wanted to pork Peggy if she acted like a proper wife, cooking & cleaning etc.Which in turn would tire her out, and she'd react mortified to sex like Al normally does
>>216990754Wow, interesting info. Yeah all those jokes about her being horny and it being hell for him to sleep with her all make sense now. I'm surprised nobody stopped to consider how hot Katey Sagal looked and how maybe those jokes no longer make much sense.
>>216990862the job is probably not so bad, but the rush hour traffic jam is
>>216990675He looked up her Early Life section
>>216990675>married with childrenThats the joke, husbands don't want sex anymore.>>216990740I was also married, My wife hit the wall hard after kids, didnt find her attractive for a long while but when we got back into sex she just wasn't bothered putting any effort in.Marriage is a real boner killer.
>>216990754>Two guesses who played herThis beautiful lady?
>>216991377Peggy Wanker Bundy =/= (((KKatey Sagal)))
>>216990675Because she was annoying and would never shut up. Just imagine having to fuck that thing? For me it would take some concentration to keep it up.
Did you guys know Katey Sagal had twin sisters?
If I was Al Bundy I think I'd dump the family and console myself to collecting cans.
>>216990675Why did this show try to convince me the neighbor wasn't fuckable?
>>216991508Crazy how much this resembles my family in the 80's and 90's. Only difference was my father was an electrician and didn't like sports.
>>216991582>was an outspoken feminist lesbian irl>was also a writer on the show and penned many of the jokes that should personally piss her off the mostpeople were built different back then in ways we don't fully grasp
>>216991582Because she's a chicken head. Neighbor or not who wants to go around fucking a chicken head?
>>216991482They used to do Doublemint gum commercials.
>>216991027I actually watched it first-run, Moye and Leavitt were doing back-and-forth co-antagonist sitcoms well before MWC. God I wish this show had lasted longer and not just because of Caren Kaye's tits.I'm trying to tell you Stern was just one of many snarklords of the time, he was a symptom not a cause.https://youtu.be/UaHvJd7PRCA
>>216991652Very interesting. I'm sure even she has changed now as well and would probably apologize for the jokes she wrote. Sad state of affairs.
>>216990791Person who only ever posts on twitter: "This reminds me of that twitter post".
>>216991318The ep where she's forced to clean a table and her ass is wobbling rhythmically in his face then he puts on the most cartoonish horny/stupid expression imaginable is the one you're thinking of; by the end she's actually sore from all the fucking and regrets unintentionally turning him on.
>>216991652It's called having a sense of humor. It's also okay not to take yourself too seriously so you don't get caught up in bullshit that doesn't matter. It's also the same mindset that gets shit done. Instead of being upset at a television show you can work at important things.Plus, the show made fun of Al all the time too. Every character was a parody of a certain archetype
Why couldn't they carry the raunchy sitcom torch?
>>216990675cause kelly was hotter
>>216991698You made me look that up, I thought it was the Juicyfruit gum girls.
>>216990862I assume it's a pretty soul-crushing bore of a job and makes you tired of life to the point you just want to stew in your own contempt for your parents/God and the accident of conception that meant the one particular sperm cell that made you was first to the egg.I'd be tired too
>>216991340They really had to work to make her look cheap. Every one of those ugly fucking K-Mart outfits she wore were in fact careful cotton duplicates made of the real polyester ones they'd buy because they reflected too brightly under studio lighting. The unintentional side effect is they all ended up tailored to Sagal's figure, making you notice that more than the trashy prints and tacky ruffles.
>>216990862Have you seen the show?
>>216991406No, Katey Sagal, once again replacing Roseanne Barr.https://screenrant.com/the-conners-season-7-episode-1-louise-never-truly-part-of-the-family-explainer
>>216991582When they hired Ted McGinley to be her replacement husband I thought "oh great, the whitebread himbo who can't act" and then he turned out to be hilarious. She was born to write and direct, acting was never going to let her play any other type.
>>216991968If she was going to stand in for Roseanne, I'm surprised they didn't just stick her in a moo moo and hair curlers and ignore her request to do her own character design.
>>216991448>Just imagine having to fuck that thing?My first cartoon crush was Alexandra Cabot. Nasal hatefucks with tight bodies are my thing.
>>216992120No point if the replacement wasn't another cow
>>216990675She just wanted to have sex so she could criticize him the whole>Is that as fast you can go>I had forgotten how small you were>Are you almost done yet?Then she would very obviously fake an orgasm and tell him it was over.
>>216992201There's one burn I never forget where she's with Marcy and she says "Men. The only thing they're good for, they're no good AT."
>>216990675Because every man was secretly gay before the 00s, Hollywood told me.
>>216992201Women will complain about anything. After she died we found my grandmother's old diaries from when she was young and in them she was complaining about my grandfather's dick being too big and not wanting to have sex with him anymore because of it.
>>216992360Did your mom think it was too big as well?
>>216990675She was pegging him, hence the name is a tongue in cheek reference
>>216990675TAKEMYWIFEPLEASE
This show gave me a cougar fetish. To this day I'm still looking for those elusive horny 45+ ladies...
>>216990862Its embarrassing, mostly dealing with women all day, probably have to touch and smell sweaty feet all day. Some jobs aren't exhausting from the physical toll but the mental one. You can get burned out on customer service because its mind numbing and infuriating even if you are sitting in a chair all day.
>>216990675Because it was a demoralization psyop
>>216990766dude son of the beach was amazing what are you talking about
>>216990675She's not hot though
>>216991219More like Katey Seagull>CA-CAW!
>>216993338but it did fail nonetheless
>>216991582she is literally hillary
>>216991701there is no trump without stern he is(even if indirectly) the cause of all modern populism
