EPISODE DESCRIPTION
All in the Family S07E19 Stretch Cunningham, Goodbye (Aired January 29, 1977)
All in the Family is an American sitcom television series that was originally broadcast on the CBS television network for nine seasons, from 1971 to 1979. Afterwards, it was continued with the spin-off series Archie Bunker's Place, which picked up where All in the Family had ended and ran for four more seasons through 1983.
Archie is shocked when his coworker Stretch Cunningham has died after cavorting with a young woman. Asked to give the eulogy, he enlists Mike's help, requesting Bible references. But the biggest shock comes at the funeral.
Boxcars711 gives this episode 4.5 Stars. "This self proclaimed critic can't begin to hold back his laughter as so many seem successfully capable of doing. Carroll O'Connor is brilliant, as usual, and there's no flaw in the writers talents or director's casting. A true classic episode. "
