Married with aliens
Married… with Children is an American television sitcom that aired on Fox, created by Michael G. Moye and Ron Leavitt. Originally broadcast from April 5, 1987 to June 9, 1997, it is the longest-lasting live-action sitcom on Fox and the first to be broadcast in the network’s primetime slot.
The show follows the suburban Chicago lives of Al Bundy, a once-glorious high school football player turned hard-luck women’s shoe salesman; his lazy wife, Peggy; their attractive, dumb and popular daughter, Kelly; and their smart, horny and unpopular son, Bud. Their neighbours are the upwardly mobile Steve Rhoades and his wife Marcy, who later gets remarried to Jefferson D’Arcy, a white-collar criminal who becomes her “trophy husband” and Al’s sidekick. Most story lines involve Al’s schemes being foiled by his own cartoonish dim wit and bad luck.
