Editorial Review:
Married … with Children still reigns as one of the most shocking TV comedies ever produced and the sixth season is no exception. The Bundy family continue to live their daily lives in complete disarray. Kelly lands her own talk show, Al gets a job as a private detective, Bud dates an extreme sporter, Peg and Marcy (Amanda Bearse) discover that they are both pregnant, and Steve Rhoades (David Garrison) returns to reclaim his wife. The season climaxes with a three-part episode in which the Bundys visit England.
Description of Married with Children - The Complete Sixth Season:
Even the many detractors of long-running sitcom Married with Children have to admit that sustaining such a superlative level of crass, cynical bile for so long is a artistic feat. The Bundy family--defeated father Al (Ed O'Neill, The Bone Collector), frustrated mother Peg (Katey Sagal, 8 Simple Rules), even more frustrated son Bud (David Faustino, Pucked), and slutty, dimwitted daughter Kelly (Christina Applegate, Anchorman)--savaged every earnest cliche imaginable about family affection as they clawed and fought for any scrap of food, money, respect, or dignity in their squalid lives. The cast completely understood the show's humor and bit into every vicious jab with zest.
The sixth season of this satirical show was controversial among fans. While some episodes are hugely popular (including a two-parter in which Kelly's public-access tv show becomes a hit, when Bud becomes faux-rapper Grandmaster B, or when Peg and Al's anniversary includes a visit from the speed metal band Anthrax), the storyline about Peg becoming pregnant (which ended abruptly when Sagal had a miscarriage in real life) and the season-ending three-parter about the Bundys going to England were criticized as desperate and pandering. But watching Married with Children on dvd makes those accusations seem beside the point. Even in its most cartoonish episodes, the show tossed off brutally bitter jokes that upturned our culture's sacred cows, spat in the face of both the priggish and the politically correct, and will make devoted viewers cackle with glee. As American culture grows more and more timid, Married with Children glows more brightly. Guest stars include former porn star Traci Lords, Jon Lovitz (The Critic), Fred Willard (Best In Show), and a pre-Friends Matt LeBlanc. --Bret Fetzer
Married with Children - The Complete Sixth Season Reviews:
Bittersweet season. 
2009-07-06 - Married with Children - The Complete Sixth Season in my opinion was the last enjoyable for this long-running sitcom. Katey Sagel was pregnant so the writers decided to make her character Peggy pregnant as well. It was a good idea but tradegy struck and Sagel had a miscarriage so the whole pregnancy thing was turned into a dream/nightmare sequence. After that this show really lost steam, season 7 was a mess and I never watched the remaining seasons, the magic was gone. Season 6 had some special episodes so I recommend this raunchy gem, enjoy!
season 6

Average Normal Family?
2008-02-09 - I can't get enough of Al and his "disfunctional" family. A comedy that really shows what life is like, even though most people won't admit that their family is exactly like Al's.
VIVA LA BUNDYS
2008-01-17 - This 1991-92 Season of Married With Children is a great DVD and I recommend it to any Bundys fan or viewer, but they still should have used the "Love & Marriage" song by Frank Sinatra like they originally used when "Married With Children" was on FOX.
The Bundys 6th Season is also the season when Jefferson D'Arcy(Ted McGinley) becomes a full-time co-star on Married With Children and the season when Marcy's ex-husband Steve Rhoades(Dave Garrison) tries to reunite with Marcy(Amanda Bearse) while being on the run from the FBI, plus this is the first and only season with a 3-parted episode, such as the 6th Season Finale episode when the Bundys win a vacation to London and get lost in England while they're at it.
In addition, ANTHRAX does a cameo appearance at the Bundy's house in this season as well when Kelley(Christina Applegate)and Bud(Dave Faustino) win a prize and sports celebrities Sugar Ray Leonard and Big Joe do a cameo appearance in the episode when Al(Edward O'Neill)gets hired to be the fall guy for a Zeus shoe commercial for Super Bowl Sunday, except Al doesn't even end up being shown on the commercials and gets too hurt in the process.
Kelley gets her own show in this season, but ends up getting fired when the show flops and cancels.
This season also takes me all the way back to memory lane to the recession we had back in 1992-1993 when George Bush, Sr. was the president along with the fact that I was 19 years old and living in my hometown(El Centro, CA)at the time when the Bundy's 6th Season was running on FOX.
In the meantime, I can hardly wait till the Bundy's 11th Season gets released on DVD this Fall since I just got word that Married With Children's 1996-97 Season is now scheduled to be released October 13th, 2009.
