Did anybody catch this? I really wanted to, but I had to work. I recorded it, but when I got home, I discovered that I had a bad signal at the time so it was unwatchable. I hope they re-air it soon... or maybe I will try streaming it.

Wow, I had no idea Norman Lear was still alive. He must be around Carl Reiner's age. I'd love to see the All in the Family remake!

Neither did I. I hope he’s enjoying retirement. He definitely deserves it.

ABC will re-air this special on Saturday night at 7:00 PM, for anybody who’s interested. Check your local listings for details.

I have to work again, so I’m going to try to tape it again. Channel 7 has always been difficult to keep a good signal throughout the day at this house, so wish me luck!
