All in the Family: Archie Is Cursed (1973)

Synopsis of All in the Family: Archie Is Cursed

Even under normal circumstances, Archie feels threatened by his intelligent and resourceful neighbor Irene Lorenzo. When Irene challenges Archie to a high-stakes game of pool, he is so intimidated by the possibility of losing that he begs off, using a "bad back" as his excuse. Written by John Rappaport, Michael Ross, and Bernie West, this episode is a low-key spoof of the "Battle of the Sexes" tennis match between Bobby Riggs and Billie Jean King, which had occurred only a few weeks earlier. "Archie Is Cursed" first aired on December 15, 1973. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi
