In order to run for public office, George Jefferson must have all his neighbors sign a petition in his favor. Yes, all the neighbors -- including Archie Bunker. But what will Archie demand in return for his support of George's political aspirations? It was clear when "George and Archie Make a Deal" first aired on November 30, 1974, that Sherman Hemsley (George Jefferson) had outgrown his supporting-player status and would soon have a series of his own. This particular episode was written by David P. Harmon. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi
