Star-Studded 'All in the Family,' 'The Jeffersons' Live Event Set at ABC

cant' see any of the actors picked in their roles.

Wanda Sykes as Louise?

Maybe as Florence, but NOT Louise

Harrelson as Archie?

I can see Foxx as George, if I squint REAL hard.

They should have used the casting director chosen for Stan and Ollie.

Just watched it, and they had a good take on the originals.

Carroll O'Connor was a classically-trained actor. A Shakespearean. Could play anything matching his physicality.

Harrelson, while entertaining, plays Harrelson.

Be interesting to see who the original 'Meathead' would pick for the part.
