Yeah, but that show approached ignorance and racism in such a way that it made Archie out to be the butt of the joke 99% of the time. I think that the show actually did more to help the anti-racism sentiment than it's given credit for. Sure, it shows him as a racist hardhead, but by his character being so over the top, it instantly associates his ignorance with being out of the norm and not acceptable.

Maybe I should think less about the effects of all in the family on the american psychi lmao...

...I need sleep.
