Kelly Bundy's Cheerleading Tryout | Married with Children

Kelly Bundy has her eyes on the cheerleading squad, and of course the whole Bundy household has opinions about it. In this clip from Married With Children Season 3 Episode 3, "Poke High," Kelly sets out to make the team, and the family reactions are everything you would expect from the Bundys.

The bigger story in the episode is pure Polk High gold. A young football player from Kelly and Bud's school is threatening two Bundy records at once. One belongs to Al, who still holds the mark for the most touchdowns in one season. The other belongs to Kelly, for refusing the kid's advances. Two family legacies on the line in one episode? That is peak Bundy.

Why is this a classic? Because Al's football glory days at Polk High are his proudest legacy, and watching a kid come close to his touchdown record is the kind of threat only a Bundy could take this seriously. Add Kelly's cheerleading ambitions and you get a perfect snapshot of the family's priorities.
