Will Al break the bowling record? Not with Peggy's help, he will not. Al has a shot at glory, and his wife has other plans.

This clip comes from Married with Children Season 4 Episode 19, "Peggy Turns 300." Al plans to ditch Peggy on her birthday and break the bowling alley record. Peggy catches him in the act, tags along with the family, and bowls a perfect game.

Bowling is sacred ground for Al Bundy, which is exactly why anything that disrupts it is comedy gold. This storyline is one of the show's best uses of Al's pride.

Moments like this are why Married with Children is still quoted today. The writing is sharp, the timing is perfect and the Bundys never try to be anything other than themselves. This is the show doing what it did best: taking an everyday situation and pushing it until it becomes completely absurd.
