Al cannot handle being upstaged, especially by his own wife on the lanes. This clip catches the moment Peggy steals his thunder, and Al's reaction is worth the price of admission.

This clip comes from Married with Children Season 4 Episode 19, "Peggy Turns 300." Al tries to avoid spending Peggy's birthday with her by sneaking off to go bowling, but she catches him and ends up coming along.

Al's relationship with bowling tells you everything about him: big dreams, fragile ego and a family that always seems to get in the way.

Scenes like this are what made the Bundys one of television's most memorable families. 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.
