Title: Weak Overview of Historical Series That Lacks Original Research or New Information
Review: The author of this book merely went through some old magazine interviews and pieced together this book about All in the Family. The author also wrote books on "The Honeymooners," so it's no surprise that throughout the book she compares All lin the Family with The Honeymooners, though she never really makes her case. Other than one chapter near the end that analyzes the controversy over the such, this ends up being an enlarged TV Guide-style article praising the series without going into any depth. It does have an episode guide but the books is just the minimal that could be written on the subject and just about anyone who watched the show could have done it as well as this author.
Is the review positive or negative?
