''704 Hauser'' is an American sitcom that aired on CBS from April 11 to May 9, 1994. A spinoff of ''All in the Family'' (the final of several), the series is built around the concept of a black family, the Cumberbatches, moving into the former Queens home of Archie Bunker years after Bunker had sold the house located at 704 Hauser Street. The ''All in the Family'' character Joey Stivic, Archie's grandson, makes a cameo in the first episode. ==Overview== Norman Lear created the series during the time when conservative talk radio was experiencing its initial upswing in popularity in the United States, particularly in the form of Rush Limbaugh. Lear felt that the time was right for a new show to explore some of the issues being discussed, and ''704 Hauser'' was even more explicitly political than ''All in the Family''. John Amos, a veteran of the earlier Lear sitcom ''Good Times'' (itself a spin-off of the ''All in the Family'' spin-off ''Maude''), starred as Ernie Cumberbatch, while Lynnie Godfrey played his wife, Rose. T.E. Russell played their live-at-home son, Thurgood Marshall "Goodie" Cumberbatch.〔()〕 The show featured a reversal of the original ''All in the Family'' formula. Ernie and Rose Cumberbatch were blue collar, working class Democrats, while their son Goodie was an assertive conservative activist in the vein of Armstrong Williams, Walter Williams, or Thomas Sowell. To add further conflict, Goodie's girlfriend, Cherlyn Markowitz (Maura Tierney), was white and Jewish, with whom he had chosen a celibate relationship. Audiences did not respond favorably to the show, which was cancelled after just five episodes (with one episode remaining unaired). In the second episode of the first season of ''All in the Family ''("Writing the President"), Archie mentions a black friend of his from "the old neighborhood" named Roundtree Cumberbatch; Mike replies that he thinks the name is made up. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「704 Hauser」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
