I really hated this show. Unlike All in the Family, where Archie's extreme conservatism was made to look foolish, Norman Lear obviously agreed with all of the looney liberal ideas that Maude was always spouting so her extreme views were played as perfectly acceptable and right. Therefore there was never any strong counterpoint to balance her arguments.

Barbeau was good looking though, even with the poodle hair.
