Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

Answer:

The theme song for 'All in the Family' was written by Charles Strouse (music) and Lee Adams (lyrics). The melody came from an older Russian folk song, 'Dorogoi dlinnoyu.'
The song was sung on 'All in the Family' by Jean Stapleton and Carol O'Connor, who played Edith and Archie Bunker, respectively. It served as an accurate analysis of the main character, Archie, with his nostalgic and idealized view of the past. It establishes his conservative character and underscores the show's conflict with social change.
This nostalgic song contrasts beautifully with the show's exploration of prejudice, politics, gender roles, and generational differences.
