In 1977, “Edith Is Raped.” “All in the Family” had a unique ability to raise serious topics within a sitcom format. Never more so than in the episode in which Edith Bunker was sexually assaulted by a stranger in her living room. There are jokes early on (her attacker compliments her scent, and Edith says, “Thatʹs Lemon Pledge”). But her vulnerability and shame become almost tangible. The episode was used at rape-crisis centers for years. WITNESS: David Dukes played the rapist: “When I tore her dress, the [studio] audience went 'grrr.' It was the only time in my career that an audience has growled at me.” With her fiftieth birthday cake baking in the oven, “All in the Familyʹs” Edith Bunker opens her door to a detective looking for a rapist. He then pulls a gun on her, revealing he is the rapist. When her cake starts to burn, Edith manages to shove it in her attackers face, knees him in the family jewels and push him away. The studio audience even yells for her to “RUN!!! RUN!!!” as she makes her way out the front door, and into television history.
