Ladies of the '90s -- Then & Now
Looks like we won't be seeing Peg and Al Bundy popping bonbons and bickering on their couch anytime soon.

David Faustino gave us all hope for a possible "Married ... with Children" reunion last year, when he announced a spinoff idea that included that entire cast ... but, according to Ed O'Neill, it may not ever see the light of day.

"I don't think so, I think we're finished," the "Modern Family" star revealed in an interview with AOL Build on Wednesday. "David Faustino pitched an idea to Sony about Bud moving back in the old house and being divorced and his ex-wife moves in, too, with his best friend and they’re struggling and Al and Peg are in Vegas – they won the lottery."

But ... it didn't go as planned.

"That was the idea, but I think they hit some legal problems. People who have to sign off on it wouldn't, so I don't think that’s going to happen," he continued. "And Katey [Sagal] and I would only have been able to do one or two a year because we're contracted – well, she was, now I certainly am [to 'Modern Family']. But it doesn't look like that's going to happen. But you never know."

So you're saying there's a chance?

O'Neill's not exactly hurting for work these days though. In addition to his Emmy-nominated work on "Modern Family," he's also doing a voice for this weekend's "Finding Dory."

"None of us [actors] deserve great careers or wonderful careers, none of us," he reflected in the same interview. "I've been lucky to work so long and, at this stage in my career, then to really fall into 'Finding Dory,' you got to say you’re fortunate."

Are you sad the Bundys won't be coming back

No way the jokes fly in today's politically correct world....fat chicks would riot over being fat shamed ....feminists would riot over Kelly being dumb and a slut

ABC would have to Roseanne it and find a way to appeal to the conservative Roseanne audience they lost

That's ironically how the OG show gain recognition....

How does family guy stay on the air?

Y'all talk what y'all don't know.

I think it being a cartoon and around for so long might give it some immunity

But even the simpsons caught some from the PC police and they got rid of Apu

only thing I can think of is Family guy doesn't specifically target any protected classes and isn't known for making fun of any particular group of people...it's usually random celebrity or pop culture mocking ...not like how AL Bundy is known for constant fat jokes
