Seven's Day!
Sylviastel11 December 2009
When newcomer Seven doesn't know his birthday, Peggy decides to give him a random day which turns out to be Al's birthday which she takes away. They decide to celebrate by taking him to Disneyland but it's really just a park in Chicago. Seven states "It's not Disneyland." Al's reasoning is that Seven's a hick like Peggy and her relatives and that he didn't know the difference but he does so the jokes on him. Anyway, a rich family has a permit to have a party of their own and the Bundys are designated a special area to not interfere with the spoiled brat's birthday party which includes skywriting, caterers, food, and guests. Anyway, typical Married with Children episode as the Bundys have to make Seven's day a special one.

I'm counting down the episodes...

Annoying brat Seven only appears in twelve episodes of Married With Children; I'm interested in seeing how they write him out of the show. A terrible woodchipper accident, perhaps...

This Seven-centric episode sees Peggy choosing a random date for the child's birthday as he doesn't know when his real birthday is. The date she picks just so happens to be Al's birthday. Al decides that they should celebrate in the public park, but a rich man has hired the place for his own son's party and sends the Bundys to a cordoned off dog doody area.

There are a few decent lines in this one - "She yum yummed me once in high school", "Don't ruin it by talking" - but with Seven in the mix, and being declared an official Bundy at the end after helping to beat up the other family, it's still tough to like. Fire up that woodchipper...

Warning: Spoilers
It's still funny but the episode contains too much cloying sentiment, with the sound track going, "Awwww," and whatnot. Seven, a malignant presence in the series, is arbitrarily assigned a birthday by Peggy -- after she first tries giving him the dates of her two children, both of which she's forgotten. It develops that the birthday is also Al's.

There is a picnic at the public park, with the piece de resistance being one frankfurter. They split the frankfurter between them and pass around one of those little plastic packets of mustard which they squirt into their mouths.

When the family is presented with a permit allowing a much richer family to have exclusive use of the park for THEIR birthday party, Bud is made to eat the warrant.

It's all as silly as it sounds, but that's not the problem with this episode. I mean, they're ALL silly but most of them had sparkling exchanges and sometimes hilarious comments.

This one has none of that. It's one of the duller entries.
