The big news during season five of Married...With Children is the remarriage of Marcy Rhoades (Amanda Bearse), next-door neighbor of the boorish Bundys. After a drunken binge at a bankers' convention, Marcy wakes up to discover that she is the wife of one Jefferson D'Arcy (Ted McGinley), whose lack of charm is matched only by his lack of ambition. Not that Al and Peg Bundy (Ed O'Neill, Katey Sagal) don't have misadventures of their own. Taking his family on a car trip for Labor Day Weekend, Al spends all three days stuck in "typical" Chicago freeway traffic. Peggy begins popping birth-control pills at the precise moment that Al is hoping to father a child so that he can inherit a fortune. The couple's daughter Kelly (Christina Applegate) miraculously graduates from high school, becomes the commercial spokesperson for "Weenie Tots," and dates a guy twice her age. And son Bud (David Faustino) fulfills a lifelong dream by finally scoring with a chick. As if to make certain that Married...With Children doesn't completely lose its grip on reality, we are offered episodes in which Al Bundy witnesses an invasion by little green aliens, and (in the season's final episode) the family goes prospecting for gold in the town of Lucifer, NM -- just off Route 666. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
