Even Archie Bunker who is admittedly racist, sexist hot headed and bigoted, could be compared to Charles Dickens Scrooge...much of what makes Scrooge who he is when we meet him is events that have shaped who he know is, and yet by the end of the tale he changes. Archie Bunker is very intolerant of anything differant when we first met him but yet he takes Mike (who he constantly calls a dumb Pollock) in an supports him through college, later he's also take in Teresa a Puerto Rican as a boarder and even defends her, and Stephane his half jewish niece. At one point Bunker even flat out refuses to join the KKK. Both characters are about redemption. King of Queens also shares similarities to Ralph Kramden as well. And to some degree Peter, Homer, Archie, Fred, Doug and so many others can even be traced back further to the character of Walter Mitty, also a common every day man who is a dreamer. I'm sure if you dig even further back in literature Mitty can even be called a carbon copy of some other character. Star Wars itself owes a lot to Japanese cinema, Saturday morning serial films and even to a degree The Wizard of Oz. The point is nothing is truely original at all, but that don't mean there's no room for differant takes on the same archtypes. That's why I can find room for both FG and Simpsons. |
