Gloria has always been aware that Mike is against overpopulation. Even so, she is shocked when Mike states, flat out, that he doesn't want any children. The ensuing argument spreads throughout the Bunker household, affecting not only Archie and Edith, but next-door neighbor Irene Lorenzo as well. Written by Dixie Brown Grossman, "Gloria's Shock" made its first CBS network appearance on October 26, 1974. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi
