'Married… With Children' Cast: Where Are They Now?

One of the most successful families in TV history: The "Bundy" Family of 'Married... with Children', pictured here in 1987. The show was on the air on FOX from 1987 until 1997. The main characters of the show sure don't look like they did years ago when the sitcom started. We‘re going to reveal to you what "Al", "Peggy" and the others. are doing nowadays…

"Al Bundy" probably was the role of his life for Ed O’Neill. He was the perfect fit for the role of the grumpy, weird but warm-hearted head of the "Bundy" family. For this part, O‘Neill was even nominated for two Golden Globes.

O'Neill is still highly active in his career. He starred as the patriarch "Jay Pritchett" on ABC's 'Modern Family' from 2009 until its end in 2020, a role that solidified his status as a long-running TV presence. In addition to his TV success, O'Neill has voiced characters in several films, including 'Finding Dory' (2016), 'Ralph Breaks The Internet' (2018), and 'The Star' (2017). He continues to be involved in other projects, including his role in the 'Live Action Family Guy' series in 2021 and currently in the upcoming 'No Activity' revival. His enduring career proves his versatility in both comedy and voice acting.

Katey Sagal starred as "Peggy Bundy" for all ten seasons of the popular sitcom.

After 'Married... with Children', Sagal voiced the character "Leela" on 'Futurama', becoming a staple of animated TV. She then took on another long-running role on '8 Simple Rules for Dating My Teenage Daughter' (2002-2005) before starring in 'Sons of Anarchy' (2008-2014), which was created by her husband, Kurt Sutter. Sagal appeared in films such as 'Pitch Perfect 2' (2015) and 'Bleed for This' (2016). Since 2016, Sagal has focused on television, with recurring roles on 'The Conners' and other projects. Her acting continues to impress across both comedy and drama.

Amanda Bearse played "Al's" annoying neighbor "Marcy D‘Arcy". She has always been "Peggy's" best friend and at the same time "Al's" nemesis. In line with her being a feminist and an environmentalist, "Marcy" is also the founder of an anti-men support group, which meets regularly…

While Amanda Bearse hasn’t had many prominent roles since 'Married... with Children', she has made occasional appearances in TV series, including a couple of brief guest spots. She has also explored behind-the-scenes work, directing several TV series and films. Nowadays, Bearse resides in Los Angeles with her partner and two adopted daughters, living a quieter life away from the public eye.

As "Kelly Bundy", Christina Applegate was definitely not the brightest bulb... Although the actress is pretty smart in real-life, she played the part of the blond and dimwitted daughter of the "Bundy" family well and was quite convincing.

Applegate has enjoyed a varied and successful career post-'Married... with Children'. She starred in 'Anchorman' (2004) and its sequel, 'Alvin and the Chipmunks' (2007), and the 'Bad Moms' films. Her most recent success came with the Netflix series 'Dead to Me' (2019-2022), where she received widespread praise for her performance. Applegate has also become an advocate for breast cancer awareness following her own diagnosis and has worked on several charitable causes. Her ongoing career reflects her resilience and talent.

David Faustino’s character "Bud" (far right) was the youngest of the family and self-proclaimed ladies' man. Seeing how he always looks up to "Al", the youngster never really had any other chance to be any different than his father.
