The Most Overindulgent MWC Episode Ever!
Camelot_200016 September 2017
The boys at NO MA'AM (National Organization of Men Against Amazonian Masterhood) are at it again. This time a greedy plan is hatched to give their org. church status to avoid paying taxes. Thanks to Marcy's first FANG victory against them, they inadvertently receive nationwide recognition and support from guys all over. After the hefty amounts of cash start flowing in, NO MA'AM takes on the guise of being a spiritually uplifting epicenter of all things "manly" when in fact, it's based on nothing more than greed, money, beer and hot chicks with "Big Uns".

'Reverend Al' takes the helm of this newly created empire until, of course, Marcy's FANG (Feminists Against Neanderthal Guys) launches another attack and defrocks the exalted leader by evidently showing what a hypocrite he truly was. It's an unforgettable showdown where the disgraced Reverend Al does a hilarious Jimmy Swaggart impression of the tearful "I have sinned!" speech.

This has gotta be one of the most outrageous moments in the history of Married with Children. The showdowns between Marcy and Al are always a treat and this particular one leaves no punches pulled. It's as zany as it can get and it does it with hilarious results. Another of my favourite MWC episodes.

Al finds religion.
BA_Harrison9 January 2023
At one of his NO MA'AM meetings, Al comes up with the idea of registering the group as a church so that they can avoid paying taxes. The tax fee Church of the Brown Bottle goes national, raking in donations from down-trodden men across the country, but Marcy's feminist group FANG exposes Al as a quiche-eating, dancing, theatre-going fraud by filming the man while on a romantic date with his wife Peggy.

A satirical swipe at fraudulent televangelists, and, in particular, a spoof of the Jimmy Swaggart scandal, complete with Al making his own 'I have sinned' speech, Reverend Al has its amusing moments, but I have never really been a fan of the whole 'NO MA'AM vs FANG' battle of the sexes, so this one didn't really do it for me as a whole. Also, Lucky the dog is no Buck.
