I'd like to welcome the *many* members who have joined our ranks since October, when we started all this. We would like to briefly tell you what this newsletter is about. This newsletter is to inform everyone what's going on in the Fan Club and what's going on in the show. We will also have interesting things, such as, quotes, surveys, and contests. We had fun making this for you and we will look forward to hearing from you in the future. -------Tony Gil President of the MWC fan Club and Editor in Chief of the Married...with Children Fan Club newsletter. ======================================================================== INTRODUCTION BY THE VICE-PRESIDENT OF THE FAN CLUB I too would like to welcome you all to this first newsletter. There are a lot of Bundy fans all around the world, many who speak and understand little or no English. So I'll be translating the newsletter into German to take care of German-speakers. I'll also try to focus on what's currently happening in Central Europe. That includes current airing times, episode guides and listings. I know that many German(-only) speakers have little interest in an "English- only" club, so I hope my efforts will get many German speakers to join too. -------Robert Cerveny - Vice-President of the MWC fan club and Contributing Editor of the Married ... With Children Fan Club newsletter. ======================================================================== INTRODUCTION BY THE DEPUTY VICE-PRESIDENT OF THE FAN CLUB Married... With Children is the longest running comedy series in the world. Now in its 11th season, bigger than ever, it still manages to captivate people from all over the world. This is the international fan club, with members from the US, Scandinavia, Germany... literally from the whole world. We all take part in Al's and the rest of the gang's, sometimes tragic and sometimes amusing, lives. I call upon all you members of this fan club, to make this a great club.
