[post_page_title]Ed’s Phone Calls.. To The Fans![/post_page_title]
Ed O’Neil used to use his free time on the set to call loyal fans who were celebrating their birthdays. One hand, this was very characteristic of the considerate actor we all know, Ed.
On the other hand, knowing the calls came from 1-800-collect, makes us think it was Al Bundy who was dialing their numbers. We guess 65 cents a minute is a small price to pay to talk to your favorite, television sitcom father.

During the show’s run, cameos and guest appearances were made by the cast’s family members. Ed O’Neil’s wife, Catherine Rusoff was a guest star twice. Joey Sagal (Katey’s brother) and Nancy Priddy (Christina;s mother) also made guest appearances here and there.
David Faustino was apparently quite the ladies man off-screen and two of his former girlfriends, Elaine Hendrix and Julia Teblak, got to appear in an each episode each.
