Metal thrashing mad!
8 December 2022
For their 20th wedding anniversary, Al gives Peggy a postcard. She demands romance and sex to make up for his thoughtlessness.

Meanwhile, Bud wins a competition to have thrash metal band Anthrax come to his house to play at a party for him and fifty of his friends. Kelly and Bud send their parents on a surprise vacation to Florida to get them out of the way, Peggy and Al unaware that the trip is a time-share scam.

Back in Chicago, the kids welcome Anthrax into their home, but a snowstorm means that none of Bud's friends can make it to the party.

I've been a thrash metal fan since the '80s, so seeing Anthrax guest starring in one of my favourite TV shows was great fun. When Anthrax eat Peggy's mystery pack in the fridge, they begin to trip out and then rock out, trashing the Bundy home in the process. Bud and Kelly mosh to the music and even Marcy joins in with the mayhem!

I haven't a clue who Edd 'Kookie' Byrnes is (he was apparently in a show called Sunset Strip, which I'm not sure was shown this side of the pond), but he gets to sing a cheesy song (his show's theme?) with Anthrax at the end.
