abc did not like the first pilot because they did not think archie and edith were good together but abc gave lear the money to make a second pilot. the episode was made on february 10, 1969 in los angeles and it was called "those were days". the second pilot episode was almost the same as the first pilot episode but in this pilot gloria was played by candice azzara and chip oliver played richard. richard was the name of michael stivic's character and was named "dickie" in the first pilot episode. d'urville martin played lionel jefferson again. another difference from the pilot episodes and the rest of the show is that edith can be rude to archie at times and calls archie,"mr. religion." for the start of this pilot episode, edith and archie are singing "those were the days" the same way it would be for the rest of the show. after edith and archie start to sing, shots of the neighborhood that they live in are shown but not manhattan. the ending credits are archie and edith singing the same song but they are not shown. instead the same shots from the opening song is shown but backwards. this was used for the rest of the show.
