The next-door neighbors of the Bundys throughout their time onscreen, this unit revolved around Marcy, who was first married to Steve Rhoades and later to Jefferson D'Arcy. Mention was occasionally made of Marcy and Steve's respective mothers, and Marcy's cousin Mandy once came to stay - though she was not what anyone expected. Marcy's niece Amber appears in a handful of episodes in Season Nine, then vanishes without a trace or reference.
