In the television series, Archie Bunker wears what appears to be a wedding ring. Why does he wear it on the middle finger and it seems to me he has one on each hand, left and right. Why?

I have no idea if this is correct.........................but the thought is intriguing:

Here's your answer ... I was an adjunct writer for the series. Archie wore a ring on not one middle finger, but both middle fingers to -- in a subtle way -- emphasize what an asshole he was. This was done in an attempt to link the viewer's mind subconsciously to this notice. Archie didn't just give the world "the finger" ... he gave it two.
