From multiple award winning filmmakers Alan and Susan Raymond came this unusual documentary serial which aired over 12 successive weeks in 1973. The series followed the Loud family of Santa Barbara, California. It was somewhat of a precursor to The Family, Paul Watson's documentary of the Wilkins family of Reading, England. Much has been written about An American Family, but I give to you, by request, the opening title sequence.

  • I watched the entire episode on the anniversary on PBS. Today life is too fast back then it was toooooo slow.

  • @Saynotoursoap, I got a question......how old is this particular tape? Cause its weird to see that variant of the WNET logo.  Is this late 70s/early 80s. Cause the reruns of this show in recent times, have had the original 1971-72 WNET logo.

  • PBS is still great.

  • I love this theme so much! Perfectly captures the era, even though I wasn't born yet!
