Father Knows Best @ Thanksgiving

Happy holidays from the TV Land-era

Unfortunate I have to say this, but please leave the politics out of the comments. This isn't the place.

I have five grandchildren and they fight amongst themselves sometimes as children are wont to do.

But let an outsider attack one of them and there will be hell to pay.

If one of them gets sick the others are there to take care of the sick one.

This series of course was filmed before radical feminism declared the family to be evil.

It was filmed before family became such a fragmented concept.

It was filmed during a time when family was well defined.

Thank the "liberals" for the loss.

wow - we need to have these family values back. Why can't siblings treat each other like this in real life?

Being born in the 1990s, this is a breath of fresh air.

People are so beautiful.

I fail to understand why this show is considered anymore phony than sitcoms today. I mean I'd argue that the dialogue and interactions are more authentic than sitcoms today. Who has snarky ass kids like sitcoms today do? I think people made such a big deal over this sitcom, but I fail to see how showing some teen smoke pot=realistic! Actual drug use is much more horrifying than "I was tempted to drink/smoke pot." I'm more insulted by that pathetic representation than not even covering the topic

Does anyone eat together anymore? When I was little all the way up through my teenage years, our family ate together like that. We eat at the same time usually every day, but only manage to eat maybe three meals a week with each other, I think it's sad. For us and for all these children growing up without the pleasure of eating with a Father , Mother and brothers and sisters.

I wish traditional roles existed today

Beautiful, wonderful...hard to believe it was so long ago. I was a kid growing up in the 1950s and watched this TV series all the time and loved it. Like Ozzie & Harriet, Leave It To Beaver, and the Donna Reed Show, it showed us not a real family, of course, but the model for what a real family could be like if they all loved each other and worked together to make this a better America.
