My Three Sons

My Three Sons is a situation comedy about a Scots/Irish-American family (Douglas/ O'Casey), that ran from September 29, 1960, to August 24, 1972. My Three Sons chronicles the life of an aeronautical engineer and widower Steve Douglas, played by Fred MacMurray, and his three sons. This seemingly simple premise was a huge hit and a cornerstone of the CBS lineup in the 1960s. With 380 episodes produced, it is second only to The Adventures of Ozzie and Harriet as television's longest running (live-action) family sitcom.

rip Mr. Don Grady aka Robbie

RIP Don Grady. That must have been a strange situation for a child actor. For those who don't know, Fred McMurray would shoot his scenes for the entire season over the course of one or two weeks, and take the rest of the year off. The rest of the season would be shot week-by-week. Not only did that force the writers to produce a season's worth of scripts over the summer break, it also means that in some late-season shows you can see the child actors shift in age in the same scene.

This theme song is stuck in my head. Its timeless.

Seriously? Are you getting that desperate to attack conservatives you have to go after My Three Sons. Give it a rest.

Calling someone a "stupid conservative" is redundant. :)

"You must be some kind of liberal who wants to shut down free speech."

Just an aside: the "free speech" provision in the US Constitution, only guarantees that the GOVERNMENT cannot interfere with free speech. It actually doesn't apply to private blogs, or even YouTube.

Just thought you'd like to know. (It'd be nice if rightwingnuts that profess their love of the constitution, actually READ it once in a while.)

The theme music was composed by composer Frank De Vol.

You only need to verify that you're a fucked-up idiot once. I'm sorry you thought this was a conversation.
