#7 Don't be a sissy, I remember the show. Very politically incorrect now. They had a black maid and a few fringe characters that would put the ACLU in a cardiac care unit.

It was fun though, as near as I can remember.

Funny, how come I can remember tv shows from 50 some odd years ago and I can't remember to buy eggs on the way home from work?
