- Willie borrows $3,000 from Kate, intending to save Jeff from the hands of an angry drug dealer; a teenager (Michael J. Fox) pursues Kate. (Please do not bother complaining about the quality of this video. For many years, this old video copy was the only version available online. Now it is available to stream through Tubi.)
Michael J. Fox makes the world better with his talents. God bless him.
I agree. I loved watching him as "Alex."
Agreed. I always liked him.
Kate: I may look "young" but I wasn't born yesterday😂😂😂
I guess Willie was too scared to ask his father for the money.
What would "Willie" do if his parents didn't have that upstairs apartment for him to "leech" off of..and I got news for you "Willie" it IS your father's business when there's cocaine on his property..how dare you speak to your father/landlord like that!
This is funny, Michael J Fox and Meredith Baxter Birney worked together just 2 years later on Family Ties.
So cool.
She played his mom even though she was only 14 years older than him.
Thought it funny that Meredith would give him a ride to the Family Ties studio had she not known him previously.
Yup they sure did!
He sure was creepy in here and chasing after the tv mom of who became his tv mom a couple years later 😆
I remember these old commercials in the late 70's to 80"s like Time Life Books, NitWit and Doodle Loom kits....etc. It definitely takes me back in time.
I'm not sure if you are aware how grateful we are of you posting these gems. I was 6 when this debuted and 10 when it aired it's final episode. I never watched it back then but now watching it at 50 years old I'm glad I did. FAMILY and LITTLE HOUSE ON THE PRAIRIE are the two best television shows from the 1970s in my opinion.
I'm pushing 50yrs old myself come Jan n I understand what you mean
Bring back these normal days!!
Me too. I’m a couple years behind u but for some reason I never watched this show when it was on I don’t even remember what days or time it was on. Its hard to remember what shows i watched first run and what i saw in reruns/syndication. Between this and Little House .....Little House was my show and still is I can rewatch it a million times which I probably have. Ive been bingeing on this for a couple of weeks and almost done. I may rewatch some episodes or if it ever does air on tv or app again i might watch it but like the Waltons it took me 40 years to watch it but once was enough for Waltons This was a good show IDK why i avoided it but thankful its here now to watch. Thank you Xanthas
Try out Touched by an Angel. A great show in the 90’s.
Ya real grateful for an episode that stops with 2 minutes left
Michael ❤J❤Fox❤ - what an amazing actor! Bless his heart. ♥️ ❤
Well, if he was going for sociopathic creep who does not understand boundaries, he succeeded.
@@gmh471that's kinda the role... it's not like the actor was 'going' for it
Sometimes Willie’s self righteousness and stupidity is too much to bear
Yes! Gary Frank was perfect in that role.
If Doug had any sense of how to handle his son's arrogance, he would have responded "none of my business? This is my freaking house you goddamn leech."
@@gmh471 wrong…why do old people in America scream at each other and vent all their money frustrations on their spouses and kids with anger like mortal enemies? And you think that is good sense? Pulling rank about who pays the bills? I wish old people could see how cruel and abusive these attitudes were/are. Family was interesting because the parents respected their children as people instead of screaming at them…and that bothers you? Why?
This brings back so many memories for me ! Thanks for putting these out here.. 😁
"You ready for the world of rock and roll?" ... goes into room - Disco music playing ,,,
@@ohdiggy8038 That was a sub-genre known as Disco-Jazz. True scoop.
This is so unbelievable, how in the world could a 14 yr old have a crush on someone who could be his grandmother is weird even for 1980, it would have been more believable if it would have been Nancy, although that also would have been creepy since she later played his mother on FT.
Lol. Watch the episode where Nancy is being stalked by someone in her college class.
@@Mister_Listener What’s the name of that episode?
@@trainer1158 i cant remember episode titles, but it was season 2. Look up all the episodes with Anne Schedeen as Nancy’s friend…i remember she was in it. It had lots of squeaky slidey violin music and menacing pre-1980’s kidnapper vibes and shakey camera shots. Like that creepy Albert/Sylvia episode of Little House. Haha.
@@Mister_Listener It's " Such a fine line" 1980.
45:26. Michael J Fox's character: Then you forgive me?
Sada Thompson: (softly and kindly)for everything except going through my garbage.🤣
Genius line...her deadpan delivery made it hilarious.
TOO funny. I wonder if it was hard to get thru that with a straight face
I like how Buddy thinks the whole thing is funny
I rewind and watch over and over Sada’s lines quite a bit. She was terrific and the character was priceless.
Any Ryan’s Hopes fans watching this?That’s ilene Kristin who played Delia on that show in this episode as a member of the band.
That was driving me crazy! I could not figure out how I knew her so well. I watched Ryan's hope way back then!
Miss this show alot. Thanks for leaving those old old commercials in.
"Old" commercials?!! Then who did I just order a Knit-wit from? :)
@@cidb.212 lol
I want a craft matic
The commercials were from 1991, so at that point this was an 11 year old rerun.
@@patriciajones4761 want an adjustable bed but don't think you can afford one?
I don’t know why. But this show was the most depressing family show for me in my teens. Everyone seemed so dull, unhappy and self absorbed. ‘Conditional love’ seemed to perpetuate it. Now that I’m in my 60s, after watching a few episodes I could be proven wrong. We shall see. Thanks for uploading them.
😣 I loathe that this episode ended so abruptly... Why doesn't it play all the way to the end?
@@chrystal.clairtv7532 Very disappointing
I loved this show as a kid because my own mother was so awful!! Kate seemed so loving and wonderful. One of these days i am going to drive around South Pasadena to look for the house and listen for that dog who is always barking at night!!
The "house" is nothing but a facade that sat in the studio lot (and has more than likely been destroyed), and the dog died a long time ago .
@@occdoc8423 i think that you could be mistaken. That looked like it was an actual house in South Pasadena that they used.
@@Mister_Listener My bad. According to Wikipedia: "Exterior shots of the Lawrence family home were filmed at 1230 Mulildn Avenue in South Pasadena, California.".
This is a surprise to me, as the exterior shots of homes featured in many U S. TV series are taken from the actual studio lot.
@@occdoc8423 oh cool thanks for verifying it! yeah it is very common in LA. And a mixed blessing if you are the homeowner…they pay you well to shoot but they basically take over and it disrupts a peaceful home for sure. They used tons of exterior shots of the house and driveway and sidewalks on Family. Not to mention tourists like me who are going to drive by years later to gawk, or perhaps call out, “Buddy, Annie, can you come out to play.”
OMG with the original commercials! Now that’s a blast from the past! I was 17 in 1980. I loved watching Family with my family. 😊
Those aren't the original commercials. They're from the '90s.
The Michael J Fox character was strange in this episode. The whole premise of him crushing on her was odd. Today, the cops would've been involved for him stalking the teacher.
This is definitely a jump the shark episode. The idea that a teenage boy would crush on a frump like Kate is absurd.
@@gmh471 theres another episode of a nerdy friend of buddy’s who becomes a nuisance because of a friendship he pursues with Kate. Everybody loved her!!
@@Mister_Listener That one also had a ridiculous, socially inept boy that came from no place in reality. Also, that kid, IIRC, simply craved family and that's why he gravitated toward Kate. The writers for this show came up with a lot of weird stuff and often repeated themselves. Seems like the only friends Nancy had were women with low self-esteem and had love affairs with married men.
@@gmh471 haha. That episode proved to viewers how much everyone loved Kate. Ok. How about the one where Willie was having casual sex in the house with Shelley Long and how Kate was all flustered?! Or when she had jury duty(2part season finale) or when Tovah Feldshuh thought Kate was her mother? Or when Kate was having precognitive dreams…
@@Mister_Listenerweird weird and weird. Thanks for pointing that out.
A different vibe in the 1980s. Jeff never could get his life together. I like the Micheal J Fox character.
Willie is not doing too great.
You mean the 70’s! Family ran from 1976-1980.
I love this ....finding these o l d shows and reminds me of what I now call the good ole days lol
My brother and I watched this back in the day! We were a little too into it, in fact. We actually made up lyrics for the theme song. 🎶 Who does that? Couple of dorky kids, us.
So are you going to let us see the lyrics, or what. 🍿🍿
@@BJMallory Are you really that curious? 😳
All righty then...
🎼 No matter what they go through, they are a family,
🎼 All through good and bad times, they’ve got
🎼 Family unity....
That’s all I can remember. Now you have to sing it whenever you watch an episode.
@@spiritmatter1553 I will 😄
@@BJMallory That’s so awesome. Teach it to your friends. Keep it going! Thanks. 🎵
...Wow, I thought my brother and I were into it but you and yours had us beat. 🤭🤗
I would like to know how many takes the scene between Sada and MJF had. I'm sure there were many bloopers (laughter). I've been reminding and laughing throughout this entire library scene. I just love Miss Sada Thompson 💜🙏🏾
Darn episode stops I won't know if he paid the money back lol
How does it end??????? Noooooooo!!!!!
Great show- I’m loving watching these again. So many good messages- show was definitely ahead of it’s time.
Willy is a brat in this and many other episodes. He always claims to be an adult but is clearly a dependent living at home, bumming money from his parents, sporadically working and making poor choices often.
So good! She let him down without doing so!!! Thank You for this program. It's a wonderful way to maintain sanity in a world that's not so at the present time🤷!😍💝💯♾️
Well it looked that way until he showed up at the end telling her he'd sold his bike. The writers wanted that to be a joke. But it's not funny, its very creepy and Kate had played into this kid's fantasy and now it would be an even bigger problem because it looks like she was trying to string him along.
The way Kate handled Michael J. Fox would not go over well these days!
I was thinking the same thing. Shows how much times have changed!
The decline of a culture combined with increasing authoritarianism.
...and increasimg paranoia in Americans' side.
Love the commercials. Wonder if i can still purchase “the Electronic Fish Caller”?
They actually have some on eBay. Lol
I want the time life thing
I was reminded of Pet Rocks.
Yeah that’s what two grown men friends do when they get together. They bust out to ukuleles and start singing a barrel of money! 😂😂😂 But for real I like this television show.
Some did. In real life. Yes
I know a lot of people who do.
Dont forget Kate was a music teacher! That was such a warm and sweet storyline when she was in the classroom. Kate also led them in singing Praise God from whom all blessings flow before their meal in the thanksgiving episode. Lol.
This show had so many great guest stars! Love it. ❤
I would have love to be seducesed by a a young mjf
I'm coming to the "Family" party rather late. Very late. Almost 45 years late, in fact. I remember when this show was on, but I was never interested in it when it was on ABC. I never saw my first "Family" until literally a few days ago. As the old cliche goes, I gotta say I never knew what I was missing. I now see what all of you who DID watch it on ABC saw in it.
I'm new as well and just living this show!
I wasn't allowed to see it because it was on too late. I assume it was because of the adult themes.
same, was about 10 when this was on and had no interest, now intrigued..
I’m new too. Just discovered this show yesterday. I wasn’t even born when it came out
I was 7 years old when this episode was on ...lol.. so now I am watching the show...
The parents of this family were so much like my Parents, especially the mother. Sada Thompson was so at ease, she played this roll with perfection.
whatever
*role*
@@nonrepublicrat Whatsa matter? Didn't get any last night?
at ease? more like a bitter old hag. always jumping to conclusions then apologizing in the last 5 minutes and expecting everyone to just let it go, and the amount of alcohol these two parents drank was unbelievable. she always Needed a drink, as if picking flowers from the yard and shopping stressed her out. and she never related to buddy at all. this tv couple sucked booze at every chance they could just to endure each other. she also puts down her husband in every episode and tries to deball him. buddy should of blown them away. now there's an episode.
@@XxowendanxX willie is the only normal one in that train wreck
It’s
Michael j Fox wow
Father has every right. It's HIS property. I'd be livid.
Willie gets away with EVERYTHING!
Poor babies. Didn't get your bitchy authoritarian complex satisfied.
Typical ungrateful Willie.
I think thats what made the show so smart and realistic.
B E S T Sitcom E V E R produced !
Wish 📺 was like this now !
I hate most reality shows !
Hardly anythin worth while on 📺 nowadays !
Thank God it's on Utube !
Thx for the load so very much appreciated ! ! !
@foldelops: I don't think you know what "sitcom" means.
I like that the commercials are included.
I would have preferred the original commercials from 1980 instead of the '90s infomercials.
Can i borrow $3,000 mom? I will pay you back in the year never, never . 😂🤣😂
$3000 was a lot of money in 1980
I agree, $3,000 back then would be over $9,000 in today's money.
I wish there was a boxed set of this show.
There is Amazon and several other places offer at least the first two seasons
Also decades channel has been running entire series.
It's on Tubi.
@@goodmorningsundaymorning4533Nope!
The commercials are fantastic!!
"I'll get over it with time. " "when you do can I still stamp your books!?"!!!!!!! Lmao
I thought I was the only one laughing at this scene. Kate is trying not laugh too. “For everything…except going through my garbage” 🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂
I thought Kate had handled the boy's advances very skillfully, making him change his mind about pursing her by pointing out all the things he would have to give up. But when he showed up at the end saying he had sold his bike and was ready to move forward she would have had an even bigger problem on her hands. At that point she and Doug would have to have had a serious conversation with him about his behaviour and likely would have had to involve his parents. And then how would it look when the kid explained that Kate had initially agreed to leave Doug for him? As much as I love this series and these characters at this point it really needed needed new writers.
Yeah that was a really dumb thing to say unless maybe Kate was scared of him and what he might do.
The conversation should have been, "I'm very flattered that you feel that way but you have to understand that I'm married. I have a family. And as much as I think you are a terrific young man anything other than a teacher student relationship is impossible." And then she should have documented the conversation somewhere in case he persisted at which point she'd have to involve the school principal. But I get where the show was coming from, it was the 70's and people didn't think then about romantic relationships the way that they do now.
I loved all the actors/actresses young and just starting,some older but hadn't gotten their breakout rolls yet.So far I've saw Helen Hunt,Tom Berenger,Michael j.Fox,Jeff Gootenberg,Ted Danson,Willie Ames,Leif Garrett,Linda Lavin,Lisa Welcher etc.Just too many to name♥️
knit wit and
doodle looms LOLOL i want them
Lmao, I've been laughing my butt off at these commercials!
Lololol
OK, when the HECK did Willie and Jeff become besties like that? LOL
They always have been. It’s in the past seasons, he was friends before he married Nancy.
@@apollozero thanks! I need to watch my DVDS of the first two seasons again..
Yeah friends with Jeff while married to Nancy and after the divorce, but never in love with him like he is in this episode.
Willy is contrary he likes anything and anyone the others don't.
They had to frame them as besties to make it seem plausible that Willie would borrow all of that money from his mom for Jeff.
These parents in Family are good they love and care for their children. I wish I had happy childhood and I come from broken family.
Kate gives off a strong Mom vibe. I can see how a confused teenager would fall for her - if his own mom wasn't around much, for example.
Or if that confused teenager had very poor eyesight
If only all mothers had been like her but they simply weren’t
@@XxowendanxX The very rare LOL.
I love these old commercials. MJF looks like Jodie Foster.
With no laugh track or studio audience this has a nice wide open space to just inhabit the scene. Seems like a great show to have on when you're feeling god awful with a fever and are slipping in and out of restless sleep. I may be able to appreciate the show on some intellectual level but my smartphone singed synapsis recoil from the mundanity. Still, a cool experience to have. 50 too btw, just never heard of this show. Used to crush on Kristy McNichol big time.
Lol. Hope your fever comes down. Keep watching, its a great show and you will not believe the odd places these storylines and episodes will take you.
😅
Cough drops? So glad mike stepped up his game, don’t think Tracy Pollan would accept cough drops as a gift !😂😂😂😂😂😂
What a terrific show this was. They don't make quality tv with great writing and acting like this anymore.(And Kristy is so cut) I miss the 1970s.
Man, i LOVED the 70's SO MUCH! i was around 9 or 10 back then (im 55 now), and i totally LOVED EVERYTHING about the 70's! Television was THE BEST. i had my TV shows, (like "FAMILY"), that i FAITHFULLY watched EVERY SINGLE night of the week 😁, AND i was SO BLESSED to have a TV in my Room too! 🤠🩷🩷🩷
Kristy was a boy, so was Laura Ingalls.
Hey! It’s Delia Reed Ryan (did she actually marry Roger Coleridge?) from Ryan’s Hope. 🤗
I am LOVING these episodes of FAMILY. It was one of my favorite shows as a kid. My mom actually would let me stay up to watch it. 🤗
My mom let my sister and I also stay up and watch Family
She also played Roxie on One Life To Live.
Yeah right!! Miss Delia Reed, Ryan, Ryan Colerage herself, in thee flesh!!✌😄✌💛
I remember sitting on the couch next to my mom staying up watching this show. It wasn't her favorite or anything but she let me and my sister watch it.
I remember one summer when Delia on Ryan's Hope was out on a ledge threatening to jump for what seemed like weeks.
Alex P. Keaton. Oh, Geez!! He is still funny as hell, dude!! Lol!! A comedian from jumpstreet!!✌😂😂😂✌!!!
gosh, these old commercials as well 🥰
Just an amazing time xo
The horrors of adult children still living at home. Doug is an attorney who could be disbarred for illegal activity, and owns the guest house. Willy is hiding illegal drugs in the guest house and when his father finds out, Willy tells his dad "It's none of your business." Actually, yes, it is his business. Privileged kids who won't grow up and fail to launch.
Willie sure seem to think he can do whatever he wants, live home while stop out of school and not work, his parents should put their foot down.
The line is "I was born at night...not last night" - LOL! Willie sure did have a lot of mouth for someone who lives off his parents and has to beg them for money to help a so-called friend.
It would be one thing if he was saving up to buy a house, but he was not. Just a leach.
Is this before Willie sold Haddie's farm? If it's after Willie has money in the bank about 65k for the sale of Haddie's farm.
I can't believe he mouthed off to Doug that way, for any reason, much less to protect a drug addict who did his sister dirty, cheated on her when they had a small child and another baby on the way. It's Doug's property he should have called the cops with hard drugs in his home with underage girls around.
Willie dropped out of high school without a real job, lived at home and fell in love with every girl he met. To me, the last straw was his loyalty to someone who wronged his sister.
@@BlinkFM they never sold Hattie’s farm! They decided to keep it ! Willie had $2000.00 saved himself .. he wasn’t even 20 years old! He was naive! He really believed Jeff needed ir for equipment . Though the parents saw right through Jeff … hence when Kate was writing out the Check …” who should I make it out to ? Jeff maitland?”
Oh, this wouldn’t fly in today’s society the parents would be making a scandal suing the school suing the teacher.
I think Kate would have preferred the attention from Don Johnson instead of Michael J. Fox.
swk56 Who wouldn't?!!!
That’s only because she had yet to watch Family Ties.
Stephanie Baker or back to the future, where she could’ve shaved some years off in the time traveling whip they called the Delorean!😂😂😂😂😂
Should of ended up with michael meeting justine bateman then he gets a crush on her.
The guest house sits on Willie’s parent’s property so yes, “it IS HIS DAD’S business” what’s going on in HIS guest house & who’s staying in it. Can’t believe how spoiled & entitled Willie’s character is. His parents allowed him to have a very easy lifestyle....those were the days!😏
IRL, Willie seems like the type that would have been hooked on drugs.
Yes, Willie seems to be given a lot of freedoms in this family. But he is the family “chauffeur” so they can’t make him too upset that he’ll move out.
Right? I know he wasn’t really aware of what Jeff was really into but geesh once the coke was found u still tell your dad it’s none of his business. 🤦🏻♀️ Plus the dealer woke up his parents first OF COURSE ITS THIER BUSINESS
Doug was very hard on WIllie like Kate was hard on Nancy. Nancy has the worst entitlement than any of them which Merideth has stated she wanted to play Nancy like that.
Yes, I like these old commercials also
...They're quaint now but they were very repetitive and annoying at the time.
👍🏽💯😂
@@user-mj8nf2vp7q Better than now with the constant drug ads with people wandering around meadows and holding kids and smiling.
@@echt114 The more things change...
🙄👍🏽💯
I love the old comercial. I still have them.Time life books
I never could understand why "Willie" was still this overly friendly with "Nancy's" ex husband.. it's very strange..and then to be involved with cocaine..that would have done it for me..Bye!
I enjoy watching Micheal J. Fox,, he plays younger roles even tho he older. I wonder how old he really was in this role. And yes, I like the commercials, I enjoy seeing the one's from the 80's , better than today's. One question, why does it say it has closed caption and when I press it I can't get it to come on? I'm hard of hearing and even tho I can hear the dialoge, it helps when the actors talk low.
‘In every friendship, there are limits’….golden…what writing!!
I think Willie and Jeff made a better couple than Nancy and Jeff.
Except for the lying and cheating. Oh wait...
Couple of WHAT??
@@XxowendanxX You seem to be so adroit, why don't you fill that in?
@@johnfd0210 it was a bromance, no shady stuff going on like some people implied
Watching these episodes is like filling something I didn't even know was not there. I too was very young about 5 or 6 when this debuted and I guess it wasn't a show that was put on in my household at the time. Thank you so much for all the episodes you have been uploading. It means alot❤🙏
I remember watching and liking the show, but the show broached some pretty big topics, especially in the 1970s. I felt I was getting away with something when watching it alone. My Mom didn’t seem to know that it was pretty mature. I think the writers and producers were very liberal and the 70s were the start of trying to educate the public of what they thought were important topics.
Yes we older women know a lot! That is, if we don't forget anything. 🤣
Jeff's 'friends' could get rid of Kate's crush in no time. 😂😂
42:46 This is really weird; she is no Mrs. Robinson, if you know what I mean, maybe more like Mrs. Robinson's mother. Anyway, I love the way they always play the "sad flute" in the background during awkward scenes on shows of this era.
PS: Michael J. Fox was still working off a little baby fat at this point. I barely recognized him, except by his voice.
"Mrs. Robinsons' mother"! Lol. Really, she is no Anne Bancroft!
Did Willie or Nancy ever move out on their own? Haha....cool old commercials too.....
Nancy left the guest house leaving it free for Willie to move in.
If my parents would have had a great guesthouse in a nice middle class neighborhood, i would have lived there forever!
@@reneebraxton1032 Me too.
Proof that the living at home trend isn’t a Millennial trend, but started with Boomers. Maybe even with the Greatest Generation if you consider the Waltons.
I want those Timelife Do It Yourself books...and would they still want to buy my classic Cartier watch? Absolute commercial gold!! Thanks.
3000$ no questions asked...definitely tv make believe.
I could never stand the character of Jeff.
Funny the dyi books now everyone uses TH-cam
Michael J Fox character in love with a woman who could be his Grandmother ? That's not cringey
The Mother on this show was way too old for kids so young. Bad casting.
🤣🤣🤣 Good one!
lol the commercial for the "fish caller" thing... there is NO way there is a circuit in that thing, what a bunch of BS. A battery that lasts up to 900 hours? In 1980? hahahaha thats a funny one.
Then there's Hanoi Jane commercial
...The commercials were from syndicated airings in the late 80's, early 90's.
Like Willie didn't know what the $5,000 was going to be used for.
😄 Amps & Equipment 😄!
I never liked Jeff
The moment I saw Meredith Baxter Birney in the opening credits, I realized the connection: both she and Michael J. Fox would go on to play mother and son on another show with the word, 'family', "Family Ties". I'm surprised I didn't make that connection before I started playing the episode, being I was such a fan of "Family Ties" back in the 80s.
Elyse to Alex saying one of the funniest lines on one of the funniest episodes, Birthday Boy:
"You're invading Canada in the morning!"
Be well, stay safe, and God bless you all.
This was really sweet. The scene where Kate tells Richard that she is ready to leave her husband was one of the sweetest things that I have ever seen.
Theres another episode where Buddies friend enjoys Kate’s company more and he becomes a real nuisance…it is also a very sweet story. Sada Thompson was a lowkey sex goddess in this role, she played an unusual mother figure and she was just brilliant.
Willie it is your father's business doesn't he own the house and the Guesthouse aren't you living there for free. Willie was so out of character here, in the scene where his father finds the drugs.... so mean, Doug was doing nothing wrong.
I couldn't stand that Jeff guy. I hated him being on the show.
Do you know who plays him? His father was the very famous Arthur Rubenstein, an amazing pianst. Jeff, played by John Rubenstein, wrote the music for the show. John has a son who is an actor too. I agree with you though, Jeff played a geekie guy.
Does anyone know how this ends? The episode just stops.
Ironic: Cocaine does produce "Fine Lines".
Thank you so much for posting! I’m loving all the Family videos! Can someone please tell me how this episode ends? The video stalls near the end, right where Jeff is holding the baby by the window. Also, not to sound greedy, but does anyone have the episode, From Russia With Love? It’s the only one I haven’t seen! Thank you so much!
He's so young
Xanthas-you're the best !
Lol knit wit fun 😅 the commercials crack me up
Love the old commercials!!
And the fact that back then they'd show 1 or 2 commercials instead of 42 of em like they do today.
Thanks so much for posting all these great videos. I enjoyed Family when it was on, one of those truly GOOD shows in a sea of mediocrity. I could never understand , tho, why Meridith Baxter got a "special" mention in the credits. And I'm still puzzled by John Rubinstein's special SPECIAL credit. While I'm at it, I have to mention that, while I loved Family, I agree with Doug Lawrence...I never could stand Jeff.
I always feel bad watching season after season of this show that poor Willie has no friends to hang out with!
His relationship with Buddy was really wonderful though. And he had plenty of sex with Shelley Long and Elizabeth Ashley and Season Hubley, etc…lol.
Oh no! The video suddenly freezes at the end! Can anyone please tell me how the episode ends?! Does Willie ever get his money back? Thanks to anyone who can help!
I thought Jeff and his family were wealthy?
No offense to Sada Thompson, but it's very unlikely a teenage boy would have a crush on her. This is a very silly episode.
That's why it's so hilarious!
In the late 70’s, every teenage boy had a crush on Kristy McNichol, for all the good it would have done them!
@@mikeoneil5770 Kristy dated a few guys. She was not a lez from the word go. She got into that scene later in life
Hahaha
Yes I know especially she is old enough to be his mother.
WHY does Sada dress like it's the 50,s? Poor Buddy has to deny her identify. Willie is so lame. But still good old show.
Tried ordering that fish caller thing but that number is disconnected. Strange.
Funny how Michael fox would play Nancy son one day
Froze up at the end. Watched the whole thing and then can't see the last 5 minutes to see how it wraps up?
IKR, I want to know if Jeff repaid Willie.
I wish I had q spare 45 hours but I wouldn't spend them making an afgan ha ha. Knit wit is not for me 😂
(40:40) ...Sorry, No COD'S!
