This father's day, let Dad think he WAS right.

Maybe he didn't always know best, but beginning in 1954 insurance salesman Jim Anderson (Robert Young) was our favorite head of household. The program's depiction of a "typical" mid-century, middle-class, Midwestern American family was considered the quintessential classic family sitcom. Margaret Anderson (Jane Wyatt) was the levelheaded domestic diva who stood faithfully behind the strong and benevolent father.
Their three children-sophisticated teen Betty, chronically befuddled 14-year-old brother "Bud" and precocious little sister Kathy - faced the challenges of growing up right. Jim and Margaret treated their children's youthful transgressions with authority, empathy and wisdom, and by the end of each half hour, we'd all learned our lesson.
Join Jim and Margaret and "Princess," "Bud" and "Kitten" in their very first year as everyone's favorite '50s family in Father Knows Best.
