Father Knows Best

Father Knows Best is a sitcom which, with the likes of The Donna Reed Show and The Adventures of Ozzie and Harriet, is often considered representative of the idyllic suburban family of fifties television. The series actually began on radio in 1949, moving to TV from 1954 to 1960 (star Robert Young, as the titular father, was the only cast member to transition.)
