- Quotes
Irma Boyle: ...Harry, sometimes I honestly think you enjoy being miserable.
Harry Boyle: Irma, my children are driving me crazy at home. My partner is killing me in business. Golf bores me. I'm too young for health clubs, and too old to chase girls. So being miserable is the only pleasure I've got left!

Featured review
We used to watch this when I was very little...maybe four or five, and I have dim memories of the theme song and some of the voices. They are good memories. As I remember it, the show "King of the Hill" kind of puts me in mind of it, with the concise wit, varying personalities and their interactions and the references to modern culture. My dad used to laugh at the neighbor, whose constant "Huh? Huh? Huh?" briefly became something of a catchphrase in the early 70s. I'd buy this in a second if they released it on DVD...why haven't they? They have everything else out there...every obscure show that was ever produced. I even saw the boxed set of "The Powers of Matthew Starr", for God's sake. They put that out, and leave "Father" in the vault? Come on!
