Very funny comedy of an affluent black family living the American dream in achieving success in their dry good business.
Sherman Hemsley and Isabel Sanford provided terrific chemistry as the husband and wife team. Sanford always knew how to crack those one-liners at a vulnerable but lovable Hemsley. Militant son Lionel was always good for a laugh and as the mother-in-law, Zarra Cully, proved that having the typical mother-in-law to deal with wasn't only an Italian or Jewish problem.
Franklin Cover and Roxie Roker successfully showed that with understanding, inter-racial marriages could work.
