Wait Till Your Father Gets Home aired from September 1972 until September 1974 in first run syndication.
This rather unsuble animated situation comedy was an attempt to cash in on the enormous success of All in the Family. Harry Boyle ( voice of Tom Bosley) was a conservative businessman-father who was continually exasperated by the excesses of his hippie son Chet ( David Hayward) and sexually liberated daughter Alice ( Kristina Holland). His allies were obedient youngest son, Jamie ( Jackie Haley) and Neanderthal neighbor Ralph ( Jack Burns), who gave his family close-order drill against the day of the Communist invasion. Wife Irma ( Joan Gerber) was neutral.
A good many celebrities appeared on the show, sometimes voicing cartoon representations of themselves. Among them were Don Knotts, Phyllis Diller, Don Adams, Rich Little, Jonathan Winters and Monty Hall.
Wait Till Your Father Gets Home began as an animated segment on Paramount's Love American Style series on ABC-TV in 1972. The segment, was entitled " Love and the Old Fashioned Father" it served as the pilot for the syndicated 1972-1974 series. The pilot was then purchased by the NBC owned stations to help fill up the then new FCC prime time access rule time slots.
Wait Till Your Father Gets Home ran for two syndicated seasons but since it lacked the kiddie fanbase of its stone age predecessor The Flintstones, this Hannah-Barbara cartoon never made the jump to Saturday morning. In recent years the series' reruns have shown up on The Cartoon Network.
