Sanford and Son had the highest ratings of the entire series during the time when Redd Foxx was not on the show


I guess we had to be around at the time to understand why because it's mind boggling that more people tuned in to see Grady:lol:

I agree 100% with you on this one, TVFactFan. That does boggle the mind. Maybe they were tuning in hoping Fred would pop back in.:lol:

That is the season I always avoided in syndication. But seeing Grady in that role at the TIME it aired in 1974 was probably must see TV


But for us it's definitely not.

^^^ That's what I always thought, too. I think the viewers were just missing Fred and waiting for him to re-appear.

Another mystery is why Fred had that BIG and TALL female as a date in his last episode before Grady took over


She was HUGE:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Yes, I liked Fred better with Donna. Lamont hated her though.
