Yes, this series is entertaining with some of their likeable songs and funny characters and story lines. Watching this many years after the series was on in my teens, it is clear the writers wanted to portray certain messages in their stories. Some "classic" humorous episodes: Don't Bring Your Guns to Town Christmas episode and Danny and the Mob. This is an entertaining series if you can get past the liberal leanings of some of the episodes. First season was mostly neutral but even had an episode where the family had to change their principles of remaining neutral to make a decision to take a stand on an issue. After that, typical political or social issues were addressed - ecology, women's lib, etc - in the terms of the 70's, of which the issues have evolved to other terminologies. Business mastermind 10 yr old Danny is a glaring prominent figure in most episodes. Ruben, a father figure, tries unsuccessfully to be convincing that he doesn't like kids, since you see him carrying the younger ones on his back or joking with them at the table. The family eating and hanging out together, solving problems, and working together is a nice thing of the past, something TV shows seem to have forgotten. No filthy language. Some innuendos not meant for younger viewers, even though they are uttered by the kids.
