The Adventures of Ozzie and Harriet

The Adventures of Ozzie and Harriet show appeared on ABC for 15 years beginning October 1952 and ending September
1966. There were 435 episodes produced that followed the Nelsons day to day adventures as an average middle-class family. We all watched as their
two young sons David and Ricky grew up before our eyes including getting married and their real life wives appearing on the show. We also watched
Ricky Nelson sing his most current hit. His song Travelin' Man was probably the first music video
ever to appear on TV.
The family lived in Hillsdale at 822 Sycamore Rd. Who knows what Ozzie's means of income was. It appeared that he was
always hanging around home and never going to work or mentioning his job. The series developed around the four Nelsons and a few neighbors and
friends until the boys started dating and got married.
