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.
