I loved The Courtship of Eddie's Father. Hugely. Bill Bixby was an incredibly sympathetic actor. The dude had fantastic charisma. I found him incredibly watchable. I'm sure I'm not the only kid who wished his father were anything like that.

Well, my dad was an abusive alcoholic, so I'd take Bill Bixby too. (I might have taken Al Bundy, for that matter.) It's just that the show was so damn boring. It was tempting to watch a soap opera instead. Mr. Eddie's Father, indeed.
