Sanford and Son

Considered NBC's answer to the CBS sitcom 'All in the Family' it's six season run set the stage for many African American sitcoms to come.

One of the funniest sitcoms ever, from Fred 'G' Sanford's fake heart attacks, "I'm coming Elizabeth", to the endearing phrase spoken to  Lamont, "You Big Dummy", and his constant, hilarious battle of insults with Aunt Esther.
