This sitcom at 14 seasons had been the longest-running at the time. This parodies the show during the last season. It involves the real-life stories of actual husband and wife Ozzie and Harriet Nelson, though it wasn't a reality show.
Ozzie's son Ricky was a teen idol in real life, and was married to Kristin Harmon.
David, the other real-life son, also grew up on the show and became a lawyer.
E. G. Marshall was a lawyer on a short-lived TV drama called The Defenders.
Wally (Skip Young) was not a real person, He was Ricky's college mate.

The show was rebooted a few years later, with the premise being that the children had moved out of the house and Ozzie was now renting to two college girls (Susan Sennett, Brenda Sykes) who basically carried the show.
A-Z GUIDE TO MOVIES AND TV SHOWS PARODIED BY MAD, CRACKED, CRAZY, ETC. UP TO 1996. THEY HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH THIS. SPOILERS AND OTHER NON-SEQUITURS, TOO. SOMETIMES THESE THINGS HAVE WORDS OR SITUATIONS WE DON'T USE ANYMORE. YOU KNOW, 'CAUSE THEY'RE OLD.
