The Jeffersons was an awesome show that is SERIOUSLY underrated. Not many people have heard about it, but I hope this will change soon.
This show challenged many taboos of the time (1970s) and was also extremely funny, notably from Louise and George dissing each other constantly.
This season is where it all begins. It introduces the background, plot and characters. I don't want to give too much away, but trust me, you're in for a good time!

I was ten years old when The Jeffersons premeired on television and I watched this show with my family, it is a spin-off from All in the Family which is another good sitcom I watched. In All in The Family The Jeffersons were next door neighbors to The Bunkers and in this spinoff George Jefferson has expanded his chain of laundomat/dry cleaning stores and is pretty well off financially and he his wife Louise and son Lionel move into the city into a very nice 3 bedroom apartment and also living in the same building are Helen and Tom Willis (Helen is black and Tom is white) and their daughter Jenny who is Lionel's girlfriend. Other good characters include Mama Jefferson, George's mother who loves to criticise Louise and there is also wisecracking maid Florence and eccentric British neighbor Mr. Bentley. This classic sitcom is just as good as All in the Family and the top-notch cast includes Sherman Hemsley as George Jefferson, Isobel Sanford as Louise (Weezy) Jefferson, Mike Evans as Lionel Jefferson, Roxie Roker as Helen Willis, Marla Gibbs as Florence and Zara Cully as Mama Jefferson. I love The Jeffersons and I highly recommend this show!

Dated humour still funny
The dialogue in this pioneering TV show seems very dated thirty-five years later. Political correctness was in its budding infancy and racial tensions were eased by communicating... Read more

The Black and White Show that's "not really black and white"
Before George Jefferson,I don't think anybody found prejudice humorous. Referring to caucasians as "honkies" and half-black and half-white people as "zebras"... Read more
