One particular of many comedies produced in the 1970s by the talented Norman Lear (other hits such as All In The Family, Maude, Great Instances, and The Jeffersons come to thoughts), Sanford And Son received 7 Emmy nominations and 6 Golden Globe nominations for its broadly acclaimed humor. Based on the life of Los Angeles junkyard owner Fred Sanford (Redd Foxx) and that of his son Lamont (Demond Wilson), the series was one of the initial with an totally African-American cast. By way of each episode, Fred manages to insult and offend just about every single particular person, group, race, ideology, etc. The show was such a hit, it stayed in the Nielsen Best Ten for its whole run, excluding its final season…
The Sanford & Son (Season 6) DVD attributes a number of hilarious episodes including the season premiere “The Hawaiian Connection: Element 1″ in which three jewel thieves conspire to smuggle some stolen jewels from Hawaii to Los Angeles. When Fred hops a flight to Hawaii to attend a Junkmen of America conference, the thieves plant the jewels on Fred in the hopes of making use of him as a dupe to carry out their nefarious strategy Other notable episodes from Season 6 contain “The Winning Ticket” in which Fred becomes the victim of a con game by a pair of crooks who convince him to run a $500 raffle promotion for Sanford & Son, and “A Matter of Silence” in which Fred practically goes deaf due to the wax buildup in his ears
