Created by Sherwood Schwartz, creator of Gilligan's Island (1964-1967), it focused on the petty travails of an all-white blended suburban family filled with teenagers in boy or girl trouble, with a maid playing a central role. The presence of the maid insured that the family was not representative of any average white family. It was a solid enough success that the show lasted five seasons, but it is notable as the last of the 1950s-vintage Leave it to Beaver-style family sitcoms.
