Agreed. And on a side note (that I know you'll appreciate), Carroll O'Connor was only 47 when the show premiered.

Since we're talking about John Ritter, here's an interesting bit of trivia: He played a bad guy in the series finale of "Mannix". Recognize the house in the photo?

Here's the building I lived in as a kid in Brooklyn. It has 4 apartments - we lived in the upstairs/rear one w/ 2BR+1BA. Back then, the landlord didn't allow window AC units, so we had a big fan in the window facing the alley on the right. My kids - who grew up in suburban NJ - think it's a slum. 😄

FWIW, the last two weeks of #AT40 have been in 1970 and 1972.

November 1972. In a few days, Richard Nixon would defeat George McGovern in one of the most lopsided presidential elections in history. As we all know, things didn't turn out that great for Nixon, who would resign less than two years later. Anyway, on that note, take it away, Jezz! #AT40

Trivia: The blonde girl in the blue halter top is a young Terri Nunn, who would later 'take our breath away' as the lead singer of "Berlin".

Now all he needs is a couple of those oil rain lamps that the Italian restaurants in Brooklyn used to have back in the '70s.
