Centered around the career and home life of nightclub singer Danny Williams (Thomas), the long-running series broke new ground in the world of domestic comedy by portraying an all-American family in its less-than-perfect moments. It was, in fact, Danny's kindhearted struggles to deal with his increasingly unruly offspring--daughter Terry (Sherry Jackson) and younger son Rusty (Rusty Hamer)--that lent the show its timeless appeal and earned Thomas a permanent spot in the pantheon of beloved TV fathers. This collection includes every episode of MAKE ROOM FOR DADDY's fifth season, which began with Danny's remarriage to Kathy (Marjorie Lord) after the death of his first wife Margaret (Jean Hagen, who left the series after four seasons) and introduced Kathy's daughter from a previous marriage, Linda (Angela Cartwright).

    [Sitcom] plotlines seem clichéd because they were put to use on television’s first wave of family sitcoms, of which Make Room for Daddy is a shining exemplar.
