Family is an American television drama series that aired on ABC from March 9, 1976 to June 25, 1980. It was conceived as a six-episode limited series,[1] but initial high ratings led to the production of 86 weekly episodes. Creative control of the show was split among executive producers Leonard Goldberg, Aaron Spelling and Mike Nichols.
Family depicted what was, for its time, a contemporary traditional family with realistic, believable characters.[2] The show starred Sada Thompson and James Broderick as Kate and Doug Lawrence, an upper-middle-class couple living at 1230 Holland Street in Pasadena, California, with their three children: Nancy (portrayed by Elayne Heilveil in the original miniseries, then by Meredith Baxter Birney), Willie (Gary Frank), and Letitia, nicknamed "Buddy" (Kristy McNichol). Their fourth child, Timmy, died five years before the first season, at age 10, in a boating accident.
Storylines were often topical. In the first episode, Nancy walks in on her husband Jeff having sex with one of her friends. Other storylines include Kate's possible breast cancer and Buddy's dilemmas about whether to have sex; she always chooses to wait. In 1976's "Rites of Friendship", Willie's childhood friend is arrested in a gay bar, while 1977's "We Love You, Miss Jessup" deals with Buddy's friendship with a lesbian teacher. Family also contends with alcoholism (Doug's sister; Buddy's friend) and dementia: a 1979 episode directed by Joanne Woodward guest-stars Henry Fonda as Doug's father, James Lawrence, who is beginning to experience cognitive decline. Two years later, Fonda won an Academy Award for playing a similar character in On Golden Pond.
The initial showrunners of Family were Nigel McKeand and Carol Evan McKeand, who previously had been writers for The Waltons. After the fourth season, the McKeands departed[3] and were replaced by Edward Zwick, who went on to produce the acclaimed series thirtysomething, My So-Called Life and Once and Again.
Family attracted widespread critical acclaim during its original run. TV critics called the show a rare quality offering in ABC's schedule, which included Happy Days, Laverne & Shirley and other Spelling-Goldberg productions such as Charlie's Angels and Fantasy Island.[5][6]
Despite its occasional adult themes, the National Parent-Teacher Association consistently praised the series. In February 1979, the PTA said Family contained "good parenting lessons" and "slightly controversial" but "excellent" content,[7] recommending it for viewing by teens and older.
In the fourth season, some critics took issue with the show's direction. In February 1979, Noel Holston of the Orlando Sentinel called Family "ABC's most prestigious program" but claimed "the producers' crisis-of-the-week approach is starting to strain the series' credibility."[8] Some critics complained that Family, like many TV shows of the period, had become too reliant on sex-related plots.[9] In spring 1979, ABC shifted the show to Friday nights at 8 p.m. Eastern, and its previously solid ratings dropped to the bottom of the chart.[10]
Although Family earned solid ratings and a loyal following, ABC was criticized for failing to promote the show; the network never aired summer reruns, which could have expanded its audience.[11] In an interview before Family's final season, star Sada Thompson called the network "capricious" and the lack of repeats "most unusual".[12] In December 1979, former showrunners Nigel McKeand and Carol Evan McKeand said, "We worked on that show for 4 1/2 years and there wasn't a day during that time that we felt the network (ABC) gave a damn."[13]
I'm not sure there can be a universal solution that just works the way you hope. Multiple cue lists and event lists can be active concurrently. Multiple event lists can action the same cue. Whatever time code gets displayed on the PSD will inevitably be the wrong one for somebody.
A possible hack would be to use the event list linking feature and use a macro executed by the cue to set the relationship. The time code would appear for those cues that are associated with the active event list.
If I understand you correctly you have multiple event lists triggering a single cue list. And even multiple events that can trigger a single cue. Currently the PSD is designed to only show a one to one relationship and will not show more than one time code even if multiple timecode triggers exsist in a single event list.
Please could some point me in the right direction. I'm needing/ wanting step by step guide on how to trigger my cues using to timecode from qlab. (I'm wanting to time it with a song, rather than me manually pressing go in time, just wanting the one go at start with song).
first question is whether you want qlab to send out timecode into eos (which I think is a bit complicated over the network), or just to trigger the start of a sequence in eos. I usually do the latter.
4/ in qlab, create a network cue, set the patch to the network patch you created in step 2, and give it a type of "OSC message", in the big box enter "/eos/cue/1/fire" - when you run this cue you should see cue 1 being fired on your console. If you change the number "1" in the message to other numbers, you should see the corresponding cue in eos fire.
So once you have this working you have two options - one is to create a number of network cues as per step 4 above, which you pre-wait (or use a timeline group cue) to fire at the correct point in the show. The other option is to use eos's "show control" screen (displays -> show control) to set up an event list which is fired by your first cue in the sequence. If you want some help with either of these let me know..
Given the degree of difficulty for you here, and the depth of recurring hurt and psychological injury, do you feel you have enough distance from your family of origin? Many people find it challenging to maintain Low Contact for the reasons you outline. I certainly hope you have good support from the family you have created with your spouse. If you find yourself struggling with this pain, which is common and understandable, and would like some additional support, feel free to contact me for a counseling appointment. In the meantime, I wish you all the best.

It has been a pure delight to our whole family and we love quoting all the best lines in it to each other for months afterward. Bart and I have discussed on MANY occasions how incredibly good the acting is and how incredible the character development is.
As the seasons went on and what was actually happening in our lives was increasingly rated R, a lot of things were left out, and by the end of the series it looked like a parallel-reality version of what would have happened to us had the show never existed.
No illegitimate children were found via private detective. Roseanne and Jackie never had a falling out. D.J. never crashed the Jeep he got for his bar mitzvah and Darlene was never in a mental hospital.
But I saw those episodes only much later. Only a few episodes of the show had aired before my own story took me further and further from the world of the Conners. I found myself in various institutions and placement programs separate from my family.
Hi @TaraSayersDillard! Thanks for your comment on the makeover. Love your idea. I can visualize it. If this had been a real life project I would have gone to town on the porch as well. Hopefully the porch will be a separate project for the show and we can discuss furniture and container pants.
Hope you are well!
I would have taken the railings off. Put in flagstones with thyme between, and placed a trinity of adirondack chairs. A new space for them to interview, from the garden.
Loved seeing what you did. With landscape designers there are always dozens of RIGHT solutions.
Garden & Be Well, XO Tara
