Transcript

There's nothing quite like them on television. The Bradford's not your typical family of eight children. I don't wear nightgowns anymore, Daddy. They'll make you laugh one minute. I forgot to kiss you good, right? And cry the next, just like your own family.

Eight is enough right after happy days in La Bernand Shirley. America's been waiting for a family show, about a real family. Maybe you're just old-fashioned. Yeah, maybe. A show that reveals the joys and the sorrows.

You've had to all dig down and find your pennies because this family could be in deep financial trouble. The triumphs and the defeats of real people. Maybe we should lay off and we're just trying to do his job.

The Bradfords are the family. Eight is enough is the show. Right after Happy Days and Laverne and Shirley.
