Interesting...looks like Michael Learned opted for the plastic look..oh no, Olivia,
trying to look younger than the kids.
Is the Dad still alive? Only saw Mom and the children.

Yes the dad, actor Ralph Waite is still alive. Actually he has a recurring role on NCIS playing Mark Harmon's dad.

Funny that Ralph Waite wasn't with the rest. Maybe a scheduling problem.
Many young stars were in various episodes.

She really does look pretty bad.
Everyone else looks great, though, including Richard Thomas.
Too bad Ralph Waite wasn't there.
Always loved that show.

Amazing how so many of them look the same. The actor who played Ben really aged, though.

I barely remember the show but I enjoyed used to enjoy watching it. Richard Thomas is still easily recognizable but not the other kids, probably because they were too young at the time.
