Review: Wait Till Your Father Gets Home: The Complete Series [Blu-ray]
Warner Archive delivers yet another classic animated series onto Blu-ray!
The Age of Aquarius dawned. Harry Boyle forgot to set his alarm. Inspired by the era of live-action TV series such as All in The Family comes Hanna-Barbera's generation-gap animated comedy series Wait Till Your Father Gets Home.
Tom Bosley provides the voice of Harry, an affable 40-something Everyman and suburban father of three whose daily routine is anything but when he faces the provocative questions of the make-love-not-war era.
Women's Lib, civil rights, hippies, sexuality, communes and the Cold War are some of the hot button petals in this series' flower-powered laughfest.
They're all part of Harry's world, where a man's home is his hassle. This complete series set of two seasons and 48 episodes is highlighted by guest voice appearances from Monty Hall, Don Knotts, Phyllis Diller and Rich Little.
The show was the first primetime animated sitcom to run for more than a single season since fellow Hanna-Barbera show The Flintstones more than ten years earlier, and would be the only one until The Simpsons seventeen years later. The show was inspired by All in the Family.
Each episode was scanned in at 4k from their original 35MM OCNs creating an immaculate picture with stylistic details that create a razor sharp image.
