How this season is filed
Family Affair is late-sixties CBS gentility: Brian Keith's bachelor Uncle Bill, Sebastian Cabot's Mr. French, and three orphans in a Manhattan penthouse. The comedy is manners, not slapstick — a polished guardian fantasy that syndication kept soft-focus for years. Cabot's butler craft and the era's idea of urban family as interior design are the draw.
