===ABC Friday-night legacy: 1950s to 1970s===
Family-friendly comedies, which featured families with children as major characters, were a staple of ABC's programming dating back to the network's earlier sitcoms from the 1950s onward, such as ''[[The Adventures of Ozzie and Harriet]]'' (which premiered in 1952), ''[[Leave It to Beaver]]'' (which moved to ABC in 1958, after spending its first season on [[CBS]]), ''[[The Donna Reed Show]]'' (which premiered in 1958), ''[[The Flintstones]]'' (which premiered in 1960, but was largely an adult-oriented animated comedy until the birth of [[Pebbles Flintstone|Pebbles]] in 1963), ''[[The Brady Bunch]]'' (which premiered in 1969), and ''[[The Partridge Family]]'' (which premiered in 1970; that series and ''The Brady Bunch'' became part of the Friday night lineup at that time).
