FAMILY TIES: PILOT {SERIES PREMIERE} (TV)

Summary

The premiere of this comedy series about the Keaton family -- Elyse and Steven, two aging ex-hippies, and their conservative, materialistic children. In this episode, Alex is invited to an ethnically "restricted" country club by a wealthy girl whom he is dating. Steven cannot bear the thought of his son attending a function at an establishment that fosters bigotry, and embarrasses Alex when he goes to the club on impulse and attempts to make him leave. Commercials deleted.

Cataloging of this program was made possible by Broadcast Music Inc. in honor of Jeff Barry and Tom Scott.
