Keep It In The Family was an American television game show originally hosted by Bill Nimmo and Keefe Brasselle, and announced by Johnny "Come On Down" Olsen. It premiered as a half-hour pilot on October 12, 1957 on ABC and ran for four months, one season and approximately 16 telecasts until February 15, 1958. The series is one of the shortest running game shows in the history of United States broadcasting.
Keep it in the Family is a British comedy television series about a likable and irrepressably fun-loving and mischievous British cartoonist, Dudley Rush.
Also featured are Dudley's very attractive wife, Muriel, and their two pretty daughters, Jacqui and Susan. Dudley's literary agent, Duncan Thomas, is also featured.
The show was made by Thames Television for the ITV network, and ran from 1980 to 1983.
Dudley Rush is an artist with a difference! Eccentric and childlike, he insists, among other things, on wearing his large-sized lion ventriloquist glove puppet on his hand whenever he draws the comic strip "Barney, The Bionic Bulldog". As Dudley is not at all happy with having to spend what he considers valuable time working, he is always procrastinating, with this often leading to his being late in meeting the 'dead-line' for the comic strip - to the continuing frustration of his long-suffering agent, Duncan Thomas (who often falls victim to Dudley's practical jokes). Duncan frequently visits the Rush family home to collect Dudley's latest drawings, and, as it is quite obvious that he is strongly attracted to Dudley's attractive wife Muriel, this often leads to bouts of excessive jealousy on Dudley's part. As Duncan also delightedly consumes an excessive number of Muriel's delicious cakes whenever he visits the Rush family home, this is an added source of annoyance for Dudley. With Dudley, Muriel, and their attractive daughters, Jackie and Susan, all being blessed with a wonderfully weird and ready wit all their own, life in the Rush family home is always lively and never dull.
