The title of this series might not sound familiar at all for the younger generations, but it enjoyed great popularity during its 12-season run. For the sake of nostalgia, let's see what happened to its cast since its ending.

The series is an early example of a TV show that transcended the traditional idea of a nuclear family, which is just part of its legacy. As a tribute to its cast, let’s see what became of them since the show aired.

FRED MACMURRAY

The late actor played Steve Douglas, a widowed father of four who does his best to raise and provide for his children with the help of his father-in-law.

MacMurray retired from acting in 1978, when he made his last appearance as Mayor Clarence in the horror movie “The Swarm” alongside Michael Caine.In 1986 he became the first person to receive the “Disney Legend” award for his work in six feature films with the company.

Sadly, the actor is no longer with us since he passed away in 1991 at the age of 83.

TIM CONSIDINE

The 78-year-old actor played Mike Douglas, Steve’s oldest son until Season 5, when the character married and was written out of the series.

After the series, the former child actor grew more and more distant from the entertainment industry, appearing in series and TV movies occasionally. His last appearance was in 2006’s “Ray of Sunshine.”

DON GRADY

Following the end of the series, Grady made a couple of appearances before quitting acting for good to focus on music, an art form that he had explored as a member of “The Mickey Mouse Club.”

Unfortunately, Grady passed away from cancer in 2012, at the age of 68.

STANLEY LIVINGSTON
