Synopsis
A Jewish writer marries an Irish-Catholic teacher, with ensuing (and predictable) culture clashes between their families. Ratings were good, but some religious groups were uneasy with the interfaith-marriage concept, and CBS yanked the sitcom---which was sandwiched between 'All in the Family' and 'The Mary Tyler Moore Show'---after one season. Stars Meredith Baxter and David Birney stayed together somewhat longer: They were wed a year later and their marriage lasted until 1989.
