ABOUT THE SHOW...

An attractive high-school girl is not only a member of a large and unique family but her father is one of the great pioneers of industrial efficiency.

Her father decides to apply his unorthodox methods to the entire large family. While the situations are often uproarious, there's a serious reason. Dad has a heart condition that he's keeping secret.

Anne, the oldest, rebels. Both Dad and she are miserable at the lack of understanding between them. Then in a deft and moving scene, Dad becomes aware of how much Anne has grown up.
