Summary

A hit with audiences and critics alike, Sanford and Son is the classic sitcom starring the outrageous comic genius Redd Foxx. A ratings smash, Sanford and Son received a Golden Glob win (Best Performance by an Actor in a Television Series, Musical or Comedy, 1973) for Foxx. South Central L.A. junk dealer Fred Sanford (Foxx) and his partner-in-grime, son Lamont (Demond Wilson), are constantly struggling to make ends meet, but Fred always has just one more get-rich-quick scheme up his sleeve, sometimes involving best friend Grady (Whitman Mayo). When he's not haggling over his empire of junk, he's sparing with his sister-in-law, the cantankerous, Bible-thumping Aunt Esther (LaWanda Page). Nothing can get you out of the dumps like watching the hilarious exploits of Fred Sanford!
