Partridge Family on DVD

Partridge Family DVD

The television family who defined a generation returns for a second season, stealing the hearts of American viewers young and old. Every kid wanted to be a part of the Partridge Family in the early 1970s, and the adventures of these pop sensations remain fresh, fun, and timeless. Shirley Partridge (Shirley Jones) was a widowed mom struggling to make ends meet, so she put together a band with her exceptionally talented children, and the rest was history. Enjoying their success in the second season, the family also struggles with their fame, trying to retain a modicum of normalcy under their own rising star. Idealistic teenager Laurie (Susan Dey), always sensitive to the plight of others, takes under her wing an awkward boy who has a crush on her, which has some surprising consequences. Keith (David Cassidy) has a crush of his own in "Dora, Dora, Dora," which finds him so smitten he doesn't even notice that the object of his affection lacks all musical talent. Shirley has to persuade young Chris and Tracy to come home when they run away, and the family hires a man with a criminal history to be their tour bus driver, in a season every bit as charming as the first.

Partridge Family DVD- The Complete First Seasons If one show epitomizes many aspects of American life in the early '70s, it's THE PARTRIDGE FAMILY. The show's portrayal of the excitement of a rock & roll lifestyle--however toned down--was quintessentially representative of its time. The family of six is headed by mom Shirley (Shirley Jones), a recently-widowed supermom who is short of financial resources. Jones's real-life stepson David Cassidy played teenaged stepson Keith, while the rest of the family was comprised of Laurie (Susan Dey), Danny (Danny Bonaduce), Chris (Jeremy Gelbwaks), and Tracy (Suzanne Crough). In the first episode, the family stumbles into making a hit song, gains a manager through Keith's diligence, and go on tour in an old painted schoolbus. Their first venue is in Las Vegas opening for Johnny Cash, and the family has to combat their stage fright. The season sees the family learning how to deal with their newfound fame, with Keith's heartthrob status getting the best of him and Danny considering a solo career. The group also plays at a feminist rally, has a nasty encounter with a family of skunks, and 10-year-old Danny gets drafted by accident. Other episodes include "This is My Song," "Mom Drops Out," "Soul Club," and "Not With My Sister, You Don't." Price and more info/Order it!
