Family Affair (S3) 'The Unsound of Music' pt.33.flv

[@nonprofitgirl]

This has been in my head for DAYS…”every little boyyyy can be president!!” OMG Buffy and Jody are the CUTEST THINGS I HAVE -everr-seen! So sweet!

[@LindaMerchant-bq2hp]

They were cute anissa jones and johnny Whittaker ❤❤ like Chris and Tracy partridge family and bobby and Cindy brady bunch

[@crystalhyde7843]

He sang beautifully!! That is one of the best family shows ever produced.

[@littleogeechee223]

OMG! How freaking adorable was Jody and his song? the kid really did fantastic!

[@howtube61]

He sure did! Johnnie Whittaker's rendition of Every Little Boy Can Be President was one of my favorite Family Affair moments.

[@Solenya1111]

I remember watching this with my sister. A boy singing about how any boy can lead the nation, in front of both of his sisters. Sure, "it was a different time." People owned slaves in "different times." Doesn't make it right or good.

[@nonprofitgirl]

@@Solenya1111 oh, clay..just enjoy Jody’s song, it’s all okay.

[@nonprofitgirl]

@@howtube61 same here! Every Little BOY can be president, Howard! Johnnie really performed so PERFECTLY. I love it so much!!

[@Solenya1111]

@@nonprofitgirl It's possible for people to hold opposing opinions "in the United States! United States! Of America..." The idea that Jodie could be president if he tried real hard, but that it was unthinkable (at that time) that Sissy might be president one day, is not an idea that I celebrate. Welcome to the USA!

[@bretstanley9449]

This was a great episode! Many episodes were sad but this is definitely one of their funny and cute ones!

[@larkpraise]

Wonderful!! One of my favorite episodes. I remember I was a kid and looking forward to Monday nights when "Family Affair" came on. What a privilege to remember watching this during its first run.

[@tinaloveseddie]

Good Job Jody!! That’s a hard song to sing!🙌😃

[@fusion8588]

Oh WOW! Some of these comments! I thought he did a magnificent job. ABSOLUTELY adorable!

[@mrob75]

so agree...

[@terridemaio2926]

Me to

[@annemarie7254]

Me three :)

[@moemcgovern7345]

Johnnie was adorable. I always enjoy this show.

[@ermilasalas7375]

These were really good shows i grew up watching these shows.

[@PeterPanQuails]

Awesome performance by Jody. Well done.

[@johnmatzye6633]

Jody didn't get jealous when Buffy was the star of his baseball team.

[@TheORIGINALBrentTheGent]

"Elder" Johnny DID a WONDERFUL JOB!!!!!

[@tookie8888]

That is some piano! Where is the band music coming from?

[@pegasusgalaxy68]

tape

[@ihavefallenandicantreachmy2113]

When the Camera is not on the Choir, the Choir is the Band and when the Camera is not on the Audience, the Audience is the Band. Do not you know anything.

[@badguitar5653]

I"ve heard this song exactly once before - Johnny Whitaker sang it during the Macy's Thanksgiving Parade from a float, maybe 66 or '67? and i can still sing along with it. Talk about an earwig...

[@funzo1159]

I remember Johnny singing this at the Macy's parade. Glad I'm not the only one who does!

[@badguitar5653]

Ha! Wouldn't you love to see footage to see how it compares to our memories?

[@funzo1159]

Absolutely! I'm sure he lip-synced it anyways.

[@SetAdrift601]

I remember it, too. Googled the refrain lyrics, ended up here. Parade version was better... I hope...

[@jimegan6783]

Haven't heard the show's theme in years. Immediately thought of Rankin-Bass Christmas specials. 😀

[@jessecoffey4737]

A few months before the episode aired (actually six months, according to 45cat) "Every Little Boy Can Be President" was released as a single on United Artists Records (#UA50296). It did not chart and it has yet to be uploaded to this website in any form other than this video. The B-side of the single, "The Garden Song", has also not been uploaded to this website.

[@karimabrahimi1907]

Merci nostalgique au bon vieux temps une belle enfance passer en compagnie des séries télévisées des années soixante dix bonne continuation et merci encore

[@frackstonwilson685]

I remember that he later performed the song live in The Macy"s Thanksgiving Day Parade.

[@veryveryveryve]

Maravilloso recuerdo..

[@jhankline8963]

Hey i just see a lady playing piano. Wheres all the other instruments at

[@stacystoltz8722]

😍 😊 😚 🐻 ❤🎉 👋🏻

[@erikaquatsch2190]

Have a girl sing that song: "Every boy can be president . . . why not me?"

[@firstptr3and10_]

Jody Davis and Opie Taylor could have been brothers. Opie was a cute little kid, too.

[@bluestarlighting29]

Jody great singer Buffy is a star of the show. A plus great show family affair air more shows fun to watch. Funny show

[@moemcgovern7345]

The children shared in the starring rolls.

[@nonprofitgirl]

Yeah! Buffy is absolutely the star. But the chemistry those kids has is a thing of wonder. :) Can you imagine waking up and knowing you had to sing that song for national TV??! And my new go to phrase is “Ready, Buff!” :)

[@pattibrooks1907]

I first saw this clip on a You Tube video in 2011 or 2012!

[@dweinzap]

CUTE!! Love this one!

[@kathrynoneill5862]

So cute.

[@pilarpascualserres4883]

Me encantaban los niños de esta serie.......

[@aussie8114]

👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

[@emeraldaisle2927]

I feel like i'm watching my own child.

[@nonprofitgirl]

Exactly!!!

[@gailjohnson4855]

Good show

[@MrALLI36]

Is it me or is the lady who’s dressed in yellow attire, sitting next to the Uncle Bill character on the couch while the family is enjoying a light dessert, the same actress that portrayed Agatha, who was Samantha’s mother on the show”Bewitched” ? There is a strong resemblance.

[@julianfranco2777]

Great Song and performance, can somebody help me with the lyrics?

[@louistenore2185]

Hey i didn't have a good voice in Grammar school Either .

[@annemarie7254]

"Jody" was my first crush...right before David Cassidy :)

[@Vayesca]

Mis adorables sobrinos en español.

[@ourtravelingzoo3740]

Cute. My fav was when Buffy was a ballerina

[@briananoriega]

I was named after Uncle Bill actor Brian Keith. I'm serious.

[@annemarie7254]

That is so cool! Brian was a good (& handsome) actor

[@tearthemhindpartsup]

Interesting. I know a guy who was named after Jodie.

[@daisymay5649]

this was just uploaded it has not been on here since 2012

[@SYVZS]

So unfair - Jody gets to do a solo even though he's tone deaf - a solo of a song that excludes women from the presidency no less - despite Buffy being banned from singing with the choir for also being tone deaf!

[@danaehawkins8289]

Watching This, Rerun! 2024/ August

[@stanbart5556]

Ugh….i can’t remember what I had for breakfast but…….

[@natvan29]

Not this episode but the first ep of season 3 and lana calls buffy Ava and on the trivia it said Buffy real name was Ava Elizabeth well no it wasn't cause 2 reasons 1 when the principal said Buffy that's unusual name Buffy or mr French would have said well it's a nick nsme her real name Ava and 2 when lana said her mom was going to name her Ava if she's hadn't named her Lana and Buffy would have said well my birth name is Ava Buffy is my nick name but she never did so Ava wasn't her name at all the same with Jody not once did i ever hear anyone say his name is Johnathan

[@bretstanley9449]

Can you imagine someone on a TV show today singing a patriotic song like this?

[@M_SC]

Can you imagine someone today believing the made up version of history that was taught in the 1960s?

[@annemarie7254]

Oh, geeez...someone would be offended, I'm sure ~ lol. These sure were the good ol' days

[@Solenya1111]

No girls allowed! How "patriotic?"

[@mrcommonsense9074]

He was truly the Justin Bieber of his time

[@nonprofitgirl]

Don’t say that! Better than any Bieber.

[@katdandy9115]

America has lost its wholesomeness

[@LandondeeL]

2:06 Where did those horns come from????

[@shinymensdressshoes]

LandondeeL From the orchestra.

[@LandondeeL]

Ha-ha-ha. There's no orchestra in sight.

[@tryithere]

He's the devil.

[@kachoo2135]

This was a good show. The 2002 version did not fare as well

[@Juliaflo]

The less said about the 2002 version, the better.

[@hexum7]

They probably had to blur the black girl on the screen because she was staring darts into the kid

[@triciajohansen7124]

Not the greatest singer, but he was a little kid. Cut him some slack!

[@GatesofDawn67]

The song Jody sings for the glee club is too difficult for him. He can't sing it in key.

[@mightyblack1]

No ,Jody had no business trying to sing.He was terrible.

[@tryithere]

There's a key?

[@pegasusgalaxy68]

he was 6 years old...wtf ! a school show. ..he did fine..do better at 6 yrs old bunch of pathetic pieces of shit

[@annemarie7254]

He WAS just a little boy, after all :) he did fine

[@archercoe8136]

Thanks for giving your critique. It was very insightful and makes you seem very knowledgeable about music. Keep spreading your gifts!!!

[@jsilence418]

Christ, this was awful ! No wonder two of the cast members offed themselves, god love them, they just couldn't live this down.

[@nonprofitgirl]

How dare you? Asshole!

[@miketheyunggod2534]

But NOT Killary Clinton. Lol.

[@joelfogelsanger5773]

She would have been a lot better than that dictator maniac we got in there now.

[@annemarie7254]

Omg.......what do you think of the dictator we got in there NOW?

[@bdh70]

Wretched song. Where was Mr.French when this whole train wreck was first under discussion? He could have stopped it!

[@watchman1178]

Well, Jody, you definitely would've been a helluva lot better than Obama.

[@joelfogelsanger5773]

Actually a lot better than Trump because Jody says in the song that if he were President he'd never tell a lie. Trump certainly can't make that claim. He lies everyday along with being an idiot and incapable of doing the job. Oh, and he's a racist and misogynist don't forget. And he colluded with the Russians to cheat to win the election. He is totally illegitimate.

[@tamikoestomo3275]

Better than Trump, you mean.

[@unionjack84]

You like what we have in office now? A paranoid schizophrenic, lying, 3 time married. adulterer, anti female, bigoted, no nothing, business failing. divisive, international embarrassing, idior who does nothing but watch the fake news station, ducks up to commies, and is a Hitler wannabe who befriends pedophiles, rapists, dictators, and anybody else he'll bound?

[@jimp4170]

My Bonny has tuberculosis My Bonny has only one lung. My Bonny coughs big green phlegmballs And rolls them around on her tongue.

[@nightfly06]

What an awful song Jody sings

[@jeanmarcks6269]

nightfly06 why is it an awe full?
