‘Family Affair’s Kathy Garver Shares Her Favorite Episode on its 60th Anniversary

On Monday, September 12, 1966, Family Affair joined CBS’ must-see Monday night lineup that included Gilligan’s Island, The Lucy Show, and The Andy Griffith Show. This year marks Family Affair’s 60th anniversary, and one of the last surviving child stars, Kathy Garver, who played Cissy, is going all-in on the show’s milestone.

“On September 13, which is a day after the show actually debuted, I am hosting a 60th anniversary special with my eight favorite episodes on Catchy Comedy,” Garver tells us. “I’ll introduce the episodes and then comment on each one of them. So, it’s lots of fun, lots of nostalgia, and lots of collecting memories and laughter.”
