Wait Till Your Father Gets Home is an animated television series produced from 1972 to 1974. The 49 episodes featured Tom Bosley as Harry Boyle, the long-suffering suburban everyman dad. Jack Burns voiced right wing militant vigilante Ralph Kane, Boyle's neighbour and possibly the model for Dale Gribble on King of the Hill. The Boyle family consisted of father Harry, wife Irma (voiced by Joan Gerber ), overweight daughter Alice, lazy, unemployed young adult son Chet and a younger son, Jamie with many of the stories revolving around the generation gap between Boyle and his children. It was recently voted among Channel 4's 100 Greatest Cartoons.
The show premiered as a one-time segment on Love, American Style (as did the show Tom Bosley is better known for, Happy Days) and was spun off into a syndicated series.
