We're moving on up for this episode of Pilot Program as we cover the classic 1975 sitcom, The Jeffersons. A spin-off of Norman Lear's seminal work of All In The Family, The Jeffersons sees George and Louise, an upwardly mobile black couple move to "a deluxe apartment in the sky" of Manhattan, and how they they react to their newfound wealth. We have a great discussion about smart casting decisions, the importance of the live studio audience and the lasting legacy of this beloved 11-season show.
