Sanford & Son premiered on NBC on January 14, 1972. This show focused on the lives of junk and antique collectors Fred and Lamont Sanford, the people the house is named after. Lamont tries his best to get out of his lifestyle, but Fred tries his best to get Lamont to see that his life is perfect already. Whenever Fred is provoked or sees something he can't believe, he fakes heart attacks to either get out of trouble or to get his own way. Lamont always has to keep his eye on Fred because of his mischievious ways, but when worse came to worse, they always stood by one another.
