All about Eight Is Enough
Eight Is Enough is an American television comedy-drama series that ran on ABC from March 15, 1977, until May 23, 1981. The show was modelled on the life of syndicated newspaper columnist Tom Braden, a real-life parent with eight children, who wrote a book by the same title.
The Sacramento, California, family with eight children serves as the show’s main subject (from oldest to youngest: David, Mary, Joanie, Susan, Nancy, Elizabeth, Tommy, and Nicholas).
The father, Tom Bradford, writes a weekly column for the made-up Sacramento Register modeled on Tom Braden, who is portrayed by Dick Van Patten. His wife, Joan, who was modeled after Joan Braden and portrayed by Diana Hyland, was a stay-at-home mother who looked after the kids.
