The mellow 1960s clashed with the conservative 1980s in this generation-gap
comedy, which in some ways reflected America's changing values in the Reagan era.
President Reagan, in fact, called Family Ties his favorite show. It was set in
middle America, Columbus, Ohio, where onetime flower children Elyse and Steve
Keaton still espoused the liberal values of the idealistic 60s,
although they were now parents and professionals.

He was the manager of the local public TV station and she was an architect.
Their children's ideals were something else. Alex was Mr. Conservative, habitually
dressed in a suit and tie and with a picture of William F. Buckley over his bed.
Mallory was into designer jeans, boys, and junk food,
while Jennifer just wanted to be a kid.

They were a loving family, though the kids never could understand
those Bob Dylan records their parents kept playing.
