I've afraid of Peggy! What about June Cleaver? I liked Carol, but going with Dr. Bill's wife! She was always awesome! ;)

Mostly because I wanted to be around David Cassidy.

Before I opened the poll to see the choices, I thought "Peggy Bundy better be an option".

Curiosity question: How come Claire Huxtable is the only one you don't name by first and last name? ;)

Its a shame there are not as many good family shows anymore on tv...I thought the reality shows would be long over by now.. I always enjoyed watching The Cosby Show... It was weird how their last name was Huxtable instead of Cosby.

Oh snap. That was a mistake.

She can be included in "other" though.

I loved Marion Cunningham! I also had a mild crush on Carol Brady (as did Greg).

Donna Reed.
June Cleaver might give me some 'cutsy' animal name like Beaver, or Mouse, or Perv.
OK. Maybe not Perv. I don't know where that came from. :twitch:

I always thought June Cleaver was hot.
But I'd still rather be raised by Clair Huxtable (and yes, it is "Clair" and not "Claire": http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Th ... r_Huxtable).
