Your HOLIDAY SOR-BAY: Dragnet: The Big .22 Rifle for Christmas and Mike and Gloria Stivic had a baby on CBS-TV's All in The Family.


Here is a "HOLIDAY SOR-BAY" little spark of madness

that we could use to artificially maintain our Christmas spirit.


Dragnet:  (First aired December, 18th 1952). The Story is as relevant today as it was then.


And in Television History
December 22, 1975
Mike and Gloria Stivic had a baby on CBS-TV's All in The Family.

Joseph Michael Stivic was the son of Michael and Gloria Stivic, and grandson of Archie and Edith Bunker, and was born during the sixth season of All In The Family. The character first appeared as a newborn baby in the two-part episode "Birth of the Baby" which aired on December 15 & 22, 1975. In 1976 the Ideal Toy Company released a 14-inch "Joey Stivic doll" (called "Archie Bunker's Grandson") which was billed as the "first anatomically correct male doll." The doll inspired mild controversy at the time, and is a collectors' item today.
