Articulating his thoughts, he said, “The focus really was on the kids and their lives. This is, too, a part of the genius of Lloyd Schwartz and Sherwood Schwartz both. The way to keep us connected to what we were doing here, was to let us be kids.”

The Growing Up Bardy star remembered being tasked with watching the kids, which then affected how the show was made.

Williams noted, “I basically would look at the show from the kids’ point of view and my dad would have the point of view of the adult.”

Lloyd also participated in the conversation and stated that when it was about minding the kids, he “just treated it a little bit like summer camp. We just wanted them to be kids, which caused problems later on for me.”
