Family Circus is a syndicated family friendly comic strip that appears in papers across America about a content traditional churchgoing family with young children. It has run continuously since Bill Keane created it in 1960.
The character of the wife, 'Thel' was based on Keane's own wife Thelma. Thanks in large part to the support of Thelma, Keane was one of the first comic strip writers to gain back all rights to his comic.[1] Although 85 years old in 2008, Keane still writes his own strip, getting assistance from his youngest son who does the inking.
One theme in the show is the little kids (Jeffy, Dolly and Bert) getting into mischief.
