Jennifer Hudson Sings "The Jeffersons" TV Theme Song

Live In Front of a Studio Audience, the 90-minute restaging of two classic episodes of Norman Lear sitcoms performed by an all-star cast, "All In The Family" and "The Jeffersons". The back-to-back staging of the All in the Family episode “Henry’s Farewell” and the first-ever episode of The Jeffersons, an All in the Family spin-off, worked on more levels than that. It was effective as a televised stage play; as, yes, an admittedly nostalgia-riddled exercise in watching contemporary actors try to nail the mannerisms of old sitcom characters; and as a reminder that the same social issues addressed in these nearly 50-year-old comedies remain relevant today.
