“The Jeffersons’ ” Tom and Helen Willis
When it debuted in 1975, “The Jeffersons” was on the receiving end of a lot of attention. Not only did it feature an upwardly mobile Black family, the sitcom also starred an interracial couple. The show may have been a comedy but George Jefferson held some of the same views many Americans felt at that time towards his neighbors Tom and Helen Willis. Tom was white and Helen was Black and they were the butt of many jokes by George. In real life, Roxie Roker was married to a Jewish man and they had one child, rocker Lenny Kravitz.
