Overview

Getting Together is an American musical situation comedy, which aired on the ABC television network during the 1971-72 season. It stars Bobby Sherman and Wes Stern as Bobby Conway and Lionel Poindexter, a songwriting duo. The pilot for the series had aired the previous spring the first season finale episode of The Partridge Family named "A Knight in Shining Armor", where Lionel and Bobby were introduced to each other by the Partridges. Sherman and Stern's characters were reportedly based on the real-life songwriting team of Boyce and Hart, who had written hits for The Monkees, Jay and the Americans, and others. New music of course was a staple of the series, provided by much of the same team that created the Partridge Family songs and records. Most of these songs were from two Bobby Sherman albums -- Getting Together and Just For You.

Primary

The film's narrative centers on a draft dodger and explores themes of personal freedom and counter-culture values, aligning with progressive ideals of the Vietnam War era.

The movie features traditional casting with no apparent intentional diversity in character representation. Its narrative focuses on a simple interaction between a man and a woman, without engaging in any critique of traditional identities or incorporating explicit DEI themes.

Secondary

The film 'Getting Together' does not feature any identifiable LGBTQ+ characters or themes. Its narrative centers on the lives and careers of two heterosexual male roommates, resulting in no portrayal of queer identity within the story.

The movie does not contain any action or adventure elements.

Getting Together is an original sitcom from 1971, not an adaptation of pre-existing material with established characters. There is no indication of any character being portrayed with a different gender than their original conception within the show's universe.

The show 'Getting Together' (1971) is a spin-off from 'The Partridge Family.' Its main characters, Bobby Conway and Lionel Poindexter, were created for this television universe and were not adapted from prior source material where their race was established differently. Thus, no race swap occurred.
