TV's favorite single moms are back!
For the first time ever on DVD, this collector's edition contains all 23 hilarious unedited network episodes from the Third Season.
This ground-breaking sitcom's characters and the issues they dealt with obviously appealed to the program's audience and critics alike and are as relevant today as they were in the 80's.
Produced and directed by Bill Persky (That Girl), Kate & Allie stars Susan Saint James (McMillan and Wife) as free-spirited Kate McArdle and Jane Curtin (3rd Rock from the Sun, Saturday Night Live) as straight-laced Allie Lowell.
Critics raved as Kate & Allie became a ratings success, earning Jane Curtain two consecutive Emmy Awards for Best Actress and Bill Persky an Emmy for Best Director.
Look out for guest appearances from film actors Paul Gleason, Robert Cornthwaite, a teenage Ben Stiller plus Lindsay Wagner (The Bionic Woman), Patricia Richardson (Home Improvement, The West Wing), Barbara Barrie (Suddenly Susan), Alan North (Police Squad!), Geoff Pierson (24, Grace Under Fire), James McDaniel (NYPD Blue), David Rasche (Sledge Hammer!), Christa Miller (The Drew Carey Show, Scrubs), Michael O'Hare (Babylon 5) Mercedes Ruehl (Frasier) and legendary talk show host Dick Cavett. Daytime drama fans will enjoy seeing their favorite classic soap stars turning up in supporting roles in almost every episode.
