Oh Gimme A Break ran for 6 seasons, was seen by viewers for 7 years,
1981 to 1987, through the good times and the fears.
Gimme A Break fans looked forward to New Years 6 times during the shows 6 year run, New Years 1982-1987,
They wondered what would be in store for the show the following year to come, and if Gertrude once again will go to heaven.
In 1982, the fans waited to see what the new year would bring,
It brought Sam Stealing a squad car, the Kanisky house being robbed by idiots, and a hell of a lot of amazing things.
In 1983, the fans were treated, to grandpa robbing a bank,
The show getting a new theme song, but the opening credits still featured Nell sucking Gertude from the tank.
In 1984 the fans were excited, to see what they got to see,
Nell graduating from Night School, Katie from high school, and Nell finding out she was really only 33!
In 1985, the fans were deeply moved, by many different things that happened on the show,
An episode aired live from Hollywood, Sammy Davis guest starred, Jonathan married Julie, and the Cheif passed away...to which many fans responded "Oh No!".
In 1986, the fans saw more of Nells Mother, who unexpectedly arrived at Nell's door,
they saw Julie through her materinity, and saw each of the Kanisky girls out the door.
They saw Addy move to New York, and Sam going to College, and Joey meeting his father it's true,
They saw Nell move to New York, leave Glenlawn behind, and met Joeys little brother Matthew.
In 1987, the fans knew the show wasn't in perfect heaven, since it had changed drastically 9 months before,
Yet the fans saw Joey being a gigilo, Nell going to save her father's church in Alabama, and Nell seeing her mother and old flame Ernie out the door.
There you have what happened in a nutshell, in each of the New Years that Gimme A Break aired,
And if those stupid producers knew better, they should have never cancelled it, for it deserved another season to wrap up, and should have been spared.
