Starring Cindy Williams and Telma Hopkins as two single moms who work together and live together raising their kids. I barely remember this show when it aired in the 90s but a local station in my area is currently running it and I really enjoy it a lot now. Does anybody remember this show?

I have episode from when it originally aired on NBC and ABC. And some from Goodlife TV. What local network in your area is running it?

One of the local public access channels must have some deal going on with Goodlife cuz occassionally they air some Goodlife shows, including Getting By. I've recorded 5 episodes so far, but there's no telling how long they'll run it. Hopefully I'll be able to get the whole series since it's only around 32 episodes but they're currently airing the 2nd season so I may have missed most of the 1st season already if they decide not to re-air it.

Which season do you prefer?

Well, I've only actually seen a handful of episodes but, so far, I like the first season better..................before they overdosed on cheesy 90s computer graphics

i loved this show.im looking for episodes from the first season that aired on abc.if anyone has any episodes of this show please let me know.thanks

Remember it - Heck, I've been trying to get all the 32 episodes which ran for two seasons back in 93 - 94. If anyone has all the episodes (or most of them - please contact me!)

P.S. I am especially interested in ANY info on Nicki Vannice, the redhead who played the eldest daughter on the show. If anyone can list any other TV shows where she made guest appearances in, I'd be grateful. (Her imdb page is of no help and is incomplete - I should know as I contributed two guest appearances she did in sitcoms that were not listed originally!) . Thanks for the time and cooperation spent by anyone who can help me on this.

P.P.S. Merlin Santana was great but Deon Richmond absolutely ROCKS!!!
