They Have a bunch of shows On DVD that didn't last that long like Tabitha ,The Greatest American Hero.so they can easly put It's a Living On Dvd wich lasted 6 seasons and Has 120 Episodes (1980-1982,1985-1989).Well Known In the 80s because of Ann Jillian was a big star at the time.The show is funny and would hold up through time.It should be out on Dvd and Online (hulu ) where people Can watch it

There are many requests for this show over at Shout! Factory's site. I think they would be great at putting together a dvd-set for this show. One suggestion though... I think they should release Seasons 1 & 2 together since they were short seasons. I wonder if Brian at Shout! would be a good person to send a message to. He has posted on here in the past. We can, at least, try.

I'm actually really surprised the series hasn't been taken from VHS somewhere and put online via bittorrent... someone out there's gotta have the episodes on VHS.

I am too. Surely, someone out there was a big enough fan to record every episode.

I've checked every place it would show up if it would shop up at all.

Bitme TV, Tvtorrents, Ioffer, Ebay, Google searches (which is how I found this forum). I think I'll check IMDb next

As Warner to release it through their Warner Archive Collection at their facebook page: http://www.facebook.com/warnerarchive .

Maybe they will put it out. There's a chance. Warner checks this page daily and takes these suggestions into serious consideration. So, let them know you want IT'S A LIVING on dvd.

Kupotek · 05-18-2010, 11:27 AM

I just posted a request on their Facebook page

Good thinking.

Still no sign of this great series on dvd. I really hope it doesn't wind up like so many series did in the 30s and 40s where episodes are lost and damaged. I have a feeling Warner hasn't digitized the series yet as it hasn't re-surfaced in reruns in a long time. But I wish they would consider releasing even a collection of episodes on dvd.

I'd love to see it, too. They had great actresses in the cast such as Louise Lasser, Susan Sullivan, Barrie Youngfellow, Ann Jillian, etc...

Everyone needs to email them service@wbshop.com to express their interest.

ThomasE · 02-06-2012, 01:54 AM

I'll try to make some time to e-mail. I would love to see this show released.

I would love to get this show! I used to watch it all the time. Even though, I'm nowhere near the viewing demographic for it...

Oh hell, it's was funny!

I'm surprised I don't see "Living" turn up on Lifetime or other similar stations geared towards female viewership.Fantastic show!My favorite characters-Ann Jillian's wisegirl waitress and the interminably insufferable piano player.I'm surprised I didn't think of HIM for over on the "Biggest Male Jerks" thread!I remember catching Gail Edwards on "M*A*S*H*" as a traveling USO performer.Marvelous chemistry between her and Alan Alda.

I think because it was in first-run syndication it was never considered 'prestigious' enough to run on Lifetime ala "Designing Women" or "The Golden Girls". With all these retro stations out there, it's time for one of them to resurrect this show.
