Does anyone remember this short-lived sitcom starring Madeline Kahn? It ran from 1983-1984, and was advertised by John Ritter. Does anyone know where I might be able to get episodes?

I don't know where you can get episodes. Too bad, because even though the series had some weak moments, Madeline Kahn was a riot. I especially remember an episode where she tried out to be a weather forecaster, and it was a disaster (lots of physical comedy, a la Lucy).

There was some talk about doing new episodes for first-run syndication after ABC cancelled it, but then the production company, Carsey-Werner, hit it big with "The Cosby Show", and they forgot all about "Oh, Madeline".
