The Ellen Burstyn Show

Does anyone remember this forgotten TV series from 1986 on ABC? It was on Saturday nights following the disastrous "Life with Lucy."

I happened to catch a few clips of the show on YouTube when looking for something else and found it hysterical. It starred Ellen Burstyn as a college professor whose daughter, played by a very young Meghan Mullaly, who comes back to live at home with her five year old son in tow after a bad breakup. Adding to the complications was Burstyn's meddling mother played by the great Elaine Stritch.

The show was cancelled after 13 episodes.

Trying YouTube'ing it. You might be surprised.
Does anyone remember it?
 
I do.


Also my supervisor at work is good friends with Ellen Burstyn.
She's got a home here in Northern New Jersey.

I got to meet her once.
Very nice woman.
