    It's a Living

    Totally fine. I can't tell you how many times I've gotten names and other things crisscrossed in my posts. We read and post so much, see so many different names, that sometimes things just blur together. No harm done.

    It's a Living

    It's a Living is an underrated comedy. I'd agree with that statement. The ABC seasons were decent, but the couldn't get the ensemble set-up right.

    It's a Living

    I enjoy the show most when Ann Jillian is still apart of the cast. To me, it isn't quite IT'S A LIVING without her wisecracks. It was still good with Sheryl Lee Ralph, but I just don't like it quite as good.
