Getting Along Famously
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Getting Along Famously is a Canadian sitcom which aired on the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation.
Set in the early '60s, Getting Along Famously features real-life couple Colin Mochrie and Debra McGrath as the temperamental darlings of CBC variety television, with Robin Duke, Bob Martin and Patrick McKenna.
The pilot episode, Saving Ruby's Ass, aired January 10, 2005. It was one of three sitcom pilots aired by the CBC, along with Walter Ego and Hatching, Matching and Dispatching, as a viewer response poll. Pilots that polled favourably were developed into full series. The CBC previously employed this strategy with the shows Rideau Hall and An American in Canada.
A season of six episodes was commissioned by the CBC, and aired on that network as follows:
| Episode # | Original Air Date (CBC) | Episode Title |
|---|---|---|
| 1-01 | 6 January 2006 | Brought to You By... |
| 1-02 | 13 January 2006 | Sister Song |
| 1-03 | 20 January 2006 | Toucha My Hand |

| 1-05 | 3 February 2006 | It's Better to Rhyme Than to Receive |
| 1-06 | 3 March 2006 | It's Ruby and Kip |
The series was released on DVD in October 2006.
