Nine to Five (TV series)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Nine to Five was an American situational comedy based on the 1980 film of the same name.
Nine to Five aired from 1982 to 1983 and from 1986 to 1988. The show, which aired on ABC (1982-83) and in first-run syndication (1986-88), featured Dolly Parton's younger sister, Rachel Dennison, in Parton's role; Rita Moreno and Valerie Curtin took over Lily Tomlin and Jane Fonda's roles, respectively. In the second version of the show, Sally Struthers replaced Moreno. A total of 85 episodes were filmed.
Jane Fonda, who played Judy in the film version, acted as executive producer during the show's first season. However, she quit the show after a dispute over the direction of the show. The first season was on film in front of a studio audience but switched to videotape for the next season.
