Oh Madeline is an American sitcom television series starring Madeline Kahn that aired on ABC from September 27, 1983 to March 13, 1984. It was based on the British sitcom Pig in the Middle that aired on ITV from 1980 until 1983.
Madeline, bored with her predictable, sedate existence in a middle-class suburb, and wanting to put some zest back in into her life, decides to try every trendy diversion that she can find - such as seaweed-based health foods, exercise clubs, and "ladies only" clubs featuring male strippers.
The show contained a lot of slapstick comedy, as well as marital misunderstandings in the tradition of I Love Lucy. The show is notable as the first television show produced by Carsey-Werner Productions, which would go on to produce numerous sitcoms with comedians as leads over the next several decades. Kahn would work with Carsey-Werner again on Cosby (which was also based on a British sitcom One Foot in the Grave) in 1996 until her death in 1999.
