1993: No More 'Room For Two' on ABC
This day in 1993 marked the last telecast of the ABC sitcom, Room For Two.
The short-lived series — which debuted in 1992 and followed the top-rated Roseanne in the ABC lineup — starred Linda Lavin and current The Middle star Patricia Heaton. Lavin played a widow who moved from her Ohio home to be with her New York City-based daughter, a TV producer. When mom moved to town, she landed a gig as a commentator for Wake Up, New York — the show produced by her daughter (and now boss).
Room For Two marked Lavin's return to television after the 1985 cancellation of her long-running CBS series, Alice.
