What happens
Grace Under Fire is an American television sitcom that aired on ABC from September 29, 1993, to February 17, 1998. Created by Chuck Lorre, the series starred Brett Butler as Grace Kelly, a single mother and recovering alcoholic raising three children in a small town in Missouri after finally divorcing her abusive husband. The series was produced by Carsey-Werner Productions, known for other hit sitcoms such as Roseanne and The Cosby Show. The series was praised for its mix of comedy and drama, tackling serious issues such as alcoholism, domestic abuse, and single parenthood while maintaining a humorous tone. It became one of ABC’s most-watched sitcoms during its early seasons and earned Butler critical acclaim, including a Golden Globe nomination and multiple People’s Choice Awards. Despite its initial success, the show faced production difficulties, largely due to Butler’s personal struggles, leading to cast changes and a decline in ratings. It was ultimately canceled in 1998 after five seasons. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
