About this product

Product Information

Earning herself more than one Emmy and Golden Globe Award nomination for her portrayal of Nellie Ruth "Nell" Harper, Nell Carter brought this 1980s comedy sitcom to life. GIMME A BREAK! focused on the spirited Kanisky family. Not your typical family, the Kaniskys consisted of three daughters, their widowed father, and their housekeeper (Carter). With her strong opinions and humorous maternal instincts, Nellie's role extended far beyond that of a normal housekeeper, giving the sitcom its punchy premise. GIMME A BREAK! - SEASON ONE includes all 22 episodes from the show's debut season (featuring Danny Glover, Helen Hunt, and others in guest-starring roles), as well as a preview episode from the series' sophomore season.

    Gimme a break!

    Nell Harper is the no-nonsense housekeeper and surrogate mother for police chief Carl Kanisky's children: Samantha, Julie and Katie. The Kanisky daughters need all the help they can get after their mother dies - because Carl isn't exactly in touch with his feminine side. This also includes an episode in Season 2 and two episodes from Charles in Charge and Kate & Allie.

  • GIMME A BREAK! Season One

    Finally got season one of "Gimme A Break" and just love it as much now as I did back when. I have always been a fan of Nell Carter and love the gruff Dolf Sweet who has been a character actor for many years. This is a no frills show. Nell is a housekeeper who moves in with the family to care for the three daughters of a widowed police chief in a small California town. She ends up doing a lot more than just cleaning house. She becomes a surrogate mom. When you're feeling stressed out just watch some of these shows. I still find them very funny and entertaining.

  • Gimme A Break! - Season One (DVD, 2006)

    If you want to be transported back to the 80s, this three pack DVD will do the job nicely. Several episodes feature topics considered controversial or touchy in the day, especially for a major network. These topics include: teen birth control, out of wedlock teen pregnancy, race relations (including use of the "N" word), child sex education, marital infidelity, shootout resulting in death. Surprisingly, nearly every situation was handled without the sugar-coating that might be found in yesterday's sitcoms. If you expect the same lewd, crude humor found on TV or cable in 2010, you'll be dissapointed. But if you want to see tough topics, laughs, and family-oriented comedy all rolled into one and presented with tight dialog, this DVD delivers. This sitcom quite often finds an episode ...

  • Gimme A Break. Seriously.

    Who can resist Nel Carter in her finest role, ever. The late Nel Carter stole the show, one of 1980s most beloved sitcoms. And the late Dolph Sweet, the father of the house, as opposed to Nell's maid/nanny role, was irreplaceable, literally. When he died in 1985, during the show's 4th season, his character was not replaced and the show began to lose steam. Season 1 of Gimme A Break is a keeper.

  • Family sitcom

    Very funny family sitcom. Nell Carter is great.Also great deal for the money. Worth it! It's an appropiate sitcom to watch with your family and all the child actors are lovable and regular kids. Nell Carter is a diamond in the rough and could make you laugh out loud with her sense of humor. The family dynamics is great and you can see they generally care about each other.
