Bridget Loves Bernie: The Complete Series [4 Discs] [DVD]

CBS's one-season situation comedy Bridget Loves Bernie starred Meredith Baxter and David Birney (real-life paramours who later wed) as the married title characters. Bernie Steinberg was a struggling writer from a working-class Jewish family, who drove a taxicab to support himself; Bridget Fitzgerald Steinberg was his bride, an elementary school teacher who hailed from a wealthy Irish Catholic clan. Episodes generally concerned the ethnic, cultural and socioeconomic clashes between the two families. Co-stars included Bibi Osterwald, Audra Lindley and Harold J. Stone. This box set contains the entire series, which ran from the fall of 1972 through the spring of 1973.
