Off the Rack is an American sitcom television series set in the Los Angeles garment industry that aired on ABC[1] from March 15 until April 19, 1985. The series stars Ed Asner[2] and Eileen Brennan and was originally directed by Noam Pitlik. Its taping location was the ABC Television Center in Hollywood.
It was canceled after six regular episodes and one half-hour pilot, which aired as a special on December 7, 1984 (in which the locale was originally New York; the network insisted the setting be changed to Los Angeles for the series). Off the Rack premiered as a regular series in the middle of the 1984–1985 television season as a mid-season replacement on ABC on the same day as Mr. Belvedere. Writer Lissa Levin and director Noam Pitlik would go on to work for that series, following Off the Rack
