We've Got Each Other is an American television sitcom that aired on CBS from October 1, 1977, to January 7, 1978.

The television series follows the lives of the Hibbard couple as they navigate their neighbors, work, and daily life.^[1] In this series, the roles of housewife and business-man are reversed. Judy is the family's breadwinner.

Stuart Hibbard (Oliver Clark), who works from home and writes for a mail order catalogue ("Herman Gutman Mail Order Catalogs") is married to Judy Hibbard (Beverly Archer) who works as an office manager for forgetful photographer Damon Jerome (Tom Poston).^[1] Both Judy and Stuart had a nemesis in their daily lives: self-centered model, Dee Dee Baldwin (Joan Van Ark) was Judy's, and their next door neighbor, Ken Redford (Martin Kove) was Stuart's.

Production

The show was created by Tom Patchett and Jay Tarses for MTM Enterprises and CBS, it aired Saturdays following The Bob Newhart Show (also produced by MTM Enterprises), replacing The Mary Tyler Moore Show. The show did not garner critical or commercial success, with cancellation coming after just 13 episodes. At the time, Tarses was quoted in TV Guide as saying he wouldn’t have watched it if he’d been a viewer: “I have better things to do with my time.”^[2]
