The Tracey Ullman Show

The Tracey Ullman Show is an American television variety program led by Tracey Ullman, a British-born actress and former pop singer. It premiered on April 5, 1987 on Fox as the network's second primetime offering after Married... with Children (1987-1997), and ran through May 26, 1990. The production was handled by Gracie Films in partnership with 20th Century Fox Television. The format fused rapid-fire sketch comedy shorts with an array of musical numbers, with choreography by Paula Abdul. The program also introduced The Simpsons shorts, which later blossomed into their own series, produced by Gracie Films and 20th Century Fox Television.
