Life with Elizabeth is an American sitcom starring Betty White as Elizabeth and Del Moore as her husband Alvin; Jack Narz is the on-camera announcer and narrator. The series aired in syndication from October 7, 1953 to September 1, 1955.
The show was the first of numerous sitcoms for Betty White across the decades and was based on sketches involving the Elizabeth character that she had performed on her earlier talk show Hollywood on Television.
The low-budget comedy was produced by and filmed at a local Los Angeles TV station where White and Moore were on the staff (the series was originally a live production on KLAC-TV in 1951). Betty White received her first Primetime Emmy Award nomination for her work on this series.
Betty White is a pioneer of early TV Sitcoms!
I love Betty White! I got “Life With Elizabeth” on DVD for Christmas one year. 🙂

That’s great Dee! I liked a Christmas episode where the father I think gets a job working in the Depatment Store and winds up giving the toys away! And the manager who gives him a hard time pays for the total amount as he gets into the Cristmas Spirit!
