Grace Under Fire is an American sitcom that aired on ABC from September 29, 1993 to February 17, 1998. The show starred Brett Butler, as a single mother learning how to cope with raising her three children alone after finally divorcing her abusive husband. The series was created by Chuck Lorre and produced by Carsey-Werner Productions.
Grace Under Fire was the highest rated new comedy of the 1993–1994 season.
Premise of show
Grace Under Fire, produced by Carsey-Werner International, was part of a wave of shows in the late 1980s and 1990s that were built around a comedian (and in some cases, closely based on his or her comedy routine). As for Carsey-Werner, many of their shows were based on non-traditional, non-nuclear families.
Grace Under Fire followed a similar formula; set in a small Missouri town, Butler starred as Grace Kelly, a divorced single mother and recovering alcoholic. The show begins after the main character divorces her abusive alcoholic husband of eight years in an attempt to start life anew and prevent her children from making the same mistakes she did. The show revolved around Grace; her children, mischievous Quentin (Noah Segan, pilot; Jon Paul Steuer, seasons 1-3; Sam Horrigan, seasons 4-5), happy-go-lucky Libby (Kaitlin Cullum), and infant Patrick (Dylan and Cole Sprouse); her happily married best friends and neighbors, Nadine and Wade Swoboda (Julie White and Casey Sander); and the town's bachelor pharmacist, Russell Norton (Dave Thomas). All of them helped Grace keep whatever shreds of sanity she had left.
Mok Kwai-lan (Liu Xuan) is an ordinary girl working as a water labourer in one of Guangzhou's most famous restaurants. She lives in a simple and steady lifestyle with her uncle, Mok Ping (Law Lok-lam), and Ping's adopted son, Yau Sam-shui (Kenneth Ma). This simplicity is shaken when she meets the unsociable and eccentric young boxer Lui Ching-lung (Bosco Wong) in an underground martial arts arena, and the ambitious Kwai Fa (Fala Chen), an assistant chef who begins working in the same restaurant as her. Longing for Fa's affections, Sam-shui hopes to become a student of Wong Fei Hung (David Chiang), the greatest martial artist of Guangzhou, in order to impress her. Kwai-lan, originally uninterested in martial arts, becomes spellbound by the sport after watching an intense fight between Fei-hung and Fok Koon-wai (Kenny Wong), a Mizongyi practitioner.
Brett Butler's 1993 sitcom about a divorced mom bringing up three children was doing well on ABC, but around season four they started to tinker with the format. Mom quit her job at the oil refinery to go to school, and by the end of the season she was working at an ad agency. As the show's blue-collar focus took a hit, so did the ratings. After a weak season four, egged on by Butler's erratic behavior, ABC cancelled the show halfway through season five. Over the years they used two different themes, and both are included here:
0:00 Original opening titles: Theme music was 'Lady Madonna' by Aretha Franklin. After three seasons the opening was redesigned and the music replaced by:
0:59 Revised opening: New visuals with a new theme: 'Perfect World', written and performed by Michael O'Brien (...

What Really Happened To Grace Under Fire's Brett Butler
At the time it was on the air, it was one of the most popular sitcoms on TV, but Grace Under Fire hasn’t stayed in the public consciousness like other shows of the mid-90s.
The Chuck Lorre sitcom starred Brett Butler as a newly single mother facing the struggles of small-town life, but there was a lot going on behind the scenes that led to the show’s quick cancellation in 1998. We haven’t been hearing from Brett Butler much since the show went off the air, but she’s continued to work, despite the fact that she’s still a polarizing figure. Let’s take a look at what happened to Grace Under Fire star Brett Butler.

Grace Under Fire
Grace Under Fire is a message that will address the current spiritual climate that is surrounding us in the world. God is still on the throne and in charge, but we must train ourselves to trust in His plan and not ours. God's got this and He has you too!

This opening retroactively replaced 'Lady Madonna' for all of seasons 1-2-3. It was shorter than 'Lady Madonna' (in tv every second counts) and they didn't have to pay rights fees to Aretha or Paul McCartney (composer) for streaming/syndicated showings.
1:32 End credits music: Some episodes used this rather generic twanging that doesn't sound connected to either of the show's themes. Later episodes had no end credits music at all.
