The late 1980′s TV show, “Thirtysomething” created by Marshall Herskovitz and Edward Zwick has released it’s first season on dvd today. The show made it’s network television debut on ABC back on September of 1987,just 20 days before “Black Monday” when the Dow Jones industrial average dropped nearly 23 percent.

The event immediately put the show in jeopardy,but the recession that followed was brief,and the show got to live on for about 4 more years until the near end of the Bush presidency in 1991.

The show revolved around a good looking ad man, Michael Steadman (Ken Olin),his stay at home wife,Hope (Mel Harris), and their group of self-analyzing friends.

The show achieved its highest rating during the first 15 minutes of the premiere.
