Married Life is a Canadian television comedy-drama series, which aired in 1995.[1] Created by Ken Finkleman as a parody of early 1990s reality television shows such as The Real World and Cops,[2] the series stars Robert Cait and Karen Hines as Frank and Ivy, a young engaged couple who agree to have their first months of marriage documented by television producer George Britton (Finkleman) for a television reality show, only to have Britton manipulate them into decisions, including having extramarital affairs, designed to boost the show's ratings with sensationalism.[3]

The cast also includes Mark Farrell, Jeremy Hotz, Wayne Flemming, Rosemary Radcliffe, Claire Cellucci, Angela Asher, Brad Brackenridge and Tony Ning.

The series aired on The Movie Network in Canada,[1] and on Comedy Central in the United States.[4]

The series was a Gemini Award nominee for Best Comedy Series at the 10th Gemini Awards.[5] Finkleman also received nominations for Best Direction in a Comedy Series and Best Writing in a Comedy Series, Joan Hutton was nominated for Best Photography in a Comedy Series, and the cast were collectively nominated for Best Performance in a Comedy Program or Series (Individual or Ensemble).[6]

Finkleman went on to produce The Newsroom for CBC Television in 1996; that show, and virtually all of Finkleman's subsequent series, included Finkleman playing a television producer similar in character to George Britton, but renamed George Findlay.
