That Girl is a pioneering American sitcom that follows the lives of Ann Marie, an enthusiastic, energetic, and aspiring young actress who leaves her hometown of Brewster, New York, to make it big in the bustling metropolis of New York City. Along the way, Ann takes on a colorful variety of temporary and odd jobs—from department store demonstrator to roller-skating waitress—to pay the rent while pursuing her artistic dreams and auditioning for modeling and theatrical roles. Anchoring Ann's whirlwind adventures is her devoted boyfriend, Donald Hollinger, a pragmatic magazine journalist for Newsview. Donald often finds himself playing the straight man to Ann's well-meaning, slightly eccentric, and comedy-of-errors escapades. Meanwhile, her protective and traditional father, Lou Marie, constantly frets over her independence and safety living alone in the big city, though he is balanced by her warm and supportive mother, Helen. Widely recognized as a feminist milestone in television history, That Girl was one of the first sitcoms to portray an unmarried, career-focused woman living independently rather than seeking marriage or domesticity as her sole fulfillment. Across five seasons, the series blended effervescent physical comedy with genuine warmth, solidifying star Marlo Thomas as an enduring television icon.
