The Baxters is an American-Canadian sitcom that aired as a syndicated series from September 1979 to August 1981. The original American incarnation of the series aired locally from 1977 to 1979 on the Boston station WCVB; in 1979, Norman Lear took over production, and a recast version aired nationally in the 1979-80 television season. Facing cancellation, the series was then acquired by a Canadian firm who moved the production to Toronto, Ontario and recast it again, and lasted one more season as a Canadian series before ending its run in 1981.
