The fourth season of Designing Women premiered on CBS on September 18, 1989, and concluded on May 21, 1990. The season consisted of 28 episodes. Created by Linda Bloodworth-Thomason, the series was produced by Bloodworth/Thomason Mozark Productions in association with Columbia Pictures Television.
Broadcast history
The season originally aired Mondays at 9:30-10:00 pm (EST) on CBS. From 1989 through 1992, Designing Women and Murphy Brown aired back-to-back, creating a very successful hour-long block for CBS, as both shows were thought to appeal to similar demographics. The show was a top 30 hit for three consecutive seasons (1989–92), making it the most successful at the time. The high ratings also helped CBS's ratings overall, which had struggled around the late 1980s.[1]
