Post-Cancellation
After "It Takes Two" was cancelled, Golden West Television, the company that provided production facilities for the shows produced by Witt/Thomas (and Harris), distributed syndicated reruns of the series (along with its sister series, "It's a Living") to local stations during the 1983-84 season.
This was the rare instance of a series that was only produced for one season being picked up for off-network, local station reruns.
