How Beautiful It Is to Survive (season 1)

The first season of How Beautiful It Is to Survive began airing on The WB in the United States on January 11, 1998 and concluded after 13 episodes on May 17, 1998.

The family was conceived by Terry Ward in 1994, while working as a scriptwriter for Animaniacs, who came up with the idea of an adult animated cartoon after being inspired by Fox’s The Simpsons. He pitched a pilot to The WB in February 1996, and the show was greenlit and began production.

All 13 episodes of the season, including extras such as the unaired pilot from 1996, were released on DVD on August 20, 2002 in Region 1 and October 14, 2002 in Regions 2 and 4. The series has since been released in syndication.
