Allwhit, Inc.

Background: Allwhit, Inc. was the production company of the One Day at a Time creators Allan Manings and Whitney Blake (hence the name of the company), a husband-and-wife duo who collaborated with Norman Lear on some of his other shows such as Good Times among series. The name "Allwhit, Inc." was paired up with the "T.A.T. Communications Co." text until the fall of 1982 when Norman Lear and Jerry Perenchio purchased Avco Embassy Pictures Corporation and reincorporating it as "Embassy Television" on January 6, 1982. As a result, Allwhit Inc. became the sole co-producer with Embassy Television of One Day at a Time and this continued that way until that series was canceled in 1984.
