Material World was a Canadian television sitcom, which aired on CBC Television from 1990 to 1993. In its first season, the show was a conventional sitcom, shot on videotape with a laugh track, but in subsequent seasons the show adopted a comedy-drama format. The show starred Laura Bruneau as Kitty, a Toronto fashion designer. The cast also included Linda Sorenson as Kitty's mother, Jayne Eastwood as her office assistant Bernice, Chris Potter as her boyfriend Tim, and Angela Dohrmann as her roommate Angela. The show's original theme song was sung by Taborah Johnson. When it adopted the comedy-drama format, it used Bob Wiseman's "What the Astronaut Noticed and Then Suggested" as its theme music.
