DeGeneres rose to national attention when her material was turned into the subject matter for the successful 1994-1998 sitcom, Ellen (called These Friends of Mine during its first season). The ABC show was popular in its first few seasons due in part to DeGeneres's style of quirky observational humor; it was often referred to as a female Seinfeld. (Before getting her own show, she had appeared in the short-lived TV series Open House (1989-1990) and Laurie Hill (1992).)
