Work It was an American television sitcom that ran on ABC from January 3rd to January 10th, 2012, and an unknown New Zealand Channel from August 28th to November 6th, 2013, as a mid-season replacement for the cancelled Man Up!. The series is set in St. Louis and is about two men who must dress as women in order to keep a job in a bad economy.

The show was notable for its negative reception by both critics and viewers alike,[1][2] who criticized the show's premise that was considered dated and offensive to both LGBT people and women, its weak humour, and poor acting.[3]

Thirteen episodes were produced for the series, with only the first two airing in America and the rest airing in New Zealand. Of these, only one episode and various promos containing footage from lost episodes have resurfaced.

Simply put, the whereabouts of Work It is unusually confusing and elusive for an ABC sitcom show.

The full show was later uncovered on April 10th, 2021, by "Halofan" after getting it off of a private tracker.
