Background

After the conclusion of her HBO sketch comedy series, Tracey Takes On... (1996–99), Tracey Ullman decided to take a step back from television, citing exhaustion from years of having to wear heavy prosthetic makeup for her many television characters. In 1999, she signed on for Woody Allen's film Small Time Crooks, as well as the film Panic. Despite making a conscious decision to move away from television, she announced her intent to someday return. She hoped to create a new comedy series, one in which she would play a few characters with minimal makeup. In the meantime, Ullman busied herself with her online fashion-focused boutique and blog, Purple Skirt, which she had launched in 1999. In 2001, she decided to spin-off the web site into a fashion talk show and reality show for the Oxygen television network, co-founded by American talk show host, Oprah Winfrey in 2001. Tracey Ullman's Visible Panty Lines, a show showcasing fashion and style advice from industry experts, along with sit-down interviews with celebrities discussing their own personal style, debuted in September 2001.[1] The show ran for two seasons.
