Hearts Afire is a sitcom that aired from September 14, 1992 to February 1, 1995 on CBS. It starred John Ritter and Markie Post as husband and wife, with Post portraying a journalist and Ritter playing a senator's aide.
The series' title is taken from a line in the Earth, Wind & Fire song "That's the Way of the World" (which originally served as the series' theme song).
The series was independently produced by Mozark Productions (series executive producer Linda Bloodworth-Thomason's company) and Adam Productions (Ritter's company) under the dummy company "Hearts Afire Productions". It did not receive any outside help from any major studio, although another independent distributor, Genesis Entertainment, handled international distribution outside the U.S. Because of this and the fact that only 54 episodes were produced, the series was never made available for television syndication, although in recent years cable's USA Network aired reruns.
