Temporarily Yours is an American sitcom that aired on CBS for six episodes in 1997.

Plot

Deb DeAngelo (Debi Mazar), a young woman is desperate for a luxurious, cheaply priced New York City apartment. She lies to the landlady about having a job with a temp agency and then hurries to the agency to beg for work before the landlady calls and discovers the lie. The agency is run by Joan (Joanna Gleason), an uptight businesswoman. Joan reluctantly takes on Deb as an employee but sends her out on strange assignments.

In the pilot episode, she is sent to work as a makeup artist at a mortuary. The following episodes generally revolved around Deb's various temporary assignments and how they affected her personal life.

The series was heavily derided by critics and had low viewership and was canceled after six episodes.
