Four mature women live together in Miami and experience the joys and angst of their golden years; strong-willed Dorothy, spacey Rose, lusty Southern belle Blanche and matriarch Sophia, Dorothy's mom, occasionally clash but are there for one another in the end; after all, when the show's theme song is titled "Thank You for Being a Friend," the ladies have to remain friendly with one another.

When two police officers set up surveillance equipment in Blanche's house, Dorothy, Rose, Blanche and Sophia are more interested in snaring the policemen.

Dorothy takes Sophia to Disney World for quality time; Rose and Blanche write a children's book.

Rose finally gets to confront her fantasy that Bob Hope is her father.

Sophia invests her roommates' money in a prizefighter named "Kid Pepe" who is a gifted violinist.
