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.

A teacher breathes life into Dorothy's decades-old crush on him; Rose makes her debut as a TV producer.

Blanche's childhood nanny pays a visit; Sophia's matchmaking irks Dorothy.

Dorothy receives pressure because she refuses to give a passing grade to the school football star.

Blanche fails to seduce her date and is heartbroken; Dorothy goes bananas over a "Beatlemania" cast member.
