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.

Blanche's unruly teenage grandson visits, and goes out every night with a rough crowd.

Sophia challenges Dorothy to prove she is spry enough to take a trip to Italy.

After a burglar enters the house, Rose buys a gun to feel more safe.

Blanche dates a young aerobics instructor; Rose's mother, Alma Lindstrom, teaches her an important lesson.
