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 Dorothy plans to remarry Stan, Sophia threatens to cut her off from the family.

While Dorothy makes wedding arrangements, the others interview potential housemate Truby.

Rose tries to conceal the fact that she is dating Dr. Jonathan Newman, a little person.

Dorothy's becomes involved with a married coworker; her housemates disapprove.
