The show has always struck me as a poor-man's "Absolutely Fabulous" - the escapades of two moderately attractive, wealthy, divorced women who are best friends. They fall into situations that would make Lucy and Ethyl scratch their own heads. The comedy revolves around their views which stem from their own self-indulgence. The character of Cybill's daughter, Zoe, is usually an unwilling witness to the goings-on, and handles the situations with dread.
Christine Baranski steals the show, while Cybill Shepherd comes off as flat and without conviction. I don't mean to slam the show, but I do feel that it was not all it could have been. Worth watching.
