This controversial sitcom defined the late '70s and was an instant classic! With it's combination of implausible plots, exaggerated melodrama and a liberal dose of wackiness, this parody of TV soap operas was both popular and critically acclaimed, winning 4 Emmy Awards and 17 nominations. Surprises and shenanigans abound between the families of two sisters, Jessica Tate and Mary Campbell, where each family member is either crazy, involved in an incriminating secret, or both. The unparalleled cast features Katherine Helmond (TV's Who's the Boss?), Richard Mulligan (TV's Empty Nest), Robert Guillaume (TV's Benson), Cathryn Damon (TV's Webster), Robert Mandan (The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas), and Billy Crystal (When Harry Met Sally).
