Fortunately, her friends are there to help: Sam, a commitment-phobe who flips women faster than real estate; Chris and Kris, a lesbian couple expanding both their pet accessory business and their family; and Crutch, a young musician who wants to be taken seriously but still has some growing up to do. Surviving singlehood, couplehood – and each other – has never looked quite like this. As far as lesbian TV shows go, this is one of our all time favorites, it’s funny and light-hearted with a happy ending.
