SYNOPSIS

The adaptation of Terry McMillan’s best-selling novel, about four middle-class, African-American friends, and their continuing efforts to find Mr. Right. The story begins with Bernadine, whose husband John calmly announces that he’s leaving her — for a white woman. Furthermore, the wealthy John has been manipulating his finances, and leaves Bernadine virtually broke. But Bernie gets her revenge, in a rather “fiery” fashion. Then there’s Savannah, who re-ignites a relationship with her ex-boyfriend, who’s married with children. Meanwhile, dim Robin dates hordes of Mr. Wrongs before going back to Russell, who’s also married. Will either come to her senses.
