Every time John Cummings tries to get that novel written, a new lady moves in next door in this hilarious comedy set on adjoining balconies of a big city apartment building near the airport. There’s Fay, a good-hearted hooker, Angel, a wanna-be star, and Gwen, a recent divorcee. A Norm Foster comic hit!

Linda’s dissatisfied with her 17-year marriage but hubby George doesn’t seem to be aware of the problem. When George moves out to give Linda a chance to “find herself”, their hilarious attempts to re-kindle the dying flame take their toll on everyone-including neighbours, Betty and Roger; Leonard, their 16-year old son; Bernard, their eccentric Granddad; and Gertie, the real life family dog. That's right–a real dog! ‘

It’s the first family re-union since Dad died. Mom tries to organize dinner, sons Carl and Michael try to get along, Michael’s wife Jill tries to get pregnant and sister Stacey tries to fit in. The tension and hilarity increase when Dad’s ghost joins the festivities with a special mission for Carl-who’s the only one who sees him! Dad and the entire household erupt when another unexpected guest arrives. Mom’s date! This show has it all—comedy, conflict, unforgettable characters and situations we all recognize. ‘
