[edit] Details

The program was hosted by Marilyn Kentz and Caryl Kristensen, aka the comedy duo The Mommies. The show offered lighter fare which consisted of humor, celebrity guests, cooking segments, fashion tips and health issues. It was also a departure from the duo's last TV series (The Mommies), in which they also decided not to use the "Mommies" name this time, for they wanted to use their longtime friendship as the basis for the show.

However this program didn't click or make any friends with viewers or with several ABC affiliates who opted not to carry the program. After one year ABC would drop the show in favor of another series that would become a bigger success to this day: The View.
