Synopsis

Divorced Alan Thackeray (Pressman) was a single father of daughter Amy (Natasha Ryan) and was completely surrounded by women. At home, with advice on raising Amy, was his cheerful next-door neighbor, Betty Brill (Karen Morrow). At Women's Life magazine, the magazine he worked at, he was also surrounded by women. The staff included fellow columnists: serious minded Gretchen (Simone Griffeth); Susan (Allison Argo), a militant feminist; and romantic minded reporter Andrea Gibbons (Betty Kennedy); and all were supervised by the magazine's hard-to-please editor, Elaine Holstein (Sorel). The only other male at Women's Life, aside from Alan, was the harried accountant, Reggie (Edelman).

Situations dealing with his homelife and work life, which was completely surrounded by women was the main premise of the series.
