Storyline

When former mean girl Amanda Vaughn moves back to Dallas 18 years after high school, former unpopular teen-turned-diva-of-Dallas Carlene Cockburn gets a major dose of PTSD. To top it off, Amanda's living across the street from the Cockburns with her feisty mother Gigi Stopper! Amanda has changed for the morally better but Carlene and her other victims - the GCBs - have their doubts. The GCBs now rule the school that is Dallas society and are about to settle the score with Amanda Vaughn.

User Reviews

Lots of humor

I do love this show - it's full of humor, good quotes. It gives good chance to laugh of every days situations, to see your problems different. Also to see some imperfections on ourselves and other happy families. I would recommend it for nice evening with cup of tea. Very feminine, but men also can find some pearls. What is more - I do love the crew. Leslie Bib and Jennifer Aspen makes great team. Also you will find some hot-ties in there. The most charming character is Amanda's mom (Annie Potts - she acts Gigi Stopper). This woman shows, that even in late 50's women can be charming and active. Also this show is about new start in old place. And little bit about Christianity. But not to much, so could be appropriate also for non religious people. I do recommend to watch few series to feel it.
