Six friends from differing connections find love, sex, and fun. Patrick Maitland (Colin Ferguson), Steve Taylor (Jay Harrington), Jane Honda (Lindsay Price), Jeff Clancy (Christopher Moynihan), Susan Freeman (Rena Sofer), and Sally Harper (Sonya Walger) are all around 30 and single.
NBC was banking on this as being the next Friends. The British version was a smash hit, and they had calculated this to be the same. The over-exposure killed this before it started. The backlash coming from the overwhelming advertising blitz was massive. The cast in the US version comes from good TV stock. Christopher Moynihan is the only one who is clearly inferior to the British counterpart. Richard Coyle created such an original character in the British show that it was probably too much to expect the same. The scripts and the big gags are all copied from the British show. This was cynically manufactured and cancelled after only 4 episodes.
