I was a young woman when I first saw this I loved it. I loved the sixties I wish I had been grown up and on my own. Or living by myself. These women were all so different but alike in ways, looking for meaningful relationships, careers and most of all love. Kate everso independent journalist. Jenny, impassioned with civil rights married to a known civil rights advocate zany leader. Tania the quiet lady living in the sophisticated art world. They all find love but none of it turns out to be what they thought it should be. All living through turbulent history of the sixties. Kate who never lies on her stories except to save face with Jenny and her husband only to ruin a politician who really wasn't so bad. Tania leaves her sculpture lover because deep down he doesn't really need her. Kate marries an actor keeps her journalism alive. They have a falling out and she makes a brash decision. Through the series all three women maintain a friendship with Rob a man they met at Berkley. He's a Korean War veteran making his way back to life. I thought he was the coolest charachter in the show level headed,, non judgemental. They all end up at a commune in the early seventies, at robs ranch. They have lots of work to do helping on a ranch. Jenny came out earlier makes a decision to be a doctor divorced joe and raises their son. At the end Rob dies after putting off surgery.
They all gather at the end and make peace with their past and move on to the future.
I experienced the sixties mostly through the music and the news. I formed some radical opinions myself!
