This show speaks to me in so many ways. I tried to hide the trouble in my 1st marriage to try and keep up a great face, but in Abby's case, something blows up and you get it found out, then the whole world knows. Then damage control, the divorce baggage, then try and date again. Seems like you hit a point and you cease to exist as you were. You become so entwined with him, you lose all of what you on e were and what attracted u to him. I think this series hits on this.

Along with accurately depicting issues of divorce this series gives the female's perspective. The tasteful, yet, seductive adventures behold the truths of fantasies and reality. In a time of diverse challenges where turmoil and joy bring welcoming opportunities. This episode gives hope to those struggling with a complicated divorce. Acceptance is key. I hope this series proves worthiness to it's affiliates and producers giving viewers many seasons!

Fell in love with this show and binge watched season 1- literally have downloaded multiple apps thinking they carried full episodes only to go through the trouble to see clips! If you can't access a show to watch- how in the hell can it get good ratings? Just like Abby and Babs trying to reach viewers- you'd have thousands more if you were on a different network!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
