Before nightlife fashionable cable television series "Sex and The City" , before the morning talk show
" The View " and " Housewife's of Atlanta " there was the superb sitcom
Designing Women, where four women and a man would chat to each other mainly about women's issues, where the debates were so charming and well written it kept me wanting more and more, the cast chemistry was magical and the dialogues intense, it was very political at times, but without being radical or boring. It took place in a interior design firm in Atlanta. I miss that show so much, It was pure...it belonged to an era where merchandise placement was not so much in our faces. Designing Women was created by Linda Bloodworth-Thomason, it aired on CBS from 1986 to 1993, running for seven seasons. I bought all the episodes which have become available on DVD (see link below).
Julia Sugarbaker, Charlene Frazier, Mary Jo Shively, Susanne Sugarbaker, Anthony Bouvier, Carlene Dobber, Alisson Sugarbaker, Bonnie Jean Poteet and Bernice Clifton...they are all mine forever !
