chediavolo December 17 Share December 17 Haven’t seen this show since it first aired. Watched 2 episodes so far and don’t remember anything. Not liking the sisters except the one with the husband who should be seeing a psychiatrist. Cannot stand the mother either, but yes, I am going to watch . Anyone else? 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/151133-sisters-general-discussion/
Dimity Thursday at 04:31 PM Share Thursday at 04:31 PM (edited) I discovered the show Sisters back when I was living in the States. I'd never seen it before and I loved it! Lots of drama, of course, and a young -and gorgeous - George Clooney. My favourite sister was the one played by Sela Ward. And IIRC Swoosie Kurtz wasn't nearly as painfully thin on this show as she has been in shows I've seen her in more recently. It's been years since I've seen it but I remember liking the mother. What is it about her that bothers you @chediavolo? Edited Thursday at 04:32 PM by Dimity 2 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/151133-sisters-general-discussion/#findComment-8536776

And it made no sense that at 60 something years old she had to move out of her home and into a little apartment just because her daughter’s forced her too. Plus, she really needs to get help for her alcoholism. 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/151133-sisters-general-discussion/#findComment-8536938
Anela Thursday at 09:01 PM Share Thursday at 09:01 PM I remember it. One sister marrying the ex-husband of another. Ashley Judd as a teenager. 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/151133-sisters-general-discussion/#findComment-8536982
babyrambo Friday at 11:47 AM Share Friday at 11:47 AM I heard about this show on an old shows thread a few months ago and have been trying to find a way to watch it in my region but to no avail. Based on the trailers, it looks like just my thing. But during my search for this I ended up watching the WB/CW show Related (2005), which had a similar premise of four sisters with complicated lives. Something about the four friends/sisters dealing with messy situations in a big city angle always works for me, even when it’s cheesy and shallow. Going through the catalogue of older shows I didn’t catch the first time around, I’ve noticed that ‘chick flicks’ were some of the few shows/films that broached women’s issues in any serious and compassionate way. A lot of them haven’t aged well but some of those shows really tried for nuance and care. Still, I’m thankful that there are a lot more complex female lead shows out today. 2 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/151133-sisters-general-discussion/#findComment-8537317
