Synopsis
"An intimate comedy-drama about the people who pursue their love fantasies in neon-lit gathering places" is how the network publicity releases described this quite incisive saga of the lonely women (and men) who have turned a well-patronized small city bar into the local pickup joint. Dolly Parton's hit song, "Single Women," which she wrote with Michael O'Donoghue (the movie's co-executive producer), as the film's inspiration. The other executive producers went on to bigger things -- among them, "The Cosby Show."
