Premise

The Armstrongs and Daleys, two married couples with very different marriages but a close friendship live next-door to each other in suburban Iowa (presumably the Des Moines, Iowa metropolitan area).

Nancy Armstrong is a traditional homemaker whose husband, Art, is a successful, earnest, but occasionally distant and cynical surgeon; their older teenage daughter Shelby is wise beyond her years and yet feels awkward, while their mischievous son Eric is about to enter puberty.

Ann Daley, transplanted from Chicago, is a professional engineer whose husband (her second), Jim, is a down-to-earth dairy farmer; their children include her troubled son Scott Morgan, from her previous broken marriage, who resented the move to Iowa and wanted to return to Chicago, due to his feeling left out in the new family dynamics; Jim's adopted Vietnamese daughter, Kim, and the young son Willie they had together.

Willie and Kim bonded beautifully although they weren't blood, and eventually Scott found himself becoming part of the family, thanks to his neighbor, Shelby, who was able to get through to him.

Jim Daley's fun-loving, hard-working father, Woody, who operates the dairy with him, is an active figure in the lives of his actual and adopted grandchildren.[1]
