Designing WomenThe streaming platform announced this week that the Linda Bloodworth-Thomason-created cult classic, which ran on CBS from 1986-1993, will begin streaming on Aug. 26 — Women’s Equality Day.
If you’ve never seen this show before, now is your chance to binge-watch the entire series and I assure you, you won’t be disappointed. Dixie Carter, who plays Julia Sugarbaker, runs design firm Sugarbaker and Associates out of her house with her sister, Suzanne ; divorced mom Mary Jo ; and extremely naive Charlene — even Dolly Parton made a guest appearance. If that’s not enough funny for you, Anthony Bouvier regularly joins the ladies and dishes out life advice only an ex-con can.
The comedy addresses everything from social and political humor, sex, divorce, women’s issues, religion, homosexuality, and everything in between. It was one of the first to feature an almost all-female lead cast who aren’t afraid to tell it like it is, all with some sweet southern charm thrown in for good measure .
