Cybill is a comedy revolving around Cybill Sheridan, a working actress in Los Angeles with a stop-start career, complicated by an eccentric extended family that includes two daughters and a couple of ex-husbands. Her best friend, Maryann Thorpe, is a rich-by-settlement divorcee with a twisted sense of humor, who is a certified alumna of the Betty Ford Clinic (but in need of a refresher course). Cybill's elder daughter, Rachel, is conservative, married, has one child - and is Cybill's polar opposite. Cybill's live-in daughter, Zoey, is a brooding 18-year-old.
