Monday, April 8
ABC, 10 to 11 p.m. ET
Another week, another crisis for the Lily/Rick (Sela Ward/Billy Campbell)
family, who just can't seem to get a break. Now, in addition to troubles with
their kids, exes and siblings, they've got parent trouble. When Lily's mother
(Bonnie Bartlett, Tuesdays With Morrie) comes to visit, it's clear that her
memory is failing. Lily suspects it may be the onset of Alzheimer's, but her
mother refuses to acknowledge that anything is wrong. Paul Mazursky appears
as Lily's late father in dream sequences.
