PLOT:

season 1 - 
Henry's daughters want to live downstairs. Birth-control pills turn up in Sara's room. Jackie must keep $100,000 overnight. Muriel and Henry's anniversary plans change when Sara and her friend Monroe are arrested. Muriel moves out when she and Henry disagree over Sara's new job. After a disagreement with Henry, Jackie and Sara move to a tenement. Sara's promotion starts rumors at the bank. Henry and his boss set out to capture the crooks who stole Sara's purse. Henry and Muriel's table doesn't include a setting for a lion that wanders into their dinner party. Sara believes that Monroe needs a sex surrogate to overcome his problems. Muriel's divorced college friend arrives for a visit and propositions Henry. Muriel's former boyfriend stops by for dinner and directs his attention to Jackie. While on jury duty, Henry creates havoc when he unknowingly destroys a piece of evidence. Henry's feisty father arrives unexpectedly. Muriel takes a stand for independence when Henry objects to her photographing a male centerfold. Jackie continues her relationship with a married man despite opposition from the family. Henry and Muriel go on a skiing trip, which gives Sara the opportunity to offer her parents' apartment to Monroe to stay during Spring Break, as Monroe's parents do not want him to visit. Henry feels the pains of unemployment after he's fired for satirizing the president in a cartoon. The girls try to contact Rafkin's spirit.

season 2 - 
It's Muriel's 42nd birthday, and she discovers she's pregnant. Henry finds it difficult to tolerate his free-spirited niece who is staying with the family. Muriel and Henry wonder if Sara is their real daughter. Sara decides to go out with one of Jackie's former boyfriends. Muriel and Henry must decide if they want to know their baby's sex before it's born. A bum shows up and says that he and their previous tenant were close. However, he appears not to know that their tenant was a transvestite and they don't tell him. When he leaves something behind, they bring it back to him and discover that he's also keeping a secret. The Rush family starts a round of bickering when Henry decides to make out his will. A self-effacing Monroe takes an assertiveness-training course that turns him into an egomaniac. Muriel's latest assignment interferes with Henry's 25th anniversary plans. Jackie falls in love with a policeman, much to Henry's disappointment. April's affair with a middle-aged music executive doesn't sit well with Henry. When a fanatical fan steals the Cosmic Cow puppet, Henry sets out to recover it.
