Originally holding the working title Girlfriends and described as a "Latino Living Single",[1] the series premiered on September 10, 1995, and last aired an original episode on December 17, 1995, after which time it was put on hiatus by The WB,[2] leaving four episodes unaired.
The sitcom followed energetic, ambitious, chubby Jackie (Jackie Guerra), a Yale University graduate who now has a trendy hair salon in Los Angeles, California, attends law-school classes at night, and longs to find a man.
She shares an apartment with her friends Dominique (Leah Remini), a cynical assistant at Ventura Records, and Susan (Mia Cottet), who's about to get her psychotherapist license and is neurotic herself.
She's good friends with her co-workers at the salon, Rosa (Tracy Vilar) and Freddy (Harry Van Gorkum), an obnoxious, womanizing English hairstylist.
Rounding out the cast are Madeline (Roxanne Beckford), a yuppie executive who lives across the hall, and Nathan (Craig Anton), Jackie's klutzy, sex-obsessed childhood friend.
