The Four Seasons

Three middle-class married couples — Jack and Kate Burroughs; Nick and Anne Callan; Danny and Claudia Zimmer — live in New York City and are the best of friends. Jack is a moralistic lawyer, Kate a Fortune magazine editor, Nick an insurance salesman and estate planner, Anne a housewife and photographer who enjoys taking pictures of vegetables, Danny a cheap dentist who displays symptoms of obsessive-compulsive disorder and hypochondriasis, and Claudia an insensitive Italian painter. Quarterly (in each of the four seasons), the three couples go on vacations planned by Kate.
