Stand By Your Man is a short-lived Foreign Remake of Birds of a Feather which aired on FOX in 1992.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })The premise is simple: Rochelle Dunphy (Melissa Gilbert) is a Trophy Wife who has a nice house, and a rich husband in Roger Dunphy (Sam McMurray). In contrast, her sister Lorraine Popowski (Rosie O'Donnell) instead married low-life Artie Popowski (Rick Hall) in a shot-gun ceremony and now lives a life of poverty in a trailer park. The series begins when the sisters learn from watching TV that their husbands have been convicted of Bank Robbery and have been sentenced to 8 years in prison. Since most of Roger's wealth has been re-claimed and Artie's trailer has been repossessed, the two are forced to live with each other, with Rochelle struggling to cope with the fact that her husband isn't around anymore and Lorraine celebrating it. Finishing the trio is Adrienne Stone (Miriam Flynn), their status-conscious snooty neighbor.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })

Adapted Out: Garth (Tracey's son in the original) doesn't seem to have any counterpart in this series. Rochelle (Tracey's counterpart) does mention two children called Josh and Chelsea, although the context of the line suggests that it's just part of her future plans.

Adaptational Context Change: In the original, Sharon decided to live with Tracey partially as emotional support and partially to get away from her own miserable life. This show also adds the context of Lorraine having literally nowhere else to go, her trailer park home having been reprocessed after her husband was put behind bars.
