thirtysomething is a television drama series that aired on ABC from 1987 to 1991. It details the lives of seven friends in their 30s — former Sixties counterculture types turned Bourgeois Bohemians — living in suburban Philadelphia. The main characters are: Michael Steadman - An advertising executive. Hope Steadman - Michael's wife, a freelance journalist raising their newborn daughter, Janey. Elliot Weston - Michael's advertising partner, who, at the beginning of the series, is having marital problems after an affair with a co-worker. Nancy Weston - Elliot's wife, an aspiring artist raising their two children, Ethan and Brittany. Nancy battled ovarian cancer during the last two seasons. Melissa Steadman - Michael's photographer cousin. Gary Shepherd - An English professor who was Michael's best friend. Gary tragically dies in a car accident a few episodes into the final season. Ellyn Warren - Hope's girlhood friend, a career woman. Miles Drentell - Michael and Elliot's Bad Boss, who employed them once their ad agency went bankrupt. Susannah Hart - Gary's girlfriend and later wife, who eventually bore him a daughter, Emma.Not to be confused with the Hugh Laurie Britcom Fortysomething.As usual, you can find the basics at The Other Wiki and at IMDB.

But Not Too Gay: The show got a burst of publicity as being the first program to feature a gay couple in bed together. However, the actors playing the couple were not allowed to touch each other, and the network later refused to rerun the episode due to negative advertising reaction.
