Featuring expanded themes and characters introduced in writer-director-producer Tyler Perry's "Why Did I Get Married?" movies, this adult-oriented sitcom focuses on three couples at various stages of their relationships. It centers on successful beauty salon owner Angela and her longtime husband, Marcus, a former pro football player who produces and anchors a highly rated sports TV show. His business partners are Richard and Joseph, but it's a tangled relationship in that Richard has dated -- and later marries, then divorces -- Keisha, Marcus' ex-girlfriend and the mother of his teenage daughter. And if that isn't awkward enough, Joseph's sometime-girlfriend, Leslie, is Angela's best friend. It all adds up to a potent mix of business and pleasure... for better or worse.
