ABOUT THE SHOW:
Abby Binder has gone through many roommates during her time at the Bristol Place Senior Living Facility, in no small part due to both her bristly and sarcastic personality and her desire to remain distraction-free and alone. But when Marilyn Dunne moves in with her cheerful and bright demeanor, Abby may have finally met her match.
