Description:
Cybill aired on CBS from 1995 to 1998. Cybill was a sexy, sophisticated series, comically dealing with single parenthood, divorce, sex and dating over forty, from a realistic and fresh perspective. Cybill Shepherd stars as Cybill Sheridan, a woman who had it all: two spiteful daughters, two clingy ex-husbands, an outrageous best friend, an unstable future and a house on an eroding LA hillside. But with humor and determination, Cybill braved each new challenge that came her way, while having the time of her life discovering that life after forty was anything but downhill. The Best of Cybill contains a total of 10 episodes.
