Tina and Michelle

Starring Jennifer Coolidge and Kristin Cavallari as a mother-daughter duo living in their Santa Barbara condo in California. Jennifer Coolidge plays Tina Sherwood, a 40-something ex-model who is always in search of her youth. Kristin Cavallari plays Michelle Sherwood, a 21-year-old cute cocktail waitress who childhood took second to taking care of her self-absorbed, secretly-unstable mother. Tina worked as an once-famous teen model who's career quickly fizzled away after Tina had gotten pregnant with her daughter (Michelle), who was fathered by her photographer/agent--who later found out he was a father then dropped Tina as a client then moved away. Tina's relationship with her parents was started to become rocky and then turned nonexistent, after they disowned her after being persistent about becoming a teen model-then had gotten knocked up and becoming a single mom. With no one around to support her, Tina decided to work her "youthful charm" to snag a rich, older businessman-who later married her. Then after 12 years of marriage, also known as neglection and betrayal, Tina and her now ex-husband, Greg Murphy (Tom Selleck) get divorced. Then Tina finds a job as a talent scout for a modeling agency in Santa Barbara, where she continues to work now with co-worker and longtime best friend, Veronica Vassey (Kirstie Alley)-a fellow former teen model. Michelle has grown up to be a beautiful, confident, and independent young woman who works a popular cocktail bar downtown, where Michelle works as a cocktail waitress, along with her three diverse friends and co-workers: the single mother, Heather Johnson (Sara Rue), the sassy and quick-witted, Nikki Van Lanen (Niecy Nash), and the petite fashionista, Cassie Haven (Allison Munn).
