Their boring lives are suddenly rejuvenated when rapper Lil Stinker samples their 20-year-old hit in his new song, and the group gets to sing backing vocals for the rapper on The Tonight Show. Bored with their lives and excited by the chance to do something fruitful with their musical careers, the four decide to regroup and start the band again. The fifth member of the group, Ashley died in 2004, and it is on the bench they dedicated to her that they reunite again.

And that is just the beginning. Soon the four ladies discover that it is easier said than done to restart a once-hit band, especially in their 40s. But they persevere in their efforts, juggling life, work, marriage, love, and children to give time to another equally important aspect of their lives. The series is wonderfully narrated with fun and heartwarming instances that make us remember the value of what we have in our lives without being preachy.

The third season will follow up on previous cliffhangers and might be the most personal one yet for the four musical ladies. With Dawn pregnant, and the band aspiring to go on their own tour, a humongous task after losing out on a shot at opening for Collab on tour. But good intentions, dedication, and talent can go a long way, especially if four women are intent on their goal.
