Love Hurts

1992 - 1994 NR 50m 7.4

Two forty-somethings with differing outlooks on life fall in love.

When Tessa Piggott goes through a messier breakup than most (her married ex-lover and ex-boss left her for a younger mistress), she looks for a new job. Deciding to leave the rat-race, she finds herself a position in a charitable organization with an old college chum, Diane Warburg (who's also a rabbi). Tessa finds a new boyfriend in Frank Carver, a roguish entrepreneur who's learning how to live with his college-age daughter. The course of Tessa and Frank's romance and the stories of their friends and families make up the episode plots.
