Maggie Briggs
This short-lived series was co-created by Pleshette and aired on CBS from March 4, 1984, to April 15, 1984.
Maggie Briggs (Suzanne Pleshette) worked for the financially troubled New York Examiner, and in order to try to turn around their finances, the paper wanted a new look. They figured adding a new feature called Modern Living would just be what they needed. They, of course, wanted Maggie to write the column, but she was used to writing the hard-hitting human interest stories and wasn't the least bit pleased about having to write fluff about puppy dogs and nuns.
John Getz played Geoff Bennett, her editor who was a handsome playboy, a fact that Maggie tried to ignore. Her mentor at the paper was Walter Holden (Kenneth McMillian) and her best friend was Connie (Shera Danese).
