Almost Grown

  • 1988-1989
  • 1 season
  • Drama

In some ways, Norman and Suzie are a very typical American couple. After meeting in high school, dating all through school and college, getting married and having two children, they decided to get divorced. They still are very close, though, and have no qualms about co-operating with raising their kids. At least once in every episode, something would remind one of them of some event in their past, and viewers would be treated to a lengthy flashback of how the two met and fell in (and then out) of love.
