Premise

The series focuses on the development of four teenage girls who live and attend high school in Chicago. In the show, the girls' divergent talents, perspectives, and family experiences become the platform for illustrating alternative approaches to understanding and solving problems. It was the first TNBC series shot on videotape that did not have the use of laugh track.
