The series follows five middle-aged best friends John, Tom, Mike, Bill and Greg from college as they explore the world of dating, careers and friendship in a present-day society. John, the owner of a sandwich shop (A's & J's), struggles to make ends meet after an incident got him kicked out of college. He relies on his friends for everything and lives with his mother, Alice who constantly tolerates him. She co-owns the business with her son. Tom, a successful doctor, struggles to uphold his name when an incident from his past with one of his co-workers puts his career in jeopardy. Mike, who works as a lawyer, wants to settle down but struggles to put his womanizing ways to rest. His on-and-off girlfriend Pamela finds it hard to believe. Bill, who is an architect, is revisited by his ex, Regina who is recently engaged to one of his good friends from college so his mission is to win back her heart, due to infidelity which ended their relationship. Bill works hard to prove to her that he's a changed man and Greg, Tom's college roommate who is also a doctor, moves to Atlanta to rebuild his life after going through a rough divorce and immediately builds a relationship with the guys while Tom is away dealing with a family emergency and works with Tom at the hospital. Greg meets Darla, an officer who lives down the hall from him and Tom and is instantly attracted to her. The five men come together to get away from their everyday lives.
