Synopsis

The series follows three couples in different stages of their relationships who lived in the same building in New York City. Newlyweds Allen and Cindy Campbell (Chris Young and Megan Gallivan) were occupants of the third floor; he attended Columbia University while she supported them as a waitress. On the second floor were the Meyers, Russell (Jay Thomas) and Elizabeth (Bess Armstrong). Elizabeth was a lawyer while Russell was a free-lance writer and househusband, particularly after the birth of their son, Max. Living on the ground floor were Nick and Olivia Williams (Ray Aranha and Barbara Montgomery), an older couple who were the building's owners (the building was in a gentrified area of Harlem, but often referred to by the street name "Central Park North"). Nick was an irascible traditionalist who constantly wondered why Russell didn't go out and get a "real" job and found Allen to be "too white" ("even for a white boy"), but was basically a good, decent man.

Married People was critically acclaimed but garnered low ratings, particularly after being continually pre-empted by ABC News providing coverage of the Persian Gulf War. The series was cancelled in March 1991, but rerun in August and September of that year just prior to the beginning of the 1991–92 schedule.
