The 5 Mrs. Buchanans (1994-1995)







A one season-wonder from The Golden Girls (1985-1992) executive producers Marc Cherry and Jamie Wooten, The 5 Mrs. Buchanans was an entertaining comedy about four very different sisters-in-law finding common ground in their despise of an overbearing mother-in-law. Despite strong acting and decent writing, it's bum Saturday night timeslot was it's ultimate demise.

I found this by accident checking out The Myers house from Halloween (1978) across the street.  It was an actual antique store...

In the pilot episode, the number 4349 is seen on the set of Alex's porch.  I took a guess that it was the house number in real life and it turned out it was!
