Synopsis
A calculatedly quirky dramedy series in the tradition of Northern Exposure and Gilmore Girls, the weekly, 60-minute Three Moons Over Milford was set in the titular small Vermont town, "Home of the World-Famous Rest-O-Lounger." The series chronicled the reactions of the populace when a comet slammed into the moon, breaking the satellite into three pieces. Did this phenomenon signal the end of the world, or the beginning of a new one? Either way, the folks in Milford figured that time was running out quickly (just how quickly nobody could say), so they elected to "live for the moment," dropping diets and exercise regimens, shedding inhibitions, and indulging their every whims -- an epidemic described by one character as "tri-lunar fever." Elizabeth McGovern headed the cast as Laura Davis, a new arrival in Milford, whose husband, Carl, a CEO of the vast and powerful Syndek corporation, had mysteriously vanished just after the breakup of the moon -- suggesting that, somehow, Syndek had had something to do with the lunar disaster. Now Laura was saddled with the responsibility of raising her two children alone, said children being self-styled Wiccan and inadvertent firestarter Lydia (Teresa Celentano) and her computer-whiz son, Alex (Sam Murphy). Other principals included Milford's leading citizen, Michelle Graybar (Nora Dunn), who evidently had the lowdown on everyone in town and whose real-estate business was booming despite the imminent Apocalypse; attorney Mack McIntyre (Rob Boltin), the town's resident general handyman, most eligible bachelor, and sage philosopher, and Claire Ling (Samantha Leigh Quan), a "mystery woman" with whom the much-younger Alex was having an affair. Originally slated to debut in late 2005, Three Moons Over Milford did not peek out over the horizon until August 6, 2006, running for eight extremely eccentric episodes on cable's ABC Family network.
