Babes

   Babes was an American sitcom series that aired on Fox from September 13, 1990, to May 19, 1991, created by Gail Parent and Tracey Jackson and executive produced
   by Dolly Parton and Sandy Gallin's Sandollar Productions for 20th Century Fox Television. The series followed a trio of obese sisters who had other things on their mind
   besides their weight; like work, relationships, popularity, and starting a family. The ladies shared a small one-bedroom apartment in New York City, which added to the
   comic friction. The Gilbert sisters included Darlene (Susan Peretz), the eldest, who was a dog groomer and recently divorced; Charlene (Wendie Jo Sperber), the middle
   sister, who was a makeup artist for a commercial photographer and was the most active one out of the three; and Marlene (Lesley Boone), the youngest sister, a former
   toll collector and later commercial and soap opera actress, who was seen as a dreamer with a naive, yet trusting, personality. Also in the cast was Charlene's boyfriend, Ronnie Underwood, a restaurant owner. He disappeared at mid-season, as a result putting all three sisters on the dating market. At that time, the girls' landlady, Florence Newman, became
a regular. All three also had physical elements in their resume and it was evidenced in most of the episodes whenever something would tick off the sisters. Notable examples were: Charlene
getting blown up in a helium dress, Darlene breaking a hockey stick while attending a New York Rangers game that got her on probation and head-butting Ronnie over who was going to
spend the night at the apartment, Marlene waking the sisters up with potato chips after they didn't hear her come in, and the sisters ganging up on a mime after he mocked them.
