Then Came You

Then Came You is a May-December comedy with a twist.

Based on the experiences of one of its creators, "Then Came You" is a charming and sexy half-hour comedy series about a newly divorced woman whose eyes become opened to a whole new universe of possibilities when she falls in love with a younger man.

Following her own divorce, writer Betsy Thomas ("My So-Called Life"), moved into L.A.'s Chateau Marmont Hotel and began a "May-December" romance with a younger room-service waiter.

Set in Chicago, Billie (Susan Floyd) and Aidan (Thomas Newton) are the generationally impaired duo who find themselves in what seems to outsiders to be an impossible love affair. Their paths cross when Billie, a 33-year-old book editor, leaves her predictable lawyer husband, Lewis (Colin Ferguson), and moves into a hotel to quietly and deliberately take stock of her life. But when Aidan, a handsome and carefree 22-year-old room-service waiter, walks into her room -- and her life -- Billie quickly finds herself thrown into a steamy and "forbidden" affair.

Her ex-husband is shocked; her best friend, Cheryl (Miriam Shor), is dubious; and even Billie herself is nervous. In fact, the only one on board is Aidan's buddy, Ed (Desmond Askew), who's more than happy to seize the opportunity to live -- if only vicariously -- the "older woman/younger man" fantasy he harbors. Yet despite the obvious obstacles -- as well as some they can't even imagine -- they're ready to throw caution to the wind and embrace this new relationship and all its complexities. And with Aidan at her side, Billie will face the disapproving looks of strangers, friends and family alike as she explores the next part of her life with a man too young to have ever bought his music on vinyl.

Susan Floyd stars as Billie, Thomas Newton as Aidan, Miriam Shor as Cheryl, Desmond Askew as Ed and Colin Ferguson as Lewis.
