Rochez & Co. pushes the sitcom envelope for the MTV generation as it explores the bawdy, foul-mouthed antics of a group of wealthy dowagers who run The Sisterhood of Charity as their private social club and the equally zany kitchen staff who serve them. The two rotund chefs who "run" the place and their staff of illegals barely manages to hold things together in the kitchen while the ladies cope with diarrhea, narcolepsy, alcoholism and even death as they feud and jockey for control of the Sisterhood. This is a new-generation, edgy comedy that smacks of real life and pulls no punches. At first coming across as a live-action cartoon filled with caricatures, the show gradually opens up the humanity and trials of the ladies and their staff, who thus endear themselves to the viewer while they engage in outrageous, yet all-too-human behavior. Rochez & Co. is a cross between Golden Girls and Fawlty Towers with a slight touch of Cheers and the zaniness of Soap.
