"The feminist, feisty, females discuss everything going on in their lives, from sex and love to politics and religion, all in the confines of their Victorian Georgian office," a press release said. "Ex-con handyman and token male of the series, Anthony Bouvier, offers his help not only at the firm, but also offers his opinions on all of the ladies personal matters."

A revival of the show is in development at ABC.

No casting has been disclosed yet. Carter and Taylor died after the original series ended.
