One is shy and unpopular (Kate), and the other one is very cool and popular (Tully), but with a terrible home life. The show traces their beginning until middle age (it goes back and forth a lot, which I found a bit confusing). In the present, Tully is a successful (but lonely) talk show host. Kate has just been divorced and is raising her teen daughter, so she&#8217;s trying to get back into journalism. Although they&#8217;re good friends, they have their issues. However, they face what life throws at them, together.<\/p>\n<p>I think most women will be able to relate to this great female friendship and the struggles that women have. It&#8217;s entertaining yet realistic. There haven&#8217;t too many shows or movies that involve important female friendships. There are some fun and lighthearted moments as well as real drama.\u00a0 Check it out!<\/p>\n<p>MORE INFORMATION:<\/p>\n<p>Based on the New York Times Bestselling book, Firefly Lane is the sweeping story of two inseparable best friends and their enduring, complicated bond, spanning four tumultuous decades.<\/p>\n<p>Starring: Katherine Heigl and Sarah Chalke<\/p>\n<p>Showrunner and Executive Producer: Maggie Friedman<\/p>\n<p>Executive Producers: Stephanie Germain, Lee Rose, Katherine Heigl<\/p>\n<p>Best friends Tully and Kate support each other through good times and bad with an unbreakable bond that carries them from their teens to their 40s.<\/p>\n<p>PRINCIPAL CAST INFORMATION:<br \/>\n\u00b7 Ali Skovbye as Young Tully Hart<br \/>\n\u00b7 Beau Garrett as Cloud<br \/>\n\u00b7 Ben Lawson as Ryan<br \/>\n\u00b7 Brandon Jay McLaren as Travis<br \/>\n\u00b7 Brendan Taylor as Mutt<br \/>\n\u00b7 Jenna Rosenow as Kimber Watts<br \/>\n\u00b7 Jon Ecker as Max Brody<br \/>\n\u00b7 Katherine Heigl as Tully Hart<br \/>\n\u00b7 Patrick Sabongui as Chad Wiley<br \/>\n\u00b7 Roan Curtis as Young Kate Mularkey<br \/>\n\u00b7 Sarah Chalke as Kate Mularkey<br \/>\n\u00b7 Yael Yurman as Marah<br \/>\nCREW INFORMATION:<br \/>\n\u00b7 Katherine Heigl as EP<br \/>\n\u00b7 Kristin Hannah as BOOK\/CO-EP<br \/>\n\u00b7 Lee Rose as EP<br \/>\n\u00b7 Maggie Friedman as CRTR\/EP<br \/>\n\u00b7 Peter O&#8217;Fallon as EP\/DIR (Pilot)<br \/>\n\u00b7 Stephanie Germain as EP<\/p>\n<p>NETFLIX ORDERS NEW SCRIPTED SERIES &#8220;FIREFLY LANE,&#8221; BASED ON THE NOVEL BY KRISTIN HANNAH<\/p>\n<p>Logline: Kate and Tully meet as young girls and become inseparable best friends throughout thirty years of ups and downs, successes and failures, depression and disappointments.
