Here is your deep dive into the first season of the groundbreaking Netflix comedy-drama. Season one introduces us to Grace Hanson (Jane Fonda) and Frankie Bergstein (Lily Tomlin). Grace is a retired, hyper-controlled businesswoman who built a successful cosmetics line. She drinks scotch, wears starched white shirts, and prides herself on emotional stoicism. Frankie is a free-spirited, pot-smoking artist who teaches yoga, believes in crystals, and cries at the drop of a hat.

What follows is not a revenge fantasy. It is a survival manual. Unlike modern streaming shows that demand instant velocity, Grace and Frankie - Season 1 takes its time. The first few episodes are almost unbearably uncomfortable. Grace and Frankie are forced into a shared beach house in La Jolla (the former family vacation home), mostly because neither woman wants to give up the other’s asset during the divorce settlement.

is not about endings. It is about the terrifying, glorious chaos of a second act. Stream Grace and Frankie - Season 1 exclusively on Netflix.

But to label Grace and Frankie - Season 1 as merely a show about divorce would be to ignore its radical heart. Created by Marta Kauffman (co-creator of Friends ) and Howard J. Morris, this first season did something unprecedented for television: it placed two women over the age of 70 at the center of a coming-of-age story.
