Summary
Twenty-something half-sisters Mona and Dee Dee had only one thing in common -- their father.  Growing up separately, these two virtual strangers suddenly became neighbors in the same San Francisco apartment building and experience the challenges of sisterhood for the first time.  Now that they have grown closer, they realize that despite their different upbringings they share more similarities than they thought.

Mona, a record-company executive, was raised by her single mother Phyllis to be an independent woman who does things in her own free-spirited and sometimes sardonic style.  By contrast, younger sister Dee Dee grew up privileged in a two-parent home, attends law school, but still searches for her own identity out of the shadow of her overbearing mother, Big Dee Dee.

The two half-sisters have learned to lean on each other for support when it comes to relationships, career choices and how to handle their mothers.  Meanwhile, Mona and her best friend and colleague Spencer realized that they are more than just friends when they embraced in a passionate kiss last season.  At work, Mona's assistant Adam Benet also continues to spice things up at the record company with his humorous gossip.

Last season, HALF & HALF received its first NAACP Image Award nomination for Outstanding Comedy Series.  Both Valarie Pettiford and Telma Hopkins earned nominations for Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Comedy Series, while Chico Benymon secured his first nomination for Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Comedy Series.
