Description: Set in Rye, New York, Hometown opened with the reunion of the seven former college friends, that took place at the wedding of two of them, the longtime couple of Mary Newell and Ben Abbott. Amid all the nostalgia of radical times and the reminiscing of their youth, the group found their unwavering network of support was more important than ever, as they faced a more conservative, Reaganized America of the 1980s.
