Description: A sassy comedy show starring popular comedian Whoopi Goldberg as a hotel owner and an ex-diva Mavis Rae. Many years before, while Mavis was still very popular, she purchased a small hotel named Lamont, and now, almost 15 years later, she is enjoying her retirement and tries to make every day of her life even better. Even now when she is menopausal, Mavis is still herself... she's smoking and drinking. While leading the hotel herself, Mavis spends time with her employee named Nasim (Omid Djalili), a smart and funny Iraq handyman; her maid Jadwiga (recurring star Gordana Rashovich); her brother Courtney (Wren T. Brown) and Courtney's girlfriend Rita (Elizabeth Regen). Each and everyone of them has their own weekness, and Mavis is there to make fun of them. With an interesting and funny group like that, who would think of this as a boring show? Although it aired one full season, the show never made it into a second year, mostly because it's provocative language.
