I was 20 years old when this was on TV. I think it was NBC. Lynda Carter was who I knew, but the other actresses were also good. It's about three diverse women, a Yale student, a stockbroker, and a housewife and mother of three in a small town. Since it was Playboy's movie, it makes everything glamorous and that everyone who reacts badly, like family and co-workers, as square. You might find it amusing.
