The fourth and final seven-episode season of the British sitcom Butterflies was initially telecast from September 7 through October 19, 1983. Wealthy businessman Leonard is "Back From New York" in the opening, but will this mean that he and bored housewife Ria (Wendy Craig) will finally consummate their clandestine but heretofore chaste relationship? The title character in the next episode, "Amanda," is an old and dear friend of Ria's husband Ben (Geoffrey Palmer), whose presence makes Ria wonder anew if it would be worth it to chuck Ben in favor of Leonard. Next up, Ben and Ria find that someone -- perhaps their sons Russell (Andrew Hall) and Adam (Nicholas Parkhurst) -- has left a cache of pot in their home during their absence. "Cleaning Windows" represents the latest business enterprise for Adam and Russell. In "Calling," Russell's girlfriend announces that she wants to keep her baby -- but not Russell! "Breaking Up" finds Ria finally calling it quits with Leonard. But in the season closer, "Loose Ends," Ria still hasn't chosen between dashing Leonard and dull old Ben. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
