Episode synopsis
To celebrate a big real estate sale, Ava surprises the ladies with a dream come true: four hard-to-get tickets to see Oprah Winfrey -- the woman they refer to as ""kind of like our God"" -- at a television taping in Chicago. Because it's their first time traveling together, problems arise and friendships and teamwork spirit get compromised. Matters turn worse when one of the priceless tickets goes missing and they're willing to do whatever it takes to get another one. But things start to look up when they have a chance encounter with Oprah's best friend, Gayle King. Back at the office, Sellers and Charlie, who don't understand why their officemates are so smitten with all things Oprah, learn firsthand about her effect on viewers.
About Hot Properties
Hot Properties is an ensemble ABC comedy featuring four women working together in a Manhattan real estate office. It was first aired on October 7, 2005. Often compared to Sex and the City and the CBS situation comedy Designing Women, this show features four single women professionals, each with distinct personalities that contribute in their failure to secure dates. The comparison to these shows led many critics to describe the show as unoriginal. The women share a passion for Oprah. On November 29, 2005, ABC announced that the show would not be extended more than 13 episodes, which is usually a sign of impending cancellation. The series finale aired on Friday, December 30, 2005.
