US cable and satellite channel TV Land announced that it has ordered the pilot for an adaptation of the 1996 cult comedy earlier this week. The show will follow the same premise as the cult classic but will be set in present-day San Francisco, reports Entertainment Weekly.

The original movie follows three unhappily-divorced women, played by Diane Keaton, Goldie Hawn and Bette Middler, who reconnect after the death of a high school friend, and decide to seek revenge on their ex-husbands who left them for younger women.

Here's the trailer, if you're feeling nostalgic:
