‘Firefly Lane’

-

A couple of former TV doctors — Katherine Heigl (“Grey’s Anatomy”) and Sarah Chalke (“Scrubs”) — team up in this heartfelt series about the power of female friendship. Based on the novel by Kristin Hannah, it follows Tully (Heigl) and Kate (Chalke), who meet as girls in the 1970s and become lifelong besties, despite possessing very different personalit­ies. With a narrative that bounces back and forth in time, the story spans three decades, chroniclin­g all their ups and downs, including a love triangle that strains their relationsh­ip. It all makes for some soapy, sweet and sexy fun. (Available Feb. 3, Netflix)
