Julia Louis-Dreyfus returns tonight to reprise her role as a divorced working mom who's attempting to juggle the daily stresses of motherhood and work, while maintaining a positive relationship with her ex-husband on The New Adventures of Old Christine. But before we dive into the fourth season, let's review what has happened so far.

In the 10-episode third season, Christine and Mr. Harris had a smooth going relationship until Christine's schedule became too hectic, which eventually led Mr. Harris to break up with her. Christine found a new friend in Mike, who tried to help her through her breakup and then tried entering the dating scene again but ended up dating a guy who was still in high school.  On the other hand, Richard and New Christine bought a house which turned out to be Christine's dream house, while Matthew and Barb slept together but split up at the end of the season.

In the fourth season opener of The New Adventures of Old Christine called “Decent Proposal,” Christine proposes marriage to Barb in attempt to save her from being deported to the Bahamas.  At the same time, Richard also attempts to pop the question to New Christine.

More comedy ensues as Marly shows up at school pregnant to save her marriage, while Lindsay shows up pregnant to save her friendship with Marly.

Aside from Julia Louis-Dreyfus, who plays lead star Christine Campbell, returning cast members for the fourth season include Trevor Gagnon as Ritchie, Clark Gregg as Richard, Alex Kapp Horner as Lindsay, Emily Rutherfurd as New Christine, Hamish Linklater as Matthew, Tricia O'Kelley as Marly, and W.nda Sykes as Barb.
