How can you use “syd” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:

In short, Amy and Syd are TV populists, not TV anti-feminists.
But the twist is that Syd and Amy's problems don't have much to do with their being female.
The divorcing Amy is marginally more believable as a woman whose life has taken a scary new turn than the unflappable single Syd ever was--Amy gets flustered; she doesn't know what to wear; her clothes don't seem designed to show off an improbably sculpted body, as Syd's do; she has no pat reasons for having left her husband; her mom, played by Tyne Daly, is pitch-perfect as the smart, confident older woman who quashes her daughter (she's a more compelling character than Syd's father, a wan veterinarian who can do no wrong); and Amy's own daughter--well, Amy's daughter is unbearable, a stereotypical know-it-all TV tyke.
(There are secondary reasons: Syd wants to take care of her widowed father, Amy wants to get away from life with her ex-husband.)
Compounding the emotional exploitation, Syd's dad (Mike Farrell) is a veterinarian, so every time the show's tear-jerk quotient threatens to dip below critical mass, viewers are confronted by sick, injured, and dying puppies.
