Tom Hydale is a twenty something, live at home fellow who falls for unlucky at love Ellen in a genuinely sweet tempered comedy that makes us root for these underdogs, even as their budding romance is menaced by Ellen's needy roommate Hermione and Tom's eccentric parents Ashley and Lesley. Johnny Sweet, who plays Tom, gives his character a vulnerability that is most appealing. He's constantly being hectored by his less than supportive parents. The parents are played very broadly, to the point that their scenes are almost painful to watch. It's one weak element in an otherwise charming comedy
