Jessie Kent (Elizabeth McGovern) is an audiobook producer engaged to an architect, Elliott Borden (Peter Krause).
Craig Schaeffer (Hank Azaria) – a producer at Gopher Records, a recording studio in Minneapolis – is engaged to Melanie (Jane Sibbett), a good-hearted but dull psychologist who devotes more time to her charity work with the dying than she does to him.
A chance meeting at the Big Bass Chinese restaurant brings Jessie and Craig together, and it’s love at first sight. Craig and Jessie find they have much in common and want to be with each other. They carry on a secret romance, hoping to build the courage to break off their respective relationships.
Cal (Jim Turner) was Craig’s semi-competent audio engineer for whom every day was a bad hair day, while Eileen (Debra Jo Rupp) was a voice actor who provided the mechanical-sounding voice heard in airports (“White zone is for unloading only”) and directory assistance.
The short-lived CBS series (which followed Murphy Brown on Monday evening’s schedule) really didn’t have a chance to establish a viewing audience.
