This romantic comedy-drama from Warner Brothers revolves around the experiences of Jacqueline Barrett (Amanda Peet) – called “Jack” by her friends – and David Jillefsky (Ivan Sergei) – called “Jill” by his friends.
Viewers first meet Jack as she is about to be married, but she walks out of the service after she finds out her husband-to-be slept with her maid of honour (amongst others). She immediately leaves town and heads for New York City, where she feels she can begin a new life.
Jill – an aspiring toy designer – has a girlfriend (Elisa) and is contemplating moving in with her – until he meets Jack, who has moved into an apartment in his building with flatmate Audrey (Jaime Pressly), who spends much of her time waiting outside theatres in cattle calls.
Jack also meets Elisa when they become co-workers at a TV station and the two become friends.
In later episodes, Jack becomes partners with fun-loving, woman-chasing Mikey Russo (Simon Rex) in running a bar.
Voiceovers were used to convey the problems Jack and Jill encountered as they began to date and tried to make their relationship work.
