Storyline

Skyler Dayton is tired of her non-stop partying lifestyle and bad choices in boyfriends. Wanting a major life change, she wanders into "The Stacks," a small family-run bookstore owned by Gavin Dewitt and his brother, Stuart. Divorced and unlucky in love himself, Gavin's inclined to regard Skyler as an embodiment of the vacuous, image-obsessed culture he has come to abhor. Stuart, however, is dazzled by Skyler's beauty and, much to Gavin's horror, offers her a job at their store, which she happily accepts as the first step in her quest for a steadier lifestyle. Unhappy that she's going to be minding the till next to such an intimidating bombshell is the store's sole other employee, Katrina, who doles out doses of realism and cynicism. Rounding out the characters is the store's one steady customer, Harold March a preeminent but retired rocket scientist.

Trivia

Tom Everett Scott was originally cast as Gavin, and even filmed the pilot episode. The producers, however, decided that Scott played the character a little too laid back, and not neurotic enough. So the part was recast with Elon Gold, and the pilot was filmed again with only a couple weeks before the show was supposed to debut.

User Reviews

better than expected

if you have ever seen pam anderson act or seen "VIP", you probably didn't expect much, however there's not a whole lot of comedy shows left since the onslaught of reality shows, so i decided to watch this show and see if it was any good. i was pleasantly surprised. i found it charming, funny and witty.

pamela plays a party girl at a crossroads in her life, takes a left turn and ends up at a quaint bookstore run by two brothers. her character's insight into life ends up superseding her supposed ditziness, usually playing foil to the the male characters straight-laced, narrow vision and lack of experience.

some may feel the laugh-track overbearing, but that's like saying her boobs get in the way of the humor. it just doesn't. finally, the writing really deserves some applause. with fresh, sharp writing, a popular lead and a solid cast, this show should do well. i hope both the audience and the network gives this show a chance
