The result is an adorable and faithful update that spoofs politics, television and Boston while making underlying points about education, class conflict and being oneself.

A pleasant enough diversion for a few light-hearted hours, and with a little bit of luck, will help point Hallmark back toward sending the very best.

This is a modern day retellingof George Bernard Shaw's Pygmalion that changes the genders of the main characters. It took me way too long to figure that out. It is pretty cute and Julia Stiles is delightful.

I adore Julia Stiles, and this was a cute story, but the actor playing in the lead role was very annoying.
