 We spend a week in the L.A. offices where the daytime TV show "The Love Judge" is written and produced. Jo, the show s large and loud producer, announces she is leaving the show in two weeks. Paula (driven and on Prozac) and Mark (gay and moody) compete for Jo s job. Mark, coming onto the first anniversary of the death from AIDS of the love of his life, is attracted to Bill, who claims to be straight. Meanwhile, Jeremy, a close friend of Mark s, is putting the moves on Bill. Leslie, Jo s overworked assistant, tells Mark she wants to be a writer (she even has a script written). How these relationships that combine work and friendship play out is the movie s subject.
