Lenny Barnes (Jason Gedrick, Iron Eagle, TV's Boomtown) gets divine intervention to educate him in the ways of love from a hip guardian angel, Bobby Fantana (Lewis Smith, Wyatt Earp, Southern Comfort, TV's The Man Who Fell to Earth), a former rebel-without-a-cause. Fantana helps to mold Lenny into the king of cool so Fantana can finally earn his entry into Heaven. After Bobby gives Lenny an extreme makeover, Lenny learns that being popular isn't all it's cracked up to be. A hilarious 80's gem with Jane Kaczmarek (TV's Malcolm in the Middle, D.O.A., All's Fair), Richard Mulligan (TV's Empty Nest, Soap, Scavenger Hunt) and Nancy Valen (TV's Baywatch, Final Embrace). Now see this comedy from a brand new HD master!
