CGiii Comment
Quirky, likeable, inoffensive and, most importantly, entertaining.
It's a shame some of the comic material just doesn't work but some of it most definitely does.
It suffers from the usual ailment in that it cannot sustain the energy throughout. It dips in the middle and struggles to re-surface but it does have some jolly moments.
Well worth a viewing.

The(ir) Blurb...
Teenage Goth couple Adam and Rhonda are club hopping when Adam spots a dancer he is immediately attracted to. Taking the dancer home, Adam is introduced to drugs by him, but their sexual escapade is interrupted by an embarrassing episode and the dancer leaves quickly. Years later Adam accidentally stabs his dog and brings him to a hospital where he is treated by a psychiatrist who once studied veterinary medicine. The doctor (Steve) and Adam start dating and fall in love. Rhonda, who has stayed Adam's close friend through the years, begins to date Steve's straight roommate at the same time. Months later Steve realizes that Adam was the Goth teenager with whom he had the embarrassing encounter, and breaks off the relationship, afraid that Steve will reject him when he finds out the truth.
