Flannel Pajamas

On a rainy April night, two 30-something New Yorkers meet for a blind date at a local diner. It's a magical evening with that so-elusive combination of great chemistry and instant connection. Stuart (Justin Kirk) is a study in contrasts -- seemingly confident, with a high-powered Broadway job that makes full use of his fast-talking smarts, yet clearly lonely and desperately eager for love. Younger and still finding her way, Nicole (Julianne Nicholson) is naturally more reticent, coping with city life far from her large and eccentric Montana family.

As Stuart and Nicole progress from love to marriage to discussions about starting a family, their relationship faces the challenges of critical friends, emotionally demanding relatives, time-consuming careers, different religions and the stresses caused by the endless negotiations all couples wage daily.
