TO SUM UP
The "Baxter" is the guy you settle for when you can't be with the one you love. Tax accountant Elliott Sherman, for instance. Nice but safe, Elliott always finds himself on the losing end of a love triangle. But Elliot decides to take the plunge one more time when he meets his dream woman, beautiful magazine editor Caroline Swann — just before her long-lost high school sweetheart turns up out of the blue.

The Atlanta Journal-Constitution: C+
"While trying really hard to make Elliot a lovable loser, Showalter too often just renders him shrill and annoying."
