Shelley’s PhD and gift of gab could have bought him fame and fortune, but his refusal to compromise his ideals has left him with a dry sense of humor, an unhealthy bank balance, and a reputation as something of an eccentric.
Shelley’s love, Fran, feels that if Shelley could just stick with a job it would solve all of their problems. This true to life comedy series pulls no punches in reflecting the current economic climate.
