if you like modern day soap opera and you should like this critic favorite . it simply an ensemble of 20 ish young people who hang out at the diner and give u or so the critic think witty and profound statement . to me and most of them just sound obnoxious and profane ( blasphemous ( especially in steve guttenberg character ) and unappealing . it do not do much for me represent kind of like another big chill but with a different cast . that be the only interesting aspect for me and see a young kevin bacon and daniel stern and ellen barkin and among others . i saw this on tape in the 90 instead of when it come out in the early 80 . this be probably too talky for many people today and and they aren not miss much . it overrate .
