This clever comedy transports the plot of the classic Cyrano de Bergerac to a present-day TV station where Cyrano is the station manager. He would love to be Roxanne’s co-anchor on the news show... if only he didn’t have such an enormous, bulbous honker! Meanwhile, scheming station owner Mr. Gauche has designs to sink their ratings so he can collect insurance on the failed business. He arranges for Chris, the handsome but dumb-as-a-brick mail guy, to be Roxanne’s new co-anchor. To save the station’s ratings, Cyrano ends up writing the news stories for Chris, who gets all the credit for the poet’s wit and wisdom. That is, until he finds himself in a bind and must lip-synch to Cyrano’s smooth and savvy voice on the air (with as much synchronization as a bad Kung-Fu flick)! Flanked by other zany characters such as Raymond, the bongo-toting beatnik host of a cooking show; Flip Flagstone, the weatherman who flips a coin to predict the weather for the day; and Spice Spencer, the sportscaster who always has a sporty metaphor; there’s never a dull moment. When ratings actually spike and everyone’s cover is blown, Cyrano finally gets the respect he deserves... as the new co-anchor with a nose for the news!
