Post-college life hasn't been an easy transition for 20-something Jason Strider and his friends, whose misadventures with sex, love and career aspirations form the plot of this series, which is based on David J. Rosen's novel of the same name. Jason values hanging with his buddies -- best pal Tina, and college sweethearts Eric and Stacey -- going to bars in and around Brooklyn, N.Y., and chasing women above chasing his dream of becoming a music journalist. Things change, however, on a one-night stand when his partner steals his heart -- and his pants -- and Jason begins a quest to find both the girl and his beloved jeans.
