Skip it. This 1992 rom-com feels like a relic with a paper-thin plot—a woman fakes credentials to become a radio advice guru, gets caught, falls for the reporter who catches her. It's the kind of forgettable formula that was already tired then, and Dolly Parton's charm alone can't carry a script this creaky.

Plot

Honest and straightforward small-town Shirlee Kenyon chucks her boyfriend and heads for Chicago. Accidentally having to host a radio problem phone-in show, it is clear she is a natural and is hired on the spot. But the station insists she call herself Doctor, and as her popularity grows a local reporter starts digging for the truth. Problem is, the more he is around her the more he fancies her.
