Factual error: A football game is shown playing on TV at one point. Impossible as the movie is taking place in spring - football games, both college and the NFL, are played in the fall/winter.

9.3/10. A pretty funny John Candy/ Mariel Hemingway movie. It does an absolutely marvelous job of mocking soap operas, one of the worst ideas ever for TV and turns them on their heels. I found it funny, well paced, good chemistry between Candy and Hemingway especially, never bored. Give it a watch, you might like it.
Suggested correction: This is during Jack's delirious dream and he wrote it that way to distract Carter who was waiting for the cable repair man. It wasn't something that was meant to be happening in real life.
Jack Gable: What are you doing here? I sent you to Cleveland.
Jack Gates: I should kill you for that alone.
Trivia: The second movie Mariel Hemingway and Margot Kidder worked together on. The other was Superman 4:The Quest For Peace (1987).
