This is a made-for-TV movie with all the earmarks of Hallmark. It is not cheesy, just low budget with actors that cross over between television and movies. Who can forget Martin Landau in [link=tt0072564]Space: 1999[/link]?

You know the story before it starts. Time loop stories have been presented long before this and many after. However, if you missed this one, you have missed a rather good presentation with a time loop story that doesn’t try to be too cutesy or too heavy.
Slob and sluff off Barry Thomas (Jonathan Silverman), finds himself the victim of time loop technology that has gone awry. At first, he finds this quite annoying. Soon, he realizes he has a second chance to save the life of the one that he loves from afar, Lisa Fredericks (Helen Slater).
The film is noticeably short; so, will he find time to grow a social consciousness, get close to the girl, find and fix the problem, and so forth? Or is he destined to repeat his slovenly ways over the same day forever and ever and ever?
