    It mixes the standard elements into a breezy good time, and ends with a number that'll stick in your head all day.

    What makes it all work is the good time the Cassidys, especially David, are having in these roles. In the end it's contagious. Shakespeare, no, but clever enough to be good 'tween fun.

    Given the dark flavor of Shaun Cassidy's adult TV creations and his own experiences within the music machine, Ruby feels surprisingly ordinary and uninformed, put together out of scraps from the old sitcom drawer.

    I adore David Cassidy, and I don't like this show of his. Couldn't they photoshop some 70s pics of them together for the 'younger' photos? They both look so old in the 'old days' shots!… Expand
