Anyhoos, after Numb3rs and One Tree Hill, we thought it would take a long while before we see Dave Krumholtz and Sophia Bush in action again--TV or movies. Well, we need not wait any longer! From the creators of Will and Grace, Max Mutchnick and David Kohan, comes Partners. It's a new CBS sitcom about lifelong pals, Joe and Louis. Joe, played by David Krumholtz, and Louis, portrayed by Michael Urie (Ugly Betty), are partners in their architecture firm in New York. They have been friends for so many years and has been aspiring to be architects ever since their childhood days.
Joe, is a very critical man, who thinks too much. Lately, he has been considering breaking up with his girlfriend, Ali (Sophia Bush) all because she says she wants to get married and have kids, after getting drunk the night before. Joe is way into his job, that he's not yet ready for that kind of commitment, so he wants to leave her. He comes to talk to her after work to break up with her, but didn't when she admitted that the only reason why she said that is because she's been so stressed out. Instead of breaking up with her, he ended up proposing to her. Ali says yes.
Unlike Joe, Louis is far too impulsive. He always goes with his gut, that he had a face of Clay Aiken tattooed on his butt. Louis has a boyfriend named Wyatt (Brandon Routh). Although he is just a nurse, Louis would always tell people he's a Jewish doctor because he's embarrassed to tell people of his job. Anyhoos, Louis also talks a lot... A LOT lot. Thinking that Joe would break up with Ali that night, he comforts Ali the next day at yoga class, and blurts out things he isn't suppose to tell her. He comes to work to talk to Joe about it, when Ali calls him to tell what Louis just said. She also called in to tell him the engagement is off. Joe becomes furious of what Louis had done and breaks up with Louis.
Joe sees, by chance, Wyatt at the coffee shop and asks him about the break up. Joe tells him that he proposed, and then she called it off because of what Louis did. Wyatt defends Louis to Joe, telling him that even though he does those things, Louis has a big heart. And amidst all the things that he do, Wyatt is able to look past it because of it. From the looks of it, although Wyatt seems pretty much "blonde" inside, dude makes sense.
Louis comes to Ali to apologize and tells Ali that Joe broke his friendship with him. He tries to make up to Joe by convincing Ali to get back with him. And he proposes for Joe again. She says she'll think about it. Louis comes back to the office to clean up, when he comes in to see Joe in his office. Ali calls Joe and tells him what he did and became friends with Louis once again.
Partners airs on CBS on Mondays 830/730c, right after How I Met Your Mother, and simulcasts in Canada via Citytv.
