Over the Top (1997)
After being fired from the soap opera Days to Remember, down on his luck, eccentric, self-centered actor Simon Ferguson moves into Manhattan's Metropolitan Hotel, which is run by ex-wife Hadley Martin, whom he was married to 20 years prior... for twelve days. Despite her initial exasperation with her ex, Hadley again succumbs to the "Ferguson charm", as do all of those around her. Simon reluctantly plays role model to Hadley's children from a different marriage: precocious 7 1⁄2-year-old Daniel and angst-ridden teen Gwen. The hotel's psychotic Greek chef, Yorgo Galfanikos, also looks up to Simon, having been a fan of his soap opera and films. Also seen are Rose, the hotel's assistant manager, Robert McSwain, the hotel's main investor, Tommy Sutton, a popular jock Gwen fawns over, and Jesse, a geek who is smitten with Gwen.

Wild Cards
Wild Cards follows the unlikely duo of a gruff, sardonic cop and a spirited, clever con woman. Ellis, a demoted detective, has unfortunately spent the last year on the maritime unit, while Max has been living a transient life elaborately scamming everyone she meets. But when Max gets arrested and ends up helping Ellis solve a local crime, the two are offered the opportunity to redeem themselves, with Ellis going back to detective and Max staying out of jail. The catch? They have to work together, with each using their unique skills to solve crimes. For Ellis, that means hard-boiled shoe leather police work; for Max, it means accents, schemes and generally befriending everyone in sight, while driving Ellis absolutely nuts. Against the backdrop of beautiful Vancouver — with all its unique, charming, and even contradictory neighbourhoods and subcultures — the two will have to learn what it means to trust another person and maybe actually become partners.
