Remember that Simpsons episode where Bart embodied the fabled Boy Who Cried Wolf? He lied and lied and lied and lied about the reasons he couldn't take tests and finish homework, blaming a wolf for his problems. When he is actually attacked by a wolf, no one believes his injuries are real.
That's the general idea behind Full of It. Ryan Pinkston (Punk'd) stars as a 17-year-old who fabricates increasingly intricate tales in order to fit in with the kids at his new school. Normally, such behavior leads the liar to get caught. It's very difficult, after all, to consistently remember stories if there are dozens of them out there. In Full of It, however, things happen a little differently.
Our young liar's stories begin coming true, and he is viewed as the big stud on campus. While this might seem to be ideal, in actuality, he is forced to face problems that he never even thought could be an issue.
Along with Pinkston, Full of It features such performers as Craig Kilborn and the lovely Teri Polo. It's a light comedy that might be able to strike a chord with teens. (Kim Hollis/BOP)
