Having taken 'any job as long as it pays' to support her dying mother's care, 30-something Gigi returns to Hollywood, keen to revive her acting career. But in a town that measures female age in dog years, she soon discovers the gap between Pretty Woman and Driving Miss Daisy is vanishingly small.
Aided and abetted by friends Stella and Livia, also circling the outskirts of showbiz, Gigi's comeback, both professionally and personally is an uphill struggle. Dating her own stalker, fending off 'C' movie producers and being action hero Rick Radcliff's 'plus one' is not what she had in mind.
The 'civilian' in the group, Roxy, has problems of her own - raising child prodigy, Sasha, as a single parent, since her now ex-husband, Paul, went off to find himself and discovered he's 'a lesbian, trapped in a man's body'.
G-Spot has some similarities with comedy/drama Cold Feet and Last Tango in Halifax with misunderstandings, missed opportunities and failed relationships littering the paths of the main characters. Shaving years off her age ends Stella's affair with a potential 'Mr. Right'; Gigi recovers from her addiction to the womanising Payne, only to be dumped by her long-distance lover.
Brigitte Bako is the wide-eyed yet resilient Gigi, Heather Hanson is Stella, veering between world-weariness and grim optimism, while Stephanie Moore's Livia self-medicates her disappointment with life and love.
Roxy (Kimberly Huie) and Paul (Sebastian Spence) are the bright spot in the romance stakes; strengthening family ties and adapting to their new situation. Although way too much of a challenge for their marriage guidance counselor, a couple they meet at a weekend retreat convince them if you love someone, obstacles can be overcome.
