Family Plan is a 2005 American television comedy film directed by David S. Cass Sr., written by Rick Gitelson, and starring Tori Spelling and Greg Germann.
But when Walcott invites himself over for dinner, she borrows her friend's house and daughter and hires actor Buck to play her husband for the evening.
The one-night "act" turns into a full-time gig when her boss decides to rent the house next door for the summer, forcing Charlie and Buck to stay together in the fake lifestyle she created.
Hal Erickson from All Movie Guide wrote: "Family Plan will probably seem a breath of fresh air to anyone who hasn't seen such movies as Picture Perfect and Good Neighbor Sam, or who can't remember the mid-1960s TV sitcom Occasional Wife.
It was also part of Hallmark Channel's third-highest day to date, and was ranked among the top 10 in the time period for household rating (#10).
