I have been a fan of Barbara Eden's for many years. I do not remember seeing this film when it originally aired on TV, but I thought since I love Ms. Eden that I would take a chance and buy it.

It is very cute and entertaining. Barbara Eden truly shines, as does John Forsythe (his performance reminds me a lot of Ronald Reagan). The two have pretty good chemistry. Conchata Ferrell also stars in the film as Barbara Eden's secretary/best friend.

The movie is about a public servant (Eden) who decides to run for mayor after an aging movie star (Forsythe) throws his hat into the ring. The two soon find themsevles not just competing for votes, but also falling in love.

It is a very cute film, and I definitely recommend it. What a bargain at that price too!

This movie had a few 'slow' times, but overall it was a pretty good storyline.
A bit unbelievable, but cute nonetheless.

Barbara Eden stars in Opposites Attract a made for TV Movie romantic comedy story about a woman who works for the mayor and when the mayor leaves office she runs for Mayor opposite a Ronald Reagan Clint Eastwood kind of actor played by John Forsythe.Originally during filming of the movie for TV the film was going to be called Running Mates though the name of the film was changed before it premiered on TV.When it was shown on NBCTV October 17,1990 it was called Opposites Attract and it is a good comedy with Barbara Eden starring.It was kind of a Reunion for Barbara Eden since her Harper Valley co star Rod McCary co stars in Opposites Attract in a small role.Charles Levin who played Elliot in Alice and was in the pilot episode of The Golden Girls has a role in Opposites Attract.If you are a Barbara Eden Fan you would enjoy this DVD.
