How To Be A Gentleman, inspired by the book of the same name, is a comedy about the unlikely friendship between a traditional, refined writer and an unrefined personal trainer. Andrew Carlson (David Hornsby) is an etiquette columnist whose devotion to ideals from a more civilized time has lead to a life detached from modern society. When Andrew's editor, Jerry (David Foley), tells him to put a modern, sexy twist on his column or be fired, he hires Bert Lansing (Kevin Dillon), a reformed 'bad boy' from Andrew's past, as a life coach in the hopes of learning to be less 'gentle man' and more 'real man.'
