Cupid (TV series)


 

Cupid is a 1998-99 American dramedy series created by Rob Thomas about a Chicago psychologist and one of her most challenging patients: a man who believes he is the titular god of love, banished to earth until he can match up 100 couples. The show was produced by Columbia TriStar Television and Mandalay Productions, and aired on ABC. It was filmed on location in the Windy City, due to its star (Piven)'s love for the city.

Notes and Trivia

  • ?The Children?s Hour,? the last episode broadcast before the show?s cancellation in the U.S., aired shortly before Valentine?s Day 1999; it features Trevor's ruminations on why the holiday should instead be "Cupid's Day."
  • In a Dec. 24, 2004, Entertainment Weekly article, creator Rob Thomas mentions that the show would have ended with Trevor and Claire becoming Trevor's 100th match — and without revealing whether Trevor really was Cupid.
  • Series stars Paula Marshall and Jeffrey D. Sams both have recurring roles on Rob Thomas's current series Veronica Mars. Thomas has stated that, if the opportunity arose, he would write an episode featuring both of their characters, as well as their Cupid co-star Jeremy Piven.
