Imagine being midway through a first date that’s actually going really well, when the charming stranger sitting across from you confesses that he’s from the future, and has traveled back in time specifically to go out with you. Flattering? Maybe. Creepy? Oh hell yes.

That’s the premise of Ben Rock’s Future Boyfriend, which contains an outdated “Cubs winning the World Series” joke but is otherwise puts a funny scifi spin on the trials of modern romance. Look for a cameo from erstwhile 3rd Rock From the Sun alien French Stewart, who’s kind of the equivalent of Al in Quantum Leap here.
