A non-saccharine celebration of friendship, love and Valentine's Day starring the hilarious Jim Panzee Jim Panzee is very grumpy about Valentine's Day until his buddy Norman shows him that this celebration is for everyone. When Jim hears Oxpecker cooing over her doting boyfriend on Valentine's Day, he has just one thought- Gross. But Jim finds out that not everything about Valentine's Day is hearts and kisses.
