PegO' MyHeart, based on J. Hartley Manners's breezy 1912 class comedy of the same name that shot Laurette Taylor to stardom, is not a bad show.
Kathleen Early is bright and spunky as Peg, Melissa Hart is a hoot as the matriarch of the Chichester family, James A. Stephens brings a lovable stuffiness to the butler Jarvis, while J. Kennedy and Rita Harvey bring subdued, passionate, and very English appropriateness to Peg's paramour Jerry and her staunch protestor of a cousin.
Peg doesn't need to sing a song called "Home" to tell us she's homesick, the trepidation she and Jerry feel about romance is evident in the dialogue and subtext without needing to be set to music (and one of the show's most banal lyrics), and so on.
