Because if there are Video Girls, Video Boys should also be possible...

In a human AU, character A who's suffering from heartbreak but is ultimately good at heart, stumbles into a strange video rental store and ends up taking home a video of the "ideal boy to comfort him."
Only when A tries playing the video, the boy on the video ends up coming to life right through his TV screen. Except that thanks to TV or VCR problems, the boy isn't at all like the ideal proclaimed on the cover and back of his video case (ex: instead of being the perfect gentleman, he's foul-mouthed and short-tempered; or instead of being serious and hardworking, he's goofy, clumsy, and terrible at work; etc). But he still persists in trying to help A with his love problems. And of course, he ends up unwittingly falling in love with A himself, something that isn't supposed to happen to video boys...
All pairings are welcome, although I'd especially love US/UK (I think the "'defective' video boy falling in love with the boy he's supposed to just help find love with another human" could actually work well both ways with them).
