My Boys
I meant to give you more warning than this, but I kept forgetting: the TBS show "My Boys" starts its second season this Monday at 10pm, with a recap marathon of the entire first season this Sunday at 10am. It's very enjoyable in a guilty-pleasure-ish way, but I'm not actually guilty about it. It's about a late-twenties tomboy sports reporter and her circle of friends, who are all men (except for her one girly-girl confidant). It's a little bit of a gimmick, and each show has voiceover narration tying the plot into a sports metaphor (which I'm hoping they will drop for the second season), but mainly it's just a good solid sitcom with believable characters who say funny things. (No studio audience or laugh track, which I think is called a "single-camera" in the biz.) Jim Gaffigan is the only marginally recognizable face, but all the actors have quite good comedic timing and they banter together well. Bonus points for multi-episode arcs without being a serial, and plenty of good pop culture references, my favorite being (of course) the board game decathlon.
