One of the tell-tale signs that you have found yourself in the pit of summer is the endless stream of reruns and brainless shows that can be found on TV. Well, don’t despair gentle audience for I have discovered an oasis of entertainment within the blighted landscape of summer TV. If you have not discovered the light and funny “My Boys” on TBS well then, let me introduce you. This comedy is based on a 30-something young woman named PJ, who is a sports-journalist writing about baseball in Chicago. PJ is a younger, cooler version of myself (or at least I like to think so). She is surrounded by her poker-playing guy friends and brother (played by the crazy-funny Jim Gaffigan) and they seem to insulate her from dating. She is a tom-boy to beat all tom-boys but also sweet, tender and funny. The best part of the show is her narrative of the world around her, her analogies to sports and her relationship with her brother. (Jim Gaffigan’s running commentary on suburban living is hilarious). The show airs on Thursday nights at 8:30 central – I invite you to watch.
