Here we have a couple of American comedies that I am so glad I added to my DVD collection. I don't think My Boys ever did air in the UK, but I read about it online and had the DVDs shipped on the strength of that - I loved it! With Just Shoot Me, I did see a little on TV before buying and was not at all disappointed.
Whilst My Boys is essentially the tale of PJ Franklin, a sports writer in Chicago, and the many men in her life (mostly her close friends, rather than the lovers that come and go), Just Shoot Me focuses on Maya Gallo and her mad-cap group of misfits that work together at Blush magazine.
In both, you have strong but somewhat neurotic women with trouble in their jobs, their love-lives, and their family matters. There are a lot of laughs, plus a little romance and drama.
The downside is that neither complete series is out on DVD yet so I only have three out of four seasons of My Boys and three out of five seasons of Just Shoot Me. I still have my fingers crossed for the rest!
