This was my first exposure to My Boys and I think they picked up a new viewer in the process.

The show is far from perfect as there are various points where the audience might not laugh at a single sentence. Being from a female creator there are times when none of the male characters are funny, when it is usually the females who aren't humorous on other sitcoms.

Jordana Spiro is a funny, attractive and decent actress but she fails to have the star power and ability to take control of the screen in the way Tina Fey and Mary-Louise Parker, also on shows with female leads. She presents a likable character in PJ, but her scenes are often not very strong.

Jim Gaffigan brings credibility to the show, but if you have seen That 70's Show or his stand-up you know that he can be funnier than he is here.

This program suffers from the same dilemma that The Bill Engvall Show does. The characters, while original, are one-dimensional and it is hard to see them outside their comfort zone. When favorite character lists come out, you won't be seeing anyone from My Boys on it. Michael Bunin also does nothing but annoy the viewer. His irksome and pesky behavior leaves the audience reaching for the remote.

I also don't care for the forced narration from PJ. It comes off as too Grey's Anatomy when Jordana Spiro is better than Ellen Pompeo in every way.moreless
