Ok, That's Enough.

So, TBS has a new series called "My Boys". It's set in Chicago.
I hate it already.
Aside from the silly premise of a woman with virtually no girlfriends who hangs out with all dudes, I counted 7 TOTALLY unnecessary references to the fact that the show did, in fact, take place in Chicago.
A few select:
One guy was wearing a Metro Tshirt. Sigh.
A lunch was had at the Billy Goat. Really?
Jenga was played at a table. In a bar. Bigger sigh.
In the preview for next week, some awful bald man hits on the main character and in the most archetypical way possible says "I'm from Glenview. I still live there!"
FUCK YOU "MY BOYS"!

OH AND? Gratuitous references to the sponsor Match.com. And portraying that troll pit as a viable dating option. FYI, it's NOT.

Basically it's just a Dramaturg circle jerk.

I won't be watching again.
