Yes, Nancy Travis is very good. Tim Meadows is terrific but what the hell is he doing on this show ? Surely he can do better than this. And who on earth ever told Brian Doyle Murray that he was funny ? I'm still waiting on that one to pay off.

If you want to see a great, fun, clever cable sitcom try “10 Items Or Less ” when it returns. It has the fabulous Jennier Elise Cox.

It really matured and improved in the second season. I especially loved the storyline about Jim Gaffigan's character's ambivalence about the suburbs and family life when the rest of the gang are still city-dwelling singles. Also, when Brendan got a little "douche-y" and they had an intervention, not because they wanted to take him down a notch but because they honestly missed their good friend. And that's what the show is ultimately about: friendships and how they change and grow as people move from their 20s to their 30s (and beyond). You're dead on about My Boys.
