-- P.J. Franklin

That, in a nutshell, is the premise of the sitcom My Boys (Mondays, 10 p.m. ET on TBS).P.J. Franklin is a Cubs beat reporter for the Chicago Sun-Times, a single woman surrounded by male friends who thinks of everything in her life in sports terms.

Like, for example, the great guy she starts dating -- he's a five-tool boyfriend.She compares hooking up with him to being called up to the majors.

P.J. describes the giddiness of a new relationship this way: "Now that I'm dating Hank, it's like I went out and picked up the free agent that will bring me a championship."

As the series enters its second season on Thursday, it promises to make a star of Jordana Spiro, who leads an ensemble cast as P.J. Franklin, a beat writer for the Chicago Cubs who seems to be unlucky at love, even though most of her best friends are guys.

Jordana Spiroâ€"stars as sports writer "P.J. Franklin," who's ‘just one of the guys' in Turner Broadcasting's TV seriesâ€""My Boys," now in it's second season of laughs.

Jordana Spiro brings a freshly scrubbed appeal to P.J. Franklin, a Chicago Cubs beat writer who's one of the guys in the press box and is desperately searching for a guy outside it.
