Back in October I posted about an upcoming sitcom from TBS about the life of a Wrigley sportswriter.

It aired for the first time last night.

I was hoping for a show that was more about a sportswriter's life at Wrigley Field, but instead it is about the dating adventures of a lady sportswriter for the SunTimes and her time spent hanging out with friends away from the ballpark, with occasional references and glimpses of Wrigley, but not much beyond that.

I'm really not interested in seeing a "dating series". I'd prefer to see a program about life at Wrigley. The players, the fans, the vendors, security, the superfans, fireman across the street, scenes from the El, etc. I guess I had hoped for something more like the CBS series "Clubhouse" and less like "Sex in the City".

Anyway, here is the TBS website for this series...

and here are some reviews of the show:
