Free Happy Hour at Molly Malone's Tonight Courtesy of "My Boys"

Not only is TBS' "My Boys" cool because it's got the incomparable Jim Gaffigan in it, but they're handing out poker chips that can be cashed in for drinks at Molly Malone's tonight from 6-7pm.
Every town in the US must have a Molly Malone's but tonight LA's will be transformed into the "My Boys" hangout Crowley's Tavern. Supposedly PJ and the boys will be there which sounds like fun [just heard that PJ and the boys will _not_ be there - but oh well, throw back a free drink to drown your sorrows]. All this is in celebration of the return of "My Boys" to TBS starting this Thursday at 9:30pm, one of the few bright spots on TV that we have to look forward to this Summer. Don't forget to tell them that LAist sent ya.

PantheonZeus, yes, I've reported on the return of "Mad Men" as being highly anticipated but I'm not convinced that "Swingtown" is all that great a show. Is it better than garbage like (the recently retired) "Men In Trees"? Yes. Is it a truly great show like "Mad Men", "Breaking Bad", or "Damages"? No.

I have only seen the pilot of Swingtown.
We will see how next few eps go. I am sucker for the tunes and the '76 setting tho. The uptight lady's kid will (most likely be written into) a tortured homo pre-teen and that should be interesting to watch.
I gotta get the "Damages" dvd, fer sure
