Whenever a show I love is canceled or runs its course, I’m always sad to say goodbye to some of my favorite characters.  We get used to visiting them in their homes and workplaces every week, so it’s difficult to say goodbye.

What eases the TV pain is when the actors who played our favorite characters come back to film or TV on a new show, giving us more small doses of the same voice, mannerisms, and more.

So you can imagine how excited I was when I first heard about the new TNT show Trust Me , starring two of my favorite actors–Erik McCormack and Tom Cavanagh as ad guys in Chicago.  Will and Grace was an institution for so long, and the show Ed was one of the smartest shows out there.  Both these charming and handsome men are so fun to watch, so I couldn’t wait to see Trust Me in action.

I was able to get early copies of the first two episodes thanks to Beth Feldman at Rolemommy.com , and I love the syndergy of these two actors as they play the yin and yang type odd couple formula that works so well. McCormack is straight man to Cavanagh’s quirk, but Cavanagh being the tortured artist is when he really resonates the most.

The rest of the cast is full of talented people, including Monica Potter (whom met with a group of mommybloggers here in Chicago just this last Friday!) as the award winning copywriter who rubs people the wrong way.  The first two episodes are a lot of fun, and I can’t wait to tune in each week to yet another TNT winner.

Be sure to catch the show on Monday nights on TNT at 10/9 CST!
