Thanks to a little show called Mad Men, ad men have stepped into the TV spotlight, bigtime. Next month, the Don Drapers of the world will be getting a little competition from their modern-day counterparts when TNT launches Trust Me, a show about a Chicago ad agency starring Eric McCormack and Tom Cavanagh.
McCormack plays Mason, a creative director who's quick on his feet but occasionally insecure. He's a nice guy in a ruthless world, waiting for his inner go-getter to take over. Cavanagh plays Conner, Mason's more impulsive, unpredictable professional partner. Their relationship takes a crazy turn early on in the series, when Mason is promoted and becomes Conner's boss.
From the preview, I'm liking the relationship between Conner and Mason already — and McCormack, especially, looks adorable as always. Maybe it's just my inner Will and Grace fan talking, but I'm really rooting for this show to be good. To check out the clip, just read more.

I dont like Tom, he irks me.
1I think this is a great pairing. It is going to be super weird seeing Eric McCormack NOT play gay though.
2LOVE Tom Cavanaugh, but I hope Eric has gotten rid of the tics he developed during Will and Grace.
3hmmm i guess this could be something that's interesting to see - and i think that it could be funny too given the cast. i'm sure that i'll figure out a way to either tune in or DVR it .
4I'll definitely try this one.
5OMG two of my favourite Canadian actors in one show? I will definitely have to watch this one!
6I'm in for at least four episodes thanks to Tom Cavanagh. Although, he hasn't had the best luck with good TV. I still miss Ed and Love Monkey.
7I'm excited to see whether this show turns out to be good or not, but I feel like it's riding on the tailwinds of Mad Men -- I mean a a show about a couple of ad men is hardly an original idea anymore.
