TBS Sets Men at Work and Sullivan & Son Premiere Dates

TBS just announced two new comedy series will debut this summer. The buddy comedy Men at Work will premiere on May 24th at 10 pm (ET/PT), with Sullivan & Son starring Steve Byrne taking over that time spot on July 19th.
 
Danny Masterson, Michael Cassidy, Adam Busch and James Lesure star in Men at Work which was created by Franklin & Bash star Breckin Meyer. The plot: “Men at Work follows the misadventures of four buddies who work together at a magazine. Masterson plays the recently dumped Milo, whose friends are determined to help him get back in the game. Lesure is Gibbs, a photographer and successful ladies man. Cassidy plays Tyler, a features writer who brings a dose of style and sophistication to the group. And Busch is Neal, a somewhat nebbish reporter and the only one in the group with a steady girlfriend. Together, the four serve as each other’s wingmen as they navigate work, friendship and women.”
 
Vince Vaughn (The Break-Up) and Peter Billingsley (best known as the star of the classic holiday movie, A Christmas Story) executive produce Sullivan & Son. The plot: “Sullivan & Son takes place in a popular bar in a working-class Pittsburgh neighborhood. Filled with locals and regulars, the establishment known as Sullivan & Son serves as the unofficial “town hall” for the neighborhood. As the series opens, Steve Sullivan (Byrne) is a successful corporate attorney from New York who brings his girlfriend, Ashley (Brooke Lyons) for a visit just as his Irish-American father, Jack Sullivan (Dan Lauria), and Korean mother, Ok Cha (Jodi Long), are preparing to sell the bar and retire. Upon arrival, Steve reconnects with his best friend, Owen (Owen Benjamin); gets accosted by his long-suffering, under-appreciated younger sister, Susan (Vivian Bang); endures offensive comments from gruff barfly Hank (Brian Doyle Murray); and gets hit on by tipsy cougar Carol (Christine Ebersole). He even feels a rekindled romantic spark with his former sweetheart, Melanie (Valerie Azlynn).
 
It doesn’t take Steve long to realize that what he really wants out of life is to return to the old neighborhood and take over Sullivan & Son, even if it means giving up a lavish Manhattan lifestyle with the gorgeous Ashley. And so begins Steve’s quest for a more meaningful and rewarding life behind the bar.”
