A TNT dramedy which premiered in January of 2009, Trust Me stars Tom Cavanagh and Eric McCormack as two advertising gurus in Chicago named Connor and Mason. The show focuses on their relationship with each other and their team once Mason is promoted while Connor is not. Side plots also revolve around the balance of work and family for Mason, and the newcomer to the team, Sarah Krajicek-Hunter and all of her neuroses. It proposes to be a character-driven drama and is in no way similar to another show on AMC.As the show progressed, it started dealing with Mason's balancing act between work and family. His ambition is tempered by his agency's lack of new clients and loss of current clients, the latter of which may be partially his fault. Connor meanwhile struggles with his love life. Sarah also, but from a much different perspective as she deals with a divorce and reentering the dating scene.

Career Versus Man: Possibly what led to the break up of Sarah's marriage; she's one of the few who chose career over man.

One of the Boys: Sarah, who feels more comfortable working on beer than shampoo.

Naïve Newcomer: Interesting case with Sarah. She's not new to the world of advertising—in fact, she's won several awards and will continue to remind you about that at length—just new to Mason and Connor's company.

Product Placement
 Trust Me / int_f511ea9b
comment
Product Placement: Quite a bit of it, actually. And it does this without any irony as a show about the ad business. So far most of the products they're promoting are fictional, but they've also done ads for Dove Haircare, Rolling Rock Beer, and Bertolli. They also drink from Starbucks cups quite often. Tone down on the subtly, guys.
