"Spring Training":
The season finale actuallyfilmed live at the Cubs' spring training, where the cast and crew tookadvantage of filming guerilla style. Says Jordana, "P.J. is now acolumnist and she can't figure out what she's going to write. Everystory she comes up with is a hack, clich? story idea that's been done amillion times before and she's kind of freaking out. She starts goingaround to all these random people at the stadium trying to find a humaninterest story. The way we shot it was the camera operator and I wentaround with a video camera, stopped people at the stadium, and juststarted interviewing them as though I was PJ. That was fun, I've nevergotten to do that guerilla style filmmaking before."
Bobby and P.J.: Last season's finale involved Bobby (
Kyle Howard)and P.J. finally taking a step forward in their relationship. Now thatthey're a couple, we had to ask: Can we expect a pregnancy orengagement Tuesday? "There's always that chance and that's all I'llsay." Before they take their relationship
that far, there's achance they could finally be shacking up. "I hope [their relationship]does [progress] because it opens up a whole new ball game of issues. Iwould love to see them move in together. They would have to reworktheir whole system with their friends. I would love to see how sharinga space becomes problematic and what gets on their nerves. I don't knowif it's going to happen. Hopefully we get another season to explorethat."
Steph and Kenny: Last season's cliffhanger also involved Steph (
Kellee Stewart) and Kenny (
Michael Bunin)secretly doing the dirty, but we've yet to get a resolution to theirrelationship. Could they have been getting it on this whole season?Jordana pleads the fifth: "Kenny is pregnant. It's weird, Kenny andBobby go to Lamaze class together in the last episode. No, I can't say!"
Now that you've gotten a tease for the couples of
My Boys, Jordana spills a little for everyone else in the finale:
- Andy (Jim Gaffigan): "He has to figure out what it's like to live without poker for a week. He plays poker with a table full of plants."
- Stephanie: "She gets to live without poker for a week."
- Mike (Jamie Kaler) & Kenny: "They get their balls autographed."
- Brendan (Reid Scott): "His game is totally thrownoff. It's the complete opposite [of his normal love life]. Brendan andthe real life Cubs player, Mike Fortino, have it out. They have a face off."
- Bobby: "I'll just say that Bobby's a really good boyfriend in this episode."
- P.J.: In addition to her writers' block, P.J. plays the organduring spring training. I did a really poor rendition of 'Heart andSoul.'"
Next Season: This season has consisted of morestandalone episodes, which has actually given the writers more freedomto bring on the funny. Jordana says, "I think next season will be moresimilar to this season. Of course, there's a few storylines that gothrough the season finale."
My Boys won't get word of anotherseason until September, but Jordana says she's all in if they getpicked up. "It's such a dream job. It's funny because we only shootthree months out of the year and everyone has become friends of mine,so it's kind of like going to summer camp. It's a great job, I wouldabsolutely love to do another season."
Do you want to see Bobby and P.J. take the next step? Do you think Kenny and Steph have been doing the dirty this whole time?
