Facebook hits the big time on My Boys
People have been saying that Facebook is mainstream for a while. But what really defines mainstream. Well art imitating life has always been a good measure.
What was the main theme of the 12 May 2009 episode of My Boys staring Jordana Spiro? None other than Facebook. Of course, the show has its own Facebook page.
The show is about a 20 something woman named PJ who is sports writer and has a group of male friends. In this episode, called Facebook the Past, the gang is using Facebook to connect with old friends and classmates or to get the scoop on possible girls they want to date.
Literally, the whole show is about Facebook or comparing Facebook to the "real world". When a popular TV show is all about a topic, that topic is mainstream.
