TBS has ordered up another season of 'My Boys' according to insiders, bringing the comedy back for a third go-round. The show concluded its second season Monday night, and has drawn an average of 1.5 million total viewers this summer--up from the 1.4 million it averaged in its first season, mostly aired in the fourth quarter of 2006. TBS is expected to pick up eight episodes for the third season; it had ordered 13 for the first, but trimmed that to seven this year.

President Steve Koonin says he is aiming for four original half-hours in prime time and four in late night.
