Just Shoot Me was an American television sitcom airing on NBC from 1997 to 2003.

Description

The show followed the staff at the fictional fashion magazine Blush, and their wacky exploits. Stars included Laura San Giacomo (the anal retentive Maya Gallo), David Spade (the geeky Dennis Finch), Wendie Malick (the ex-model Nina Van Horne), George Segal (the Hefner-like Jack Gallo) and Enrico Colantoni as womanizing photgrapher Elliot DiMauro. The characters played by Segal and San Giacomo are allegedly modeled after Hugh and Christie Hefner.

Guest Stars occasionally appeared on the show, ranging from Saturday Night Live comedians such as Dana Carvey and Jon Lovitz, to models such as Rebecca Romijn-Stamos.

The show ran for 7 seasons between 1997 to 2003. The show performed decently until the final season, where the final three episodes weren't even played until syndication. Rumours abounded that new cast member Rena Sofer as Vicki turned the audience off (and detracted from storylines involving the original core characters).
