Advertised as a male variation on the cutting-edge HBO comedy series Sex and the City, The Mind of the Married Man was produced in 1999 (as My Dirty Little Mind), but did not make its broadcast debut until September 23, 2001 (and at that, it was unveiled one week later than its scheduled September 16 premiere due to coverage of the World Trade Center tragedy). The stories -- actually anecdotes, or more specifically, dramatized monologues -- focused on three Chicagoans, lifelong pals who met once a week to commiserate on their romantic relationships. Political columnist Mickey Barnes (Mike Binder) spoke at great length of his marriage to British lass Donna (Sonya Walger) and of his sexual fantasies concerning his sexy new assistant, Missy (Ivana Milicevic). Offering comfort and advice (some times too little or too much of one or the other) were henpecked hubby Doug Nelson (Taylor Nichols) and shameless philanderer Jake Berman (Jake Weber). Twenty half-hour episodes were produced in all.
