Just Shoot Me! was a Work Com about Maya Gallo, a highly qualified but difficult-to-work-with journalist, who, after alienating one news anchor too many, is forced to take a job with the trashy Cosmopolitan-esque fashion magazine run by her estranged father Jack Gallo. Originally focusing on the father-daughter bonds, it quickly became a workplace ensemble piece with supporting characters Dennis Finch (the dad's personal assistant) and Nina Van Horn (an ex-model turned writer for the magazine) taking over as the main characters of the series.
