Jeez, don't we have enough threads about "My Boys"?

FX insists the change wasn't made because the new series read too much like "Christine Daniels: The L.A. Times Sportswriter Formerly Known as Mike Penner Story."

In fact, an FX rep says the change from sportswriter to gynecologist was made before Daniels penned her famous Los Angeles Times piece in April, formally announcing her new sex and name, though as recently as last month, news reports about the show in development called it a series about a sportswriter.
...
Also gone is the working title "4 Oz.," the FX rep told The TV Column, but other reporters continued to call it "4 Oz."

In interviews, Murphy used to say the 4 ounces was a reference to the weight of a human penis, which, he quipped, is "remarkably light given the amount of havoc it creates for men."

Actually, according to Harold M. Reed, a doctor who runs a sexual reassignment surgery center in Bay Harbor, Fla., and who has focused on genital reconstruction surgery for 20 years -- you may have seen him on the "Today" show -- it's too heavy. The 4 ounces, that is.

Reed tells The Post's Meg Smith that, as best he can figure, the Little Colonel when he's resting weighs about half that.
