There are some new TV shows, coming on air and new seasons too of shows that are already airing.
However one thing I have been noticing is a common thread: mid life crises, and that too mostly played by actors known for their portrayal of youthful characters..for instance
Cougar town – Courtney Cox – divorced business owner dating younger men (Theres even a role for Lisa Kudrow)
Mr. Sunshine – Matthew Perry – Sports arena manager going through a midlife crisis
Men of a certain Age – Ray Romano (exception) – Friends in mid 40’s dealing with the realities of middle age
Did the audience just get older or is this what younger audiences want? Well as long as it is comedy, I guess people will watch it. Hope they are as good as they are made out to be. For now…back to the TV…
