Joe, Terry and Owen's college days together seem a long time ago, even though the succeeding years have passed quickly. Still best friends, they have formed a different bond, with all the changes and challenges of midlife, as they lean on one another through the second act. Slightly neurotic and a recently separated father of two, Joe once harbored dreams of pro golf stardom but now owns and runs a party store; perpetual bachelor Terry, laid-back and handsome, has breezed through life (and ladies) as an actor, an office temp and a yoga instructor; and Owen is a stressed-out husband and father who works as a car salesman for his overbearing father.

Tim Goodman The Hollywood Reporter The stories of these men, these friends, are always compelling, mature and spot-on. Sep 25, 2019 Full Review Brian Lowry Variety Men of a Certain Age returns at the same laconic pace as its first season, eschewing big dramatic flourishes in exchange for slowly build-ups, amusing situations and small, bittersweet moments. Dec 6, 2010 Full Review Alan Sepinwall HitFix It's so small and spare and simple, and yet it can be incredibly effective at what it does. Dec 6, 2010 Full Review Rob Owen Pittsburgh Post-Gazette They're not making evolutionary leaps but these men do show enough signs of progress that viewers who appreciated their struggles and triumphs in the first season will have renewed reason to cheer them on in season two. Dec 6, 2010 Full Review Matt Roush TV Guide By the poignant end, I was looking forward to welcoming them back, and I'm happy to say the new episodes don't disappoint. Dec 6, 2010 Full Review Renee Scolaro Rathke PopMatters Its layered and nuanced analysis of male identity makes Men of a Certain Age worth watching.

Scott S Such a quality show. It deserved much longer run. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/29/24 Full Review Audience Member This series had everything you could want in a Comedy/Drama. 100% on the Tamotometer – absolutely. No surprises from Scott Bakula or Andre Braugher being that they are both fantastic actors, but I was quite impressed with Ray Romano performance. Jon Manfrellotti also brought his A game – he is a comic genius. Although, she didn't get too much screen time, Penelope Ann Miller was completely believable – thought she was an excellent choice for Sonia. I still don't get why it didn't make it to the third season. Was it too quirky? too intellectual? I have no idea. It's a shame really and I wanted to see what happens with Dory and Joe.
