Cougar Town

For fans of Bill Lawrence (scrubs, spin city etc) this is another brilliant comedy that is goofy and light hearted but filled with heartfelt moments.

This is an underrated and under appreciated series, partly (as the writers have acknowledged themselves) due to the name. The initial premise of the show changes quite quickly in season 1 and stays this way until the end.

The casting and performances are spot on

It's like watching a bunch of friends, and I will miss them now it's over. There is something here for everyone (I'm a mid 30s fella).

Give it a chance, I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.

Well, I see no one else likes it. Oh well. I think its hilarious. Maybe a little much for basic television, but on cable it would be awesome. I think it's really funny. I don't think it's offensive at all. Just because we don't feel like we relate to a character doesn't mean that they are offensive. I'm from Texas. Have you ever seen how they portray us on television. They act like we are all how do I put this, "Big ol' country bumpkins that say ya'll every other word and wear cowboy hats and belt buckles as large as our state, and that every word we say has to have some southern twang to it". It's a television show. It's funny. For once can we just let one show survive at least one season. I've already lost Lipstick Jungle and Samantha Who.

Cougar town may be a chick show but that doesn't change the fact that it's still really good. It's 22 minutes of irrational normalcy that is somewhat believable but extreme. Some people may think it's too far fetched but everybody knows at least one person who is always the "dramatic attention seeking type". So I buy the craziness and I can even relate to a lot of their issues. In fact I wish I had such a tight knit crazy group of friends like they have. It looks like fun.

Aside from the craziness, the episodes focus on real life issues but with a comedic edge. It's not without its flaws but overall Cougar Town is really entertaining.

When I first started watching this show, I did it only because of Courtney Cox. I'm a huge "Friends" fan, so it was nice seeing her again. But the show started as a disaster, there were no other topics in it but relationships and they were whining all the time. Actually after watching 13 episodes I stopped watching the show for a really long time. Then after a couple of years someone talked me into resuming the show because not far from where I stopped watching it, it transforms into kinda like Friends - no wonder the show was almost renamed to "Friends with Beverages". Not as good as "Friends" but watchable, I just really don't like Josh Hopkins and I'm not ever sure why.

Since IMDb cancel the discuss board for some reason I don't know, I can't figure out what is the real feeling of most people for this show. I have to say I was not interested in this show at first. Even I know there is Monica here. Still I started to watch it because Abed from "community". And it turns an amusing experience I didn't expect.

I like it!

No, I don't appreciate most life style of the characters. I don't love it as my favorite "community" or my love "friends", "HIMYM" either. But it's a warm, touched, comedy actually.

I really wonder why people feel so different about it. Almost 50% love and 50% hate it. I guess maybe I haven't seen sitcom much. Or maybe people feel it's too girly. Anyway I like it. It may not classic, however it's definitely above the average.
