It sounds like a match made in reality show heaven: a bunch of cantankerous, get-off-my-lawn oldsters living with a swarm of spoiled, arrogant whippersnappers.
But TV Land has a bit more in mind with "Forever Young" than inciting an age war. The Ashton Kutcher-produced series that premieres Wednesday, April 3, seeks to foster understanding between the two groups, and hopefully prove that old saying about age being nothing but a number.
