This is the one show I find myself wishing it was about 30 minutes longer.

Robert Loggia is so underrated. Watching him sitting in his recliner in the home, he was very convincing as a man who felt marginalized by the world, and just not caring anymore. It was nice to see his transformation from feeling he had no purpose in life, to getting back into the game and wanting to fix that leaky fawcet.

While Bakula's character still feels somewhat like a "filler" for time between the other two, this week he had something with a bit more substance to work with and pealed back another layer to the character. Good stuff.

This week's show was a "feel good" eppie IMO. Like that Thoreau's Dad lightened up a bit and worked together on remaking the commercial.

Loved seeing Robert Loggia!

Terry's character is really rounding out!

So far I'm glad I stuck with the show.

Last night's epi was fantastic. Goes to show that good drama can still be found on television Men of a Certain Age: Season 1, Episode 8 - TNT

I like how Terry got smacked in the face with reality, has happened to me a few times Guess it wasn't quite true what Terry was saying in the diner about how life just always dumps good fortune in his lap. This time he thought he found another nugget, but then rapidly found there is a price to pay. I loved the bit with the burnt out light He really turned around and found his gifts.

Oh yea, loved this epi. Come on Senior Tour!

I want to be friends with these guys. Series writer and director should consider that a success yes?

Only 2 more episodes? Man seasons are getting shorter and shorter - soon they'll be just be pilots and no series

Great episode. I really like Joe's employees. Maria's zinger at the end was FANTASTIC!
Leg Cramp!!

I had to pause the show as I fell off the couch from laughing!

She ask you to "put your p***** through a Silwood shower" said so subtle, soft, part of conversation, hilarious

watching the gambling on the game thread was so painful

Teabag?

Waterboy? OMG

"I'm like Tarzan, I don't need a lot"

Man I love these guys

Season Finale next week?!?!?!

They better have a second season! Who do we write? Call? I'm so sick of good things being cancelled.

The "Waterboy" comment was quite the cheap shot by Marcus!

I will be sending my e-mail to TNT to please renew this show!

I'm a little confused also by "finale 2 episodes". Of the season? Of the series? Sunday night was so good! I sure hope there is a second season too.

Ann made a big mistake getting Jerry back in with his old "buddies".
