The premiere of Off Their Rockers was surely helped by having the 90-minute Betty White’s 90th Birthday: A Tribute to America’s Golden Girl special as a lead-in. Off Their Rockers got a positive start and stands as NBC’s second-highest rated half hour series of the season.
Note: These ratings are collected by the Nielsen company and are the final national numbers. These are different from the fast affiliate numbers which are just estimates of the actual ratings and are reported on by most other outlets. The final nationals are typically released within 24 hours of the programming or, in the case of weekends and holidays, a couple days later.

Please renew this series. I had so much fun watching it. The writers did a super job with it. I laughed and laughed. I’m looking forward to watching the other 11 episodes!:)

I am 72 and my husband is 76. We think it is one of the best shows we have seen for a long time. All the reality shows now are boring to us, even stuped. We know people don’t really live the way the show makes the young think. But when old people do some of the crazy things they do we have lived to see meny of them.

I’ve told so many people about the show and they laughed just hearing about it. Can’t wait to let everyone know when the next show is. My sister saw it too and she and I laughed all over again when we recounted what we… Read more »
OMG hilarious! Love it!! Want more!! The whole family watched and we talked about it at work all week. Finally a really funny show that the entire family can watch. Way to go Betty White. She can do no wrong!
Definitely renew it! I started flipping through the guide on my TV when I read what it was about. It sounded funny so I decided to record it. Yesterday I started flipping through it again but unfortunately I saw it wasn’t rescheduled for Monday. I hope the other episodes are scheduled to air soon. I was laughing SO hard! It was absolutely hilarious!
Please renew! I laughed out loud! Loved it!
It should DEFINITELY be renewed. It was the funniest thing that I have seen in a long time. I was cracking up with my wife.
I thought it was funny and inventive and finally the table have turned on the younger generation and we get to see how truly funny senior citizens can be. Their not dead yet.
Please renew!!! I loved this show! TV is desperate for something new…
