While watching the second season of Men of a Certain Age in January, many viewers were dismayed to hear that TNT was calling the sixth episode the “season finale.” Had the show been cancelled?
Actually, TNT decided to cut the season into two parts. At some point, the cable channel increased the season order from 10 to 12 installments. The first six finished airing in January and now the second half dozen episodes are set to begin airing on Wednesday, June 1st at 10pm.
The first half of season two attracted a 0.5 rating in the all-important 18-49 demographic and an average of 2.16 million viewers each week. That’s a significant drop from season one which registered a 1.0 in the demo and an average of 3.19 million.
Will Men of a Certain Age be renewed for season three? That will likely have a lot to do with how well the remaining episodes perform in June. Unless the ratings pick up, it doesn’t look likely that we’ll see Ray Romano, Scott Bakula, and Andre Braugher on screen together after that.
What do you think? Are you glad to hear Men of a Certain Age is returning? Do you think it’ll get renewed for season three?

I want the boys BACK! – tehy were so totally realistic! & and awesomely comical – the boys of that certain age were very convincing of their ages! – Come on come back for another season!! – Australia Wants You
Best show on t.v. really relatable to regular everyday people… instead of the CSI hype and not so relatable real lives … Love Ray and his buddies…. don’t cancel this show please.
As a 50 year old male, I love this show. It relates to the midde American male and the challenges we face every day. Please keep this show on! It is reality slapped in your face, relationships, marriage, infidelity, children, finances, work, homes, friendships, health and much more. I didn’t watch the show as it aired, although I wanted to( just never on home on the nites it aired). Though I have watched all the episodes On Demand. I am very much looking forward to season 3, please don’t cancel!

Hi mamma Sharon,you and I have the same taste in TV viewing. Paul (Poppa)
I really enjoyed this show. Sad to hear might not make it to Season 3. Love Ray Romano and the rest of the cast.
I love this show. It is about normal people. We just don get that any more.
I really liked to watch Men of a certain age, i hope it stays for several more seasons…
My FAVORITE show. I miss it very much
It was a great show and it should return, very sad to see it end.
It’s so sad to hear that “Men of a Certain Age” has been cancelled. Season 2’s finale was great, and now, nothing? What are we supposed to look forward to now? I’m not yet ‘of a certain age’, and I love this show; it definitely cannot be matched by shows that are raking in viewers (Jersey Shore or Real Housewives, anyone?). TNT is making a big mistake in pulling the plug on one of the most well-written and well-casted shows nowadays. Here’s hoping that they change their minds!
