TNT has faith in their freshman series Men of a Certain Age. So much that they’ve decided to renew it for a second season before the first one is only half aired.
Men of a Certain Age follows the lives of three male friends who are adjusting to the challenges of middle age. The show stars Ray Romano, Andre Braugher, and Scott Bakula, and also features Norma Jean, Braeden Lemasters, Matt Price, Brittany Curran, Brian J. White, Shelly Desai, Lisa Gay Hamilton, Little JJ, Kwesi Boakye, Penelope Ann Miller, and Michael Hitchcock.
The series debuted to big numbers on December 7th, attracting 5.4 million viewers. That represented ad-supported cable’s top launch of 2009 for households and those ages 25-54 (a natural demographic for the series).
The numbers have dropped significantly since the premiere, with the most recent installment hitting a series low of about 2.9 million viewers.
Despite the decline, TNT believes in Men enough to renew the show for another round of 10 episodes. TNT executive VP Michael Wright said, “Men of a Certain Age has been embraced by viewers and critics alike, making our decision to renew an easy one.”
Season one is expected to finish on February 22nd. No word on when Men will return for season two.
What do you think? Are you glad that Men of a Certain Age is continuing or should it have been cancelled?

My husband and I love this show, love the cast. BRING IT BACK. I keep checking when season 2 will start because we don’t want to miss it.
I am glad it is being picked up. I can relate to so many of the story lines. I have been bursting at the seams waiting for the new season.
I love it. Great show.
I loved it this is good news
Great show, can’t wait for it to get back on the air
Excellent show! I just googled it to find out when Season 2 will on, it is an intelligent show about guys and there aren’t a whole lot of those out there.
This is such an intelligent show. It makes me laugh out loud, but it’s not stupid at all. I’m so glad it will be returning. I can’t wait.
Wow!!! What a wonderful show…….can’t wait for the season to start again….
I looooove Men of a Certain Age!!! Big fan, i just watched whole season 1 in 4 days 🙂
When will season 2 premier?
Thank you
@Ed Mc Arthur: No date yet, expected to be late 2010.
Best show in a long time, bring it back soooooon please!!!
My whole family loved this show. One of the best serial shows in a very long time. I rarely get involved in tv shows; preferring only movies and specials. However, this was very entertaining without being stupid or unreal.
I hate to see it not continue. TNT needs to have some faith and believe that the popularity of this show will continue to grow significantly.
I love the show. Keep it coming.
Men of a Certain Age MUST return!! I loved it, very funny.
I have been waiting for the new season to start, so I Googled it. It is one of the best
sitcom’s ever.
