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?

Men of a certain age should come back for season 2. The writing is great, unpretentious and for a change it does not pander to the very young. My husband and I who are in our 40’s made a point of watching every episode and the re-runs.
Don’t care for Scott Backula but love the show in general and especially Andre Braugher. Where the heck is it? Will it ever come back? I still have it set to record on my Tivo but it never does…..
Clara, I’ve been recording it. It’s been on in the middle of the night on TNT. Maybe you just need to change your settings?
Thanks for keeping this show going! I finally caught up with the episode on TNT website and watching the shows back to back really puts the story together. The writing is well thought out and delightly entertaining. I did learn some new words too, so I’ll add educational as well. The original reason I even looked up this series was to see what Scott Bukula was doing on the litttle screen these days after leaping and trekking. Ray Romano, smart move to bring two great balancing actors back to t.v. I can’t wait to buy season dvds of this show… Read more »
My husband and I love this show! We can’t wait for Season Two.
For once we agree with the critics!
Good job, TNT.
I love this show, and my husband loves watching it too. He looks forward to it more than I do.
Keep it coming,, A great shw
One of the few shows I always make time to watch. It’s a great date evening with my wife…and I’m not a fan of family time in front of the TV.
