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?

This a great show, can’t wait for the next season
We love the show and I was surprised to hear that they were even considering cancelling the show. TNT really pushed the awareness of the show before it was on the air but afterward nothing much. I don’t know if people are aware that it is still on. Its just a matter of local reminders about the shows time slot. There is so much bad TV on lately and this show is really creative and full of great enjoyment that it would really be a sad state of affairs if this was not promoted !!
Love Men of a Certain Age. My husband and I watch it every Monday and I can’t wait for season two.
I love this show I am so glad they are going to do a season two. I hope it stays on for a while. Thanks for making a show thats finally funny and fresh
Glad this is coming back, One of the few thought provoking shows for men!!My husband and I both love this show. Sometimes the dialog is a bit hard to understand but other than that, it is A+
