TV show description:
A multi-camera sitcom on FOX, The Cool Kids revolves around a loyal but motley crew who live at a retirement community and will break any rule to have fun.
Hank (Grier) is the leader of a trio of male friends. He’s gruff and opinionated and not completely unlike Archie Bunker. Charlie (Mull) is a bumbling wanderer who constantly goes off on tangents about bizarre episodes from his life. Meanwhile, Sid (Jordan) is a fun-loving but quite melodramatic little guy.
The lives of these guys are complicated when Margaret (Lawrence) forces her way into the group. She’s a brash and confident woman who’s not going to take crap from anyone — especially not these three.
Though they may be old, this quartet is far from done with life. Growing old with dignity is for chumps. The self-proclaimed “cool kids” are determined to make the third act of their lives the craziest and most interesting one yet.
Episode #22 — The Friend-aversary
Hank, Charlie and Sid prepare their Friend-iversary party, and don’t include Margaret. Noticing the tension between Hank and Sid, Margaret encourages Sid to speak up for himself. Meanwhile, Sid has his sights set on the patio for their party and attempts to convince the cat ladies to release it to them.
First aired: May 10, 2019
What do you think? Do you like The Cool Kids TV show? Do you think it should have been cancelled or renewed for a second season on FOX?
I love this show. So sad when I heard it was canceled. I don’t watch much TV, but I made it a point to watch this show. We always taped it. I don’t laugh that much at a lot of comedy, but this show made me laugh and happy. Hope you reconsider they’re renewal. You’re making a big mistake canceling them.
The Cool Kids was the high-light of my week! Why was it canceled?!
The Cool Kids was one of the bast and funniest shows on TV, That is one show that will truly be missed!!!!!!
This was one of the greatest new shows!! Why cancel it?? It was fantastic. Please bring it back!!!!!!!
So disappointed that this show was cancelled!! So funny …my father is in a “retirement” home and swears this show could have been about his life there. Another network should pick it up. GREAT show…
This show was the BEST! Please bring it back Very disappointed that it was canceled
THis was a hilarious show. If you would let the over 49 demo have a vote you would probably find the show was popular. The 19-49 demo’s just cant relate. It is not fair. We watch ads and buy products also. BRING IT BACK. THEY DID SUCH A GREAT JOB
BRING IT BACK !!!
Very disappointed to see “The Cool Kids” cancelled. I only saw about the last half of the season but I was hooked on it the first time I saw it. It’s the best show I’ve seen on Tv in many years and the only one on regular TV that I looked forward to watching.
Please sign the petition on Change.org for Save the Cool Kids
AP Bio just got a third season on NBC Universal Streaming Service. It also has a petition on Change.org. That was the deciding factor on bringing it back was the petition from the fans. It does work!
I loved this show.Please Please bring it back!
Please give it one more season. Please! Last Man Standing followed by the Cool Kids was an awesome line up on Friday nights. Not a big fan of the screaming Chef shows. But, that first hour on Friday nights had my undivided attention while I laughed my butt off. Please bring back the Cool Kids and keep that great Friday night line up on Fox.
I wish that Fox would give it another chance put it on another night or another network pick it up you are too quick to cancel it I my family and I really enjoy the show hate to see it go whatever you put in it’s place I will simply turn on another channel
I really enjoyed this show and was so funny and real life. I always looked forward to Friday notes so I could enjoy. I am sad now it is canceled. Bring it back Please
I found this show ( The Cool Kids) very funny. Why would you cancel this show?
