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?
The only reason I would watch Fox is because it runs The Cool Kids. One of the best shows this season!
We love this show and know a few other people that watch it too. I enjoy seeing the various guest stars and how they interact with the main characters. Please renew this show.
Love this show! Soooo fun
And real…my Mom was just like Vicky, after all the cute men.
Love this show, it’s so funny and real!!!
Retirees are soooo like that, my Mom was just like Vicky, going after all the men that took intrest.
I really like this show. I have watched every episode. Ms. Lawrence speaks well for women who keep on living regardless of age. She keeps those three fun loving men regardless what they dream up next.
I like this show. It’s a good follow for Last Man Standing.
Please do not cancel the cool kids! It really makes my friday night! It is such a great show! Vicki Lawerence is just the best! I have been watching her for so many years! Would be great if Carol Burnett would guest star!
Leslie Jordan is a hoot!
Please do not cancel cool kids, it is such a cute show and I really look forward to it after a crazy week at work. I love the character chemistry, this show has such silliness it leaves me with a sore stomach from laughing so hard
Very funny Friday night show and the cast really work well together! Renew, please
This ensemble cast is a laugh a minute especially Leslie Jordan. Please renew the Cool Kids for the fall lineup.
Horrible one string banjo tv show. Ok, we get it! They are a bunch of foul mouthed old people who talk about sex all the time. It gets old (pardon the pun) real fast. If you have seen one episode you gave seen them all.
Please renew. Have watched every episode.
The last show ranks as one of the best on my list. They could not have picked a more appropriate actor to play Sid’s wife. A laugh fest!!
I look forward to watching this show every week!!
Please renew it.
Please renew The Cool Kids A very funny group of characters
