Show Summary

  • Returning Series
Cougar Town focuses on newly divorced mom, Jules Cobb (Courteney Cox). After spending her 20's raising her son, a newly divorced, Jules tries to find the balance between having her 20's in her 40's, raising her son, dealing with her ex, running a business, and helping a host of other wonderful characters through their own trials. Encouraged into action by her best friend Ellie Torres (Christina Miller) and her garish assistant, Laurie Keller (Busy Phillips), Jules enters back into the dating scene only to struggle with her ideas (and societies) about how to behave when you are 40 and single. The single-camera comedy comes from Scrubs creator Bill Lawrence and co-executive producer Courteney Cox. Cougar Town is produced by ABC Studios.moreless

  • Premise doesn't sound good, but the show surprisingly is light-hearted fun.

    Cougar Town sounds like a bad idea. It sounds as bad as I Hate My Teenage Daughter or How to Be a Gentleman, yet, unlike both of those, Cougar Town is actually really good when it pulls away from the 'cougar' aspect and focuses more on life as a single older women trying to be comfortable in her own life.
    This show is best described as 'light-hearted' because, well, it's fun. The cast of characters all interact really well, and a majority of the ideas on the show feel refreshing (like Penny Can)! Honestly, it reminds me of friends in that every character does their own thing like normal, has their own flaws and motivations and these plausibly drive events.

    Anyhow, I just want to say that if Cougar Town isn't highly rated, it's because of people who don't make an effort like the characters, or they just don't like the change between seasons, when the show was having an identity crisis of sorts because it, like the viewers, realized it really wasn't the Cougar Town it began as.moreless

    When i first started watching this show i had my doubts about how long its gonna last and its true that its definately not the best show ever but i agree with everyone else saying it grows on you.After watching a few episodes from season 2,i came close to quiting it but am glad i gave it a second chance cause now its became very pleasant to watch.Courtney Cox is always amazing and the jokes keep getting better and better.I really hope season 3 keeps up the good work.moreless

    Season 1 was great but it seemed that all the jokes got old in Season 2. There are great actors in this show and I had lots of laughs in Season 1, but things seemed to fizzle out in Season 2. The story lines got old, the characters lost their pizazz. I found that I was forcing myself to watch the show. But each weeks the laughs got less and less until I stopped watching it in October. I guess there are some shows that get a great start but can't keep it up. Cougar Town is one of them.moreless

  • I keep watching this show mainly for two reasons: Bobby and Lauren, but even if they are lovely, I don't think I'll keep watching. Cougar Town ticks me off more than it makes me laugh - and there's so many MUCH better shows out there!moreless

    I keep watching this show mainly for two reasons: Bobby and Lauren. While Andy is adorkable, Grayson is easy on the eye and Ellie is good for the occasional laugh - I just can NOT stand Jules. She is neurotic, mean, self centered, has an EXTREMELY unhealthy relation to her son aaaand she is absolutely and utterly unlikable so I have no clue as to why any of the characters in this show would even speak to her (sxcept perhaps her son, who pretty much has to... even if I'm pretty sure he could get a restraining order going for him there...)!

    I also do not appreciate the rudeness and crudeness of the humour sometimes. I do not find alcoholism funny and I don't think being mean is hilarious - which makes about 75% of the jokes fall flat. The rest of them? Well, that's where Bobby, Andy and Lauren comes in.

    Honestly,though: I don't think I'll keep watching. It ticks me off more than it makes me laugh and both Busy Phillips and Brian Van Holt have done so much more, so much better stuff. I think I'll keep to them...!moreless

    This show is really good, its not what you would expect from a show called "Cougar Town" but it was definitely worth my time and really made me laugh, (some episodes more than others). A few of the episodes were a little sad for a sitcom but it really felt like reality unlike other shows were the characters were not relatable. My taste of Television shows is not the same as most of the other viewers so I find very often that my favorite shows would get cut. I am very very pleased that finally there are enough other people that watch this show to keep it a float. I must not be crazy after all.moreless
