Men of a Certain Age
Friday, March 12, 2010
7:00 pm PT
Saban Theatre in Beverly Hills
In Person
Ray Romano, "Joe Tranelli"
Scott Bakula, "Terry Elliott"
Andre Braugher, "Owen Thoreau Jr.
And additional members of the cast and creative team.
A Peter Pan who has absolutely nothing but his freedom. A play-by-the-rules guy with a great wife and kids who is under his father’s thumb. A newly separated nerd who can’t shake a nasty gambling habit. Three men who grew up with the American Dream have reached midlife; the promise is broken yet their friendship remains intact (stoked by diner breakfasts where they argue and soothe each other’s wounds). Each episode opens with home movies out of The Wonder Years, yet the seriocomic plots are more like Up in the Air. “As you get to know the characters better, the credit sequence becomes increasingly touching, underscoring…the true pains of adulthood,” writes Nancy Franklin in The New Yorker.
Men of a Certain Age is produced by TNT Original Productions.

As we left off last season with Terry working at the dealership. Will Terry ever find a lasting job.
I got to ask does it bother any of you that there is so much profanities said on the show. I am enjoying the show but not all the foul mouth words.

I love the show. The guys are great together. Just the right blend of "real life" with a touch of comedy. The score wonderfully enhances the show.
One question: In the opening credits, is the little blonde boy really Scott Bakula?

Would any of you like to comment on the differences between working on a production for a broadcast network with a 22-episode schedule versus a shorter shedule for cable? Do the different schedules offer different creative challenges and opportunities?

The cast seems to have great chemistry. Events seem to flow flawlessly and realistically. I would like to know if this camaraderie between the characters has also developed off-camera, and has this led to any interesting pranks behind-the-scenes? How does the cast and crew celebrate birthdays and special occasions? I would love to hear about any interesting behind-the-scenes antics and if they'll eventually be written into the script.

Men of a Certain Age just gets better and better! I love the 'fly on the wall' feel of it and the way it's been shot. I hate that it's only 10 episodes a season.
Who chooses the excellent songs for the show and when will Terry pick up a guitar or play the piano and sing?

I love this show! It's touching, funny, intelligent, and engaging! And having three hunks on the show makes it that much more appealing! (Yes, all three are hunks in their own right!)
The episode that had Bakula's character trying to be a part of the Boys & Girls Club, Romano's character getting his dad a job, and Braugher's character making a car commercial was priceless!
How was the (excellent) cast chosen for this show?
