If you are in the modern demographic that TV and movies are aiming for (16-35), then move on. But if you have been around the block far too many times, and find that age has reduced your "friendships" to a handful of friends, then you are the target audience for Boomers. It helps if you can laugh at your self to really enjoy these characters because you know them too well. The familiar are here, the bored husbands, the well-intentioned but bossy wife (wives), and the endless semi-joyless days of retirement. Admit it, the golden years aren't golden for everyone. Here those irritants get played for good natured laughs. Comedy based on real issues—an aging is as real as they get—can hit close to home, and I suspect more than one sixty plus boomer has cast a baleful eye at the spouse while watching this series.
Good cast and they play off of each other well. I was pleased to see Philip Jackson, the intrepid Inspector Japp from Poirot. Others you might recognize from some of their mouth youthful roles: I recall Stephanie Beacham (The Colbys and Dynasty) and her Playboy photo spread. And the series has a great sound track that changes from episode to episode but someone does a great job matching the song to the prevailing theme.
