Despite some obvious jokes (Dad refers to Facebook as ''Facial Book''), the oldsters make competent work of the enterprise and display the knack for Betty White-esque ribaldry that's becoming this network's calling card.
Retired at 35 does have the good sense to create a story. If it ever relaxes enough to tell it, the show could become more than "lukewarm in Florida."
It has its moments and is well-appointed with seasoned actors who know how to hit their marks. So if you like Hot In Cleveland, then by all means stick around.
This show lurches along, all its sitcom puzzle pieces laid out without being assembled into even a Hollywood picture of life.
Retired at 35 is all about hitting your mark, spewing out a tired line then waiting for the canned laughter to start. Some people like the comfort of familiarity, but others just feel the contempt. Ahem.
If "Hot in Cleveland" demonstrated there's life in comfort-food comedy beyond the major networks, Retired reminds us that while it's possible to triumph in TV with reheated concepts, poor execution remains the surest way to get unceremoniously put out to pasture.
Don't ask me what Retired at 35 has to offer. TV Land's new companion sitcom for "Hot in Cleveland" is a piece of brash nonsense that, with jokes featuring older people talking about "Facialbook" and "texturizing," seems like it was written to target people who died about 30 years ago.
