    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.

    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.

    we thoroughly enjoyed "Retired at 35" the last season and sincerely hope that it will continue to be shown.
    It gave us a lot of laughs and fou
    nd the cast to be excellent. Thank you, LWilliams Expand
  2. A death row convict on life support would demand my attention more than this ill-fated sitcom. The characters are uninteresting....the plots are anemic.....and, just as in "Just Shoot Me", the "whoosieface-what'shisname" that I refuse to remember is horrible. What a shame to have an entertaining show like "Hot in Cleveland" lead into something that scores about as many points as, well, the Cleveland Browns. Expand
