Bullz-Eye’s Will Harris reviewed the Men of a Certain Age first season DVD for the series and said the following:

The tone of “Men of a Certain Age” is very much that of a dramedy, but if you’re looking for the funniest episode of the season, there’s no contest: it’s “Go with the Flow,” where Joe goes on his first proper date since his divorce and gets a black eye in the process. Henceforth, you will never be able to hear the words “leg cramp” without laughing yourself silly.

There’s no excuse for the fact that “Men of a Certain Age” only pulled in a single Emmy nod in its first season. Kudos to Braugher for getting noticed, but the series as a whole deserves recognition: the cast is fantastic, and the writing is, too. The show may be slightly out of place on TNT, given that the network’s other series tend to be more action-driven, but hey, they put it on their air, so kudos to them for recognizing its excellence.

It’s a glowing endorsement for a marginalized series, though Andre Braugher’s Emmy should bring it a little more attention. The show has been renewed for a second season, set to premiere November 29th.
