I guess I'm one of the "idiots" who actually watched the whole 30 minutes and enjoyed it. And will watch it again next week. Nope I don't watch DHW but I did watch the Unusuals and Sam.

As for the sex with husband scene she actually does feel fat which is why she doesn't want to have sex, her friend calling her a whore (she's sitting there in a nighty) is to spur her on. Later on her husband says something to her and she says "is it weird I think you're sexy" or something along that line. So I really didn't get the impression they were making jokes about older people having sex.

As for the neighbor saying she couldn't bag a younger man, he's obviously just trying to get her goat. As someone suggested in a previous post I imagine he will become of particular interest for her.

The show is funny and I'm glad Cox picked up something else so quickly. She does funny well. I never got into Dirt but she really hasn't had much luck with new series after the almighty Friends.

As for the title, it seems appropriate for the show otherwise what would they call it: 40+ woman has sex with younger man? No, I don't think so. I don't like the fact however that there isn't a term for men who date younger women. Someone should come up with something--I'm actually shocked no has by now.

@biggirlblue: There are other options, Mad Men is not called "womanizers who smoke and drink a lot at work", it's called Mad Men.
They could definitely be more creative and less offensive. That said, they probably went for offensive on purpose, because there's no way nobody in production saw that title and said "hey, I think that's a bit offensive"

I am so tempted to just say "fuck it" and buy myself a damn animal print dress or shirt or whatever. I LOVE animal prints but I am not sure I can pull them off.

@AthertonMerriweather: right? This is Frau Blücher for chrissakes! She does have a role in Inglorious Basterds though, so it's not like this is the only thing she has going on. And there is a market for clothes like this, unfortunately.

The fact that the site also says "To the ladies of the red hat society . . . " is all I need to know to stay far far away from anything Beverly Ann decides to design.

I've never tried animal prints and standing by swimming pools! But it sounds pretty fun! I think my summer plans are set now :)

Can I have a cool drink in my hand? I hope someone will clarify this. I don't want to be doing it wrong.

@BrightonShiny: You HAVE to have either a frozen or iced drink with you at all times. And a big floppy hat. And bigger sunglasses. I've stood/lain by many of bodies of water (is that the right usage of "lain?")

"V" seems to have more strong, sexy women than this "comedy". At least I hope. Come, alphabet network don't screw this up.

V! Will there be rodent snackage? I'm illogically hopeful about this show, and now that Battlestar's done I need a sci-fi fix.

As far as Cougar Town all I can say is:"Good. Lord." I hadn't seen much of Crista Miller on Scrubs this season (because I haven't seen much of Scrubs) but she is completely dead from the eyes up. Easy with the 'tox!

Cougar is dead. Its over. Dunzo! And now lets move on. This is virtually SATC meets Desperate Housewives. Its two years too late. Its cliched, starring women who have unfortunately all gone to the same terrible surgeon for their botched eye lifts and isnt funny.

That being said, Im sure some idiots will watch it, like the people who care what goes in the Jon and Kate plus 8 households. ABC cancels Samantha Who, but this gets approval, what the H?

Why do sitcoms always make married sex look like a painful, dull chore (particularly from the wife's point of view)? It's along the same vein as "only pretty people have sex": "only young, single people have sex."

Stupid. I fully intend to be banging my husband WELL into my 50s--and if I only had sex once a month I think my brain would explode.
