    On TV, Single, Middle-Aged Women Are Aliens

    "It's girls-gone-wild feminism for 40-somethings. It's ridiculous and belittling and it stinks of another round of backlash… All the most cartoonish aspects of boorish middle-aged masculinity… [Courteney Cox's character is] so very pitiful." — Judith Warner. We suspected. [NY Times]

    Critics say Courteney Cox is a good actress, but even she can't make the stale, raunchy humor of Cougar Town - which premieres tonight - work. Unless, of course, viewers, like Cox's character, tend to think with their "coochie cooch." More »

    Cougar Town "About As Subtle As A Kick To The Groin"

    From Variety's review: "OK, so maybe Cox's character, Jules, hasn't gotten laid in awhile, but the notion that she'd be off-putting to men hardly matches her trainer-toned body and proves more laughable, unfortunately, than anything in [the script]." [Variety]
