TNT Picks Up Ray Romano’s Men Of A Certain Age

TNT has given a series order for Ray Romano’s midlife crisis drama Men of a Certain Age. The show has been picked up for 10 episodes to premiere later this year. Written by Romano and Mike Royce, Men of a Certain Age explores the bonds of male friendship through the eyes of three college buddies – Joe (Romano), Owen (Andre Braugher) and Terry (Scott Bakula) – who are in their 40s. Royce, who will serve as showrunner on the show, is executive producing it with Romano, Rory Rosegarten and Cary Hoffman.

The order for Men of a Certain Age comes on the heels of two similar 10-episode pickups by TNT last week – the Jada Pinkett Smith-starring medical drama Time Heals and the Jerry Bruckheimer-produced cop drama The Line toplined by Dylan McDermott.
