Clásicos modernos

I don't understand why people don't get the jokes or the fun. There are so many dark things on tv. It's nice to turn on one thing about friends, family and love. It's a breather from all the true crime, depressing documentaries and the news which is mostly horrific. No one makes fun shows anymore. If they are funny it's because you're laughing at someone's misery on reality tv. I like the show because when I get home I just need a cleanse from all the world drama. Just 30 minutes when I can just decompress and this show does it for me. I just hope they do not cancel it because it is not getting critical praise. It's a 30 minute sitcom. Does anyone who posts these reviews remember what those are?

Whenever I watch a multicam sitcom for the first time in a while, it always takes a minute to not feel like the jokes are forced and in your face but this one settles in really nicely. Push through the first episode and its storyline setup and you'll probably appreciate it.

Some jokes are cliche but many are very very funny and I enjoy that the humour isn't so clean and conservative. It can be very funny when characters drop the f-bomb and talk about real and relatable gay topics. It also features a great cast with some very recognisable sitcom actors in each episode.

I've easily and enjoyably binged the whole season in one day and would happily watch a season 2.

With everything going on in the Country today it's refreshing to have a show like this. Mid-Centry Modern is like a 90's sitcom with a laugh track, great acting and fun little stories. Mat Bomer is adorable as always and Nathan Lane is a class act in this role. So sad to see that Linda Lavin is in it and not here with us anymore and is exactly what this show needed.i totally recommend Mid-Century Modern bright sets, witty humor, great writing and a realistic look at how gay culture is really like. If you want to just sit back and relax this is the show for you. The Golden Girls of the century.

EP1 was a little overloaded with off color jokes IMHO, but by EP2 it settled into standard sitcom comfort food. I love seeing Linda Lavin having fun in her role. The other actors are great, and everyone is likable. I'm glad I gave it more time. This show gives me a little bit of a meta vibe like "Hot In Cleveland", in that you are kind of expected to know who the actors are and be in on the fun. I've seen some reviewers having negative thoughts about Matt Bomer's involvement, but coming from someone who had no idea who he was I think his character is really endearing and fun. This is after all supposed to be fun. I like this show and I hope it gets a second season.

I really love this show! It brought me right back to being with my nana watching The Golden Girls! We need more sitcoms like this, something that is fun and easy to watch. I don't understand the bad reviews at all. How can you not like something so special? I spent the majority of my day prepping my families favorite dinner and watching Mid Century Modern made the day fly by. I LOVE the cast and can never pass up a Ryan Murphy production. Nathan Lane, Matt Bomer and Nathan Lee Graham should be so so proud. This show made me laugh and cry (RIP Linda Lavin) and just made me happy. We need more happy, bring on season 2!
