Mid-Century Modern

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 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?

The previews and trailers made me worried it would be too cheesy, but I've been pleasantly surprised. I've been bored by many of the more recent sitcoms (it's hard to love again after 'Parks and Recreation' was so perfect and so many shows feel stale or overly forced.) Mid-Century Modern feels like watching 'The Golden Girls,' 'The Nanny,' or 'Just Shoot Me' again for the first time - stupid in the best way, chock-full of hilarious little quips, and has heart without being smug about it. If you're a lover of classic sitcoms or a fan of Nathan Lane's character in 'The Birdcage,' you might consider giving this one a go, it's a lot of fun and they have some fantastic guest stars.

It's been a long time since we had a gay sitcom with a laugh track. Please renew it for season 2.

Binged through the whole season in one afternoon / easily addictive.

Yes it's a sitcom don't be a snob, it's OK to like a laugh track comedy. Some of the very best shows were from this format. Not everything has to be artsy.

Nathan Lane is at his comical best. Nathan Lee Graham and Matt Bomer are excellent. The supporting characters and guest stars funny - Richard Kind is hilarious in a couple episodes.

Easily digestible and watchable. Please Hulu give this a quick renewal. Need more episodes!!! 🙏🏻

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.
