The Cool Kids

New multi-camera comedy THE COOL KIDS follows a rowdy, rag-tag group of friends living in a retirement community. HANK is the leader of this motley crew, a gruff, opinionated, 21st century Archie Bunker who will go to any lengths to have a good time. His loyal, but less than helpful, friends include CHARLIE, a bumbling wanderer who constantly goes off on tangents about some bizarre, barely believable episode from his life; and SID, a fun-loving hedonist with a flair for the melodramatic. Complicating matters is MARGARET, a brash, confident woman who forces her way into their group and refuses to leave because she’s not going to take crap from anyone – especially not these three. But what unites them all is their shared belief that they’re not done yet – not by a long shot. Growing old with dignity is for chumps. These “cool kids” are determined to make the third act of the lives the craziest one yet, and are willing to break every rule in order to have fun – because, at their age, what do they really have to lose?

On her 65th birthday, Margaret doesn’t feel like celebrating. However, Hank, Sid and Charlie insist on taking her out for a “good old-fashioned young person’s night” at the local club, which leaves them all feeling older – and more hungover – than ever.

Charlie and Hank create online dating profiles, and to boost their egos, Sid pretends to be an interested woman. Of course, the plan goes awry.

Margaret is surprised to learn that Sid is not out to his visiting son and tries to convince him to come out to him. Meanwhile, Hank stubbornly refuses to admit he needs glasses, and Charlie tries to help him cheat his eye test.

Tired of “Gorgeous George” and his reign as activities coordinator, Hank backs Charlie and Margaret backs Sid for the position in the upcoming election, and it instantly turns dirty.

Hank and Margaret lose a cornhole competition to some resident cheaters and, as a result, miss out on the coveted prize – a new 65” flat screen TV. So, the gang attempts to steal the TV – which means breaking in to Allison’s office after locking her and Sid in the sauna.
