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?
