	Media	Author	Review
		Hank Stuever The Washington Post	"This is Cox's best gig since the end of 'Friends' and she clearly knows it, attacking the material at full tooth-and-nail"
		Ken Tucker Entertainment Weekly	"'Cougar Town' is so brashly vulgar, it's endearing"
		Robert Bianco USA Today	"For all the sex jokes (most of which are amusing), this is at heart a family comedy, with Cox completely winning as a mom trying to make herself happy without making her son miserable. Odds are that other moms can relate. Rating: ★★★ (out of four)"
		Matt Roush TV Guide	"The show's a little frantic and more than a little crude, but the jokes keep coming and many of them score in this depiction of Courteney Cox as a newly divorced and woefully insecure mom of a teenager"
		Alessandra Stanley The New York Times	"The dialogue, timing and jokes have the madcap pace and anarchic spirit of 'Scrubs', and it takes a while for Ms. Cox to recalibrate her Monica persona from 'Friends'"
		Paige Wiser Chicago Sun-Times	"This is a story of desperation, not liberation. Cox is too good for this"
		Mary McNamara Los Angeles Times	"(...) 'Cougar Town' is a crude show, built on jokes about oral sex and droopy breasts, a show in which words like 'coochie' are used with regrettable abandon"
		Maureen Ryan Chicago Tribune	"The show demonstrates that none of Cox's ample comic skills have diminished; she still has impeccable timing. But she can be such a brittle presence that she needs to be surrounded by more sympathetic characters, not by friends who are, if anything, more raunchy and manic"
