Twenty Good Years

Twenty Good Years is an American sitcom television series created by Michael Leeson and Marsh McCall, that aired on NBC from October 11, 2006, until November 1, 2006. The series starred Jeffrey Tambor, John Lithgow, Heather Burns and Jake Sandvig.

John Lithgow plays John Mason, a surgeon forced into semi retirement, while Jeffrey Tambor was Jeffrey Pyne, a judge. The comedy show was about two old friends that appeared to be polar opposites in many situations. One thing they agreed upon, however, is that life is short and both men vowed to live every day like it is their last, since they figured at their age, they only had "twenty good years" to live. On May 14, 2007, the series was officially canceled by NBC.

Since the series debut, Twenty Good Years had been plagued by schedule changes before the season began, as well as receiving mixed to negative reviews. It had also placed fourth in its Wednesday time period and continued to slip since the first episode. On October 25, 2006, NBC announced that it was replacing the Wednesday night comedy block with specials, pulling Twenty Good Years from the schedule with no plans for a return.
