"Set at the Shady Meadows Retirement Community, cranky African-American Hank, flamboyant gay man Sid, confused former addict Charlie, and free spirit Margaret consider themselves "the cool kids," always looking for a way to subvert the authority of the home's rules," PTC details.

Although the show features comedy legends like Vicki Lawrence from "The Carol Burnett Show," and actor David Alan Grier of "In Living Color" and "Martin" fame, PTC asserts that "The Cool Kids" provides "stale, foul-mouthed, raunchy toilet humor, frequent foul language like 'b****' and 'a**,' and loads of references to sex and drug use."
