}}We Are Men is an American sitcom series created by Rob Greenberg starring Christopher Nicholas Smith, Tony Shalhoub, Jerry O'Connell, Kal Penn, and Rebecca Breeds. The series aired on CBS as part of the 2013–14 American television season, and premiered on September 30, 2013.[1][2][3] After the airing of two episodes, which performed poorly, CBS announced that the series had been cancelled on October 9, 2013.[4][5]

Premise

After Carter is left at the altar by his bride, he moves into a short-term rental complex, where he forms a friendship with three divorced older men.

Cast

  • Kal Penn as Gil Bartis
  • Chris Smith as Carter Thomas
  • Jerry O'Connell as Stuart Strickland
  • Tony Shalhoub as Frank Russo
  • Rebecca Breeds as Abby Russo

Development and production

On July 10, 2012, it was announced that CBS had picked up Rob Greenberg's single-camera comedy, then called Ex-Men, as the first pilot order of the 2013–14 season.[6] The show, which is written, directed and executively produced by Greenberg, centers on a young man "learning the ways of the world from the older and more experienced men in his short-term rental complex."[6] Dominic Patten from Deadline Hollywood reported that We Are Men had been around for a few years, before it was picked up.[6]

Chris Smith was cast as Carter Thomas, the young man who befriends a group of divorced men, while Kal Penn was cast as Gil Bartis.[7] On August 15, 2012, it was announced that Tony Shalhoub would play Frank, who is "a four-time divorcé who still fancies himself a ladies man".[7] Shortly after, Australian actress Rebecca Breeds joined the cast as Frank's daughter.[8] Filming of the pilot episode was pushed back to January 2013, after casting of the fourth male lead stalled. The role of Stuart was eventually filled by Jerry O'Connell.[9]

Critical reception

We Are Men was panned by critics. Metacritic gave the show an aggregate rating of 33/100; similarly Rotten Tomatoes currently has a rating of 4% (rotten) for the program.[12] Melissa Maers of Entertainment Weekly said that the show was "The male version of Sex and the City with more shirtless scenes (courtesy of Jerry O'Connell) and way less wit",[13] while The Hollywood Reporter was much more harsh, saying “‘We Are Men’ is about four single guys you wouldn't ever want to be around or be related to in any way … [it] made me feel stupid almost immediately and then bitter that I'd wasted the time.”[14] The show failed to catch an audience and actually adversely affected other programming, especially the program 2 Broke Girls. The show got the lowest rating of any premiere on CBS and was axed after just two episodes.[15]
