Cougar Town	comment	Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_3'); })Cougar Town is a TBS sitcom, starring Friends' Courteney Cox. Previously, it ran for three seasons on ABC.The show initially centered around Jules Cobb (Cox), a newly divorced 40-year-old mother who tries to get back into the dating game after being out of it for 18 years. However, after roughly five or six episodes, this premise was dropped. Since then, the show has mostly focused on the various shenanigans Jules, Ellie (her snarky best friend and neighbor), Laurie (her ditzy younger colleague), Bobby (her ex-husband), Grayson (UST -ridden single neighbor), Andy (Ellie's husband and Bobby's bromantic best friend), and Travis (her 18 year-old son, the Only Sane Man) involve themselves in, ranging from morning drinking, to the glorious game of Penny Can, to a massive drop-everything $2,000 balloon chase that spans multiple episodes. Can be considered a bit of a Spiritual Successor to Scrubs, in overall tone, humor, and penchant for amazing musical selections. This isn't surprising- it has the same creator and executive producer, and also features his wife.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_2'); })Each episode has two or three plots and sub-plots, some only given 2 minutes or so. While it is surrounded with tropes, the "deadbeat dad" tends to be rather wise (and credited by the other characters as a better parent, currently than the over-involved mom) and the loser son also is not that much of a loser.TBS picked up the show for a fourth (and later fifth) season shortly after ABC cancelled it, moving to the former network—and cable—in 2013. On May 10, 2014, it was announced that TBS renewed the show for a final sixth season. They now apologize for the title.

Cougar Town / int_1b65dfad	comment	The Cameo: In the second season finale, one of the people in the background on the bar terrace is played by Danny Pudi. That is, until you notice him acting strange and realize (if you also watch Community) that it's not Danny Pudi but Abed in a brilliant, subtle piece of cross-referencing (specifically, it refers to a possibly made-up story Abed tells in "Critical Film Studies"). Also a case of Breaking the Fourth Wall. Both Lisa Kudrow and Jennifer Aniston, Cox's former female co-stars in Friends, appear in an episode each. Another Friends co-star, Matthew Perry, appeared in a season 5 episode. Moving on to someone who never appearednote but was mentioned on Friends, in the final season's "Yer So Bad" Andy and Ellie try to guess who Tom's celebrity patient is; it's Cindy Crawford, who appears As Herself in the final scene.

Bill Lawrence, between Scrubs and Cougar Town developed a pilot for a show called Nobody's Watching, where the idea was brought up to give Ted Danson a show with that same title. The fact that Ellie asserts that the show doesn't exist might be a little Take That Me about Nobody's Watching not getting picked up.

Cougar Town / int_2b7d29e1	comment	Artifact Title: Even the show knows this. The title gag on a Christmas Episode? "All I want for Christmas is a new title". Shortly followed in their episode after New Years with the resolutions "Embrace our stupid title & lose six pounds". And shortly followed after that in "Lost Children", in which Barb stops Jules and comments that she use to be one of them (a cougar). Jules replies that that's not her any more and dryly snarks that maybe she should just change her name. Same episode then has the title gag be "Do we have to do this joke forever?" In Season 2's finale, the title lasted twice as long, shooting through Florida, over California, and to Hawaii, where the line was "We'll never stop making fun of the name-" Season 3 begins with: "It's still called" above Cougar Town followed with "Yeah, we're not happy about it either." below. In the season 3 episode "Ways To Be Wicked" when Travis and his housemate Sig wonder why there is a statue of a cougar at their college ("nothing around here has anything to do with cougars!") The first episode has the local highschool mascot as a cougar and the football team bursts through a paper banner which reads: Welcome to Cougartown. Other than the initial intention for Jules to be a cougar prowling for younger men, this seems to be the only connection left (not that it ever comes up again). The title finally gets changed to Sunshine State... on the last episode of the show.

While technically everyone who doesn't live with Jules is one, seeing how her kitchen is where they usually hang out, all of them live close together and occasionally go to each other's houses. Tom is the only one of them who lives nearby, whom almost everyone dislikes at first, and whose house nobody hangs out at.

Cougar Town / int_bdc453a0	comment	Incest Subtext: It's brought up one time with Jules towards Travis. Both are squicked by this, although Jules ever so slightly less than Travis. That Jules not only loves her son, but is "in love" with him is something of a running gag. Pushed right up to the edge of truly squicky territory and certainly far enough to constantly embarrass him (like when she snuck into his apartment at 3am and spooned with him until his roommates found them… again). At one point, her boyfriend role-plays as Travis to help her get ready for a difficult conversation with him. They work through the issue, say the love each other, and then start making out. In season two, Kirsten notices that Travis' celebrity crush, Megan Fox, has long black hair and likes wearing tight jeans. Just like Jules. In season six, Jules' dad sleepwalks naked to their bed and mounts Greyson. Ellie comments that she thought if Jules ever had a threesome with a fmily member it would be Travis, Jules agrees looking disturbingly non disturbed by the idea.

Cougar Town / int_c75df49a	type	Shout-Out
Cougar Town / int_c75df49a	comment	Shout-Out: In the thanksgiving episode, Andy eats a hamburger before Thanksgiving dinner and says that it's like stretching — this was taken almost verbatim from an episode of Friends. In any other case, it would look like a complete rip off, but since Courtney Cox's the lead, we're all good. In the thirteenth epsiode of season one, Jules and Bobby can be seen watching an episode of Scrubs. In a seventh episode of the second season, Travis and Bobby share a montage to Enrique Iglesias's "Hero." The song was used for a different purpose on Scrubs. Andy is compared to Keyser Soze for his skill at manipulating women, with the episode's plot leading quite naturally to his shedding a limp at the end. In the same episode, Ellie refers to Andy as a "sensie," a term introduced on Scrubs to describe an overly-emotionally sensitive man. Ted shows up in the Season 2 Finale, and reveals that Hooch is still crazy. Wait, if they're in the Scrubs universe, does that mean that Jules' father is Bob Kelso's identical twin? And what about Ellie? Or Dr. Maddox played by Courteney Cox in the first few episodes of season 8? And Doctor John Dorian looks surprisingly like Zach Braff? Ted is worried about that, too. Really, it only way it makes sense at this point is to just theorise that Cougar Town exists all within Ted's mind, having finally jumped off of the roof after Gooch left him for Hooch. And in an episode's tag, everyone gets into a fake gun fight, with Travis groaning "I love Spaced!" as he "dies." The title gag for the Season 3 episode Down South is "I didn't know it was back on either." -Abed. The following episode Square One has the title "Welcome to Cougarton Abbey". Season 6 episode 5, Even the Losers, ends with Andy and Ellie holding hands as they stand watching their vandalism fireworks go off. Andy looks at Ellie and says, "thank you for helping me through a very strange time in my life."

"No Reason to Cry" — which contained a three minute discussion on the Diet Dr Pepper logo being on a golf outfit — featured Diet Dr Pepper ads in the show as well as the promos earlier in the night ("Tonight's all new Cougar Town is surprisingly refreshing ... just like Diet Dr Pepper!"). Unlike many other instances this is justified as Bobby is a pro golfer. It is also lampshaded early on in the discussion as Travis makes an aside, saying "Is anyone filming this?". DDP cans are seen in later episodes. Subway starts being featured a lot, too. Travis actually said he could "eat for several months with the $12 in his pocket" (paraphrased) - couldn't have been more obvious. Bobby and Travis spend an entire episode on vacation. In Target. Where Travis gushes about all the crap you can buy at Target. As part of Andy's welcoming Bobby from his golf tournament in season 6, they go buying Go Pro cameras at Best Buy.

Cougar Town / int_f9876f7e	comment	Faking the Dead: Laurie fakes her death so her sorority sisters (at the college where she doesn't go to) wouldn't miss her never going to Travis' school again.

Cougar Town / int_f9c3ecc6	type	Series Fauxnale
Cougar Town / int_f9c3ecc6	comment	Series Fauxnale: A possible example–what with the series' relative obscurity, it was somewhat up in the air as to whether or not it would be renewed.

Cougar Town / int_f9f2c33	type	RunningGag
Cougar Town / int_f9f2c33	comment	Running Gag: "Isn't her name 'Tampa'?" Jules changing the meaning of phrases (for example, "Junk in the trunk" now means emotional baggage) and Ellie approving the change ("Change approved!"), with either Travis or Grayson protesting the change. Once a season, Jules' favorite drinking glass breaks. The group give it a funeral (with Grayson again pointing out how ridiculous it is) and then present Jules with a replacement. On the sixth season Jules breaks the glass herself because she's overwhelmed that everyone she cares about is (she thinks) moving away.

Cougar Town / int_fbd285b7	type	Comically Missing the Point
Cougar Town / int_fbd285b7	comment	Comically Missing the Point: No one gets it when Ellie, to compliment someone, gives them the tip of an imaginary hat. Jules also usually doesn't get it when someone plays a little game. Also, she really can't play the portmanteau movie game (teens trapped on an island find pirate treasure: Blue LaGoonies).

Cougar Town / int_fe0330fb	type	Brick Joke
Cougar Town / int_fe0330fb	comment	Brick Joke: A staple of the show's humor. Some span a single episode, some come back a few later. One spanned several seasons: During season 1 there is an episode where the cul-de-sac is practically overrun by loose dogs with no explanation. Three seasons later Laurie and Jules reminisce about the time they lived out their favorite song lyrics including "letting all those dogs out"
