Men of a Certain Age

And I eventually remembered that I did stand-up comedy with a guy 30 years ago at the Comedy Cellar.

And he became a showrunner in L.A. and wrote a show with Ray Romano, co-created a show with Ray Romano called Men of a Certain Age.

Ray Romano was in it, Andre Braga, and Scott Bakula.

Well, long story short, I send the manuscript.

We have the same initials, S.B.

I do some research on him, and he was on a show called Men of a Certain Age.

His character's name was Terry.

That's my brother's name.

Hadn't spoke to him in 35 years.

We started doing stand-up comedy together at the Comedy Cellar in New York City.

He went on to become a showrunner, a writer in Hollywood, and co-created a show with Ray Romano called Men of a Certain Age.

That was the show that Ray was in, Andre Braugher, who passed away, and Scott Bakula.

Is Brittany Curran.

She had notable roles on Dear White People, Men of a Certain Age, and The Magicians, but not- nothing really since 2020.

Mm-hmm.

Noth- again, no real huge actors attached to this project.

he was in.

Men of a Certain Age.

Uh-huh.

The Bold and the Beautiful.

Well, there were a lot of synchronicities, a lot of coincidences.
