It debuted with Cox's character, Jules, as a something divorcee who dated younger men and quickly moved away from that to focus on her relationship with her friends. You can't just come out and do a one-man show. Cox, Hopkins and the rest of the "Cougar Town" cast have been on a whirlwind promotional tour for the show's third season, which premieres Tuesday at p. ET after a nine-month hiatus. The show wasn't on the network's fall schedule but snagged a time slot after "Work It," a comedy about guys in drags, was canceled.
Cast members have been attending viewing parties with fans, making TV appearances and tweeting about the show's return, all in an attempt to inspire viewers to tune in. Cox says some fans have been confused about the show's future, mistakenly thinking it had been canceled. It's a show about adult friendships.
In the series, Jules spends most of her time palling around and drinking red wine with her group of friends, including her ex-husband, Bobby played by Brian Van Holt. No one works much, which has been poked fun at in the show.
Everything the characters make fun of Jules for is something that co-creator and executive producer and writer Bill Lawrence has made fun of Cox for in real life, she says. We had to bring in her wine glass; we had to do her ridiculous over-the-top love for her son; had to do Busy Philipps meandering story, and I liked that we called her on it for once. We had to find a way for Brian Van Holt to be in it, even though he had moved on.
We were able to do everything for us. Speaking of Big Chuck, what was the discussion like over whether or not it should survive the season? We really do it on a whim. Were there attempts to bring Brian Van Holt back physically for the series finale? He was working [on another project], so it was just easier to work him in [via iPad]. The second we put him on an iPad, he could shoot seven days of work in one day, so we were able to make it happen production-wise.
He sat in front of the camera and did all of his lines for 33 pages, across the episodes of the season, all at once. It probably took him like an hour and a half! We knew we needed him in the final season, but he had another gig we had to work around. The honest truth is that I would be disingenuous and grossly self-aggrandizing if I was not giving huge credit to Blake McCormick and Melody Derloshon , who both were just super cool about staying the whole time.
They were nice enough to let us come back and write the finale and participate whenever we could. Photos Top cast Edit. Spencer Locke Kylie as Kylie. Eddie Alfano Robber as Robber. Michael McDonald.
