Big Age

By: Kenya Barris, Danny Segal, Isaac Schamis, Anna Donnella

Narrated by: Jenifer Lewis, Cedric the Entertainer, Niecy Nash-Betts, Diarra Kilpatrick, Miles Brown, P.J. Byrne, Sophie Hayden, Nana Visitor, Michael Harney, Jim Meskimen, Jane Gennaro, Ezra Knight

From visionary creator Kenya Barris (beloved TV sitcom Black-ish and the podcast Unusual Suspects). Starring comedy legends Jenifer Lewis, Cedric the Entertainer, and Niecy Nash-Betts, Big Age follows recently retired couple Dot and Butch Watts' reluctant relocation to their new Floridian home, Sunset Gardens, a senior community that is anything but relaxing.

In Barris' retirement community, Dot and Butch encounter a parade of unforgettable personalities pushing their fifty-year marriage to the limit. There's Ethel (Nash-Betts), Butch's flirtatious ex-flame; spiritually possessed neighbors; pesky pill-pushing couples; and the ferociously competitive Stevenator.

Through its blend of outrageous comedy (key party, anyone?) and touching revelations, Big Age explores what it means to grow older without growing old at heart. As the Watts learn to embrace their quirky new world, they discover that senior living can be delightfully thrilling—if you let it. Crank up the volume and buckle in; growing old is not for the faint of heart.

A good laugh

I binged this series so hard. it was over way too soon. I want more.

Hilarious truth.

When you can laugh at aging and the next life chapter. It gets no better. This had me laughing in my car. Great entertainment. 🦋💕🍀

Cute & Funny listen

I listened for a quick refresh between some heavy reads. It was great to hear a cast of familiar voices. The story was corny and cute, but realistic.

Fun and entertaining

Interesting story. Wasn't sure where it was going but it was different and kept my attention. Definitely worth a listen. The characters were great and each held their own.

Movie into a TV series sitcom!!

Listened all in one sitting! This could definitely be a book based film/movie premiere, then a TV series sitcom of endless episodes. Yes, it was really that good and brilliantly presented as an audiobook! Great read/listen. Thank you.
