What should you expect from the new TV shows coming this fall? Read our first impressions of ABC's 'Cougar Town,' starring Courtney Cox ...

Note: This is not a review, merely our first impression of an unfinished product. A show can go through many changes between the pilot stage and its official broadcast debut.
'Cougar Town'
Premise: Recently divorced mom Jules decides to do what every other woman of a certain age is doing -- take up a younger lover -- which embarrasses her son Travis, amuses her slacker ex and gets a thumbs up from her friends.
Cast: Courteney Cox, Josh Hopkins, Christa Miller, Busy Philipps, Dan Byrd
What Works: In an ensemble filled with comedy all-stars, Cox makes us remember why she was one of the funniest 'Friends.'
What Doesn't: The physical gags were piled on a bit thick, and it's hard to believe that such a beautiful woman (even one who's "older" and divorced) would be so desperate.
Our Excitement Level (Out of 10): 7
Premiere Date: Wed., Sept. 23 at 9:30PM ET on ABC
