    As someone Who is closer to diapers 2.0, I believe you folks have the makings of a hit.Humour is, I believe, a quickness test and most people with a well developed sense of humour like their funny to be thoughtful. good luck

    So true. This is one of maybe 5 shows that doesn`t feature three 25 year old boys. This show would definitely address something new. I like the message here.

    Powerful speech. Love the concept. It's wonderful to finally see the older generation portrayed in this fashion.

    I think this looks interesting. I’ve never watched a show with this kind of focus and think it could be quite funny. Best of luck!

    I think the concept of aging in this film is misunderstood; people do not fear the kind of aging they do when they are twenty three. When they say "Oh my god, I am aging," they are talking about the aging they do when they are thirty or sixty, comparing themselves explicitly against their previous twenty three attitudes. I worry this television show will traumatize us all and make twenty three year olds compare themselves with ten year olds and ten year olds with fetuses and spread neuroses to the young as some kind of natural anxiety. Young people do not have limited time and capacity which is why they are so beautiful. Please stop trying to destroy this beauty.

    Please don't worry about this! Our intention is to celebrate all ages in this show. Diapers to diapers! We want departure lounge to look like the United Nations under one roof. A family of nurses and caregivers and eighty year olds living together. Upstairs downstairs with this family of nuts! All ages all sexes, a funny and real look at growing up!

    Christina O is the originality Police. Great idea. would love to see more. Keep up the good work…apparently though there is no more room for old people on television. I hate the people who keep saying seen it, seen it, seen it.

    The concept seems interesting, but it slightly reminds be of Derek, a show that has already been done by Ricky Gervais. I can see potential, I think it's just going to be difficult to keep it humorous throughout the series. Good luck guys!

    Our show will be nothing like Derek...and the humor isn't hard to find. Life's funny that way.

    I like your energy, and I love the topic. I see a lot of potential for a show on aging, but I'm hard pressed to see a great deal of humor in it. I guess it holds promise for gentle laughs along the way, between some more serious moments.

    It has been my experience with “old people” that the censor button is gone and everything comes out – and I am jealous of this. There is an honesty and a freedom when you don’t have to give a f**k. I hope this is what you are planning to tap into. From your description it sounds like you want it to be real. No caricatures of ma and pa kettle – but at the same time don’t turn them into surly, smart-ass teenagers in an elderly frame. In future episodes it would be great to get a glimpse of potential characters that would be part of the show.

    Great idea to video this in front of the grave yard, nice fit with the concept. Of the many teams and directions I really think this could a great fit for Canada right now.

    I actually really enjoyed the "one man plug".
    At the end of the day, the challenge was completed, and I know a lot about where they're coming from, and I'd like to see where they come from, and where they depart to. Good job team!

    Thank you for defending the "one man plug"/

    We tried all different kinds of ideas, but nothing worked as well as Noah just passionately delivering what the heart of our show is all about.

    I really like the idea; dealing with the subject of aging in a light heart manner. After all, we will all deal with this at some time in our lives, whether we will be dealing with aging parents or our own immortality.

    They're looking for creative criticism this week so here goes! :)
    Love the concept and the name, win win! I clicked Follow!
    I would love to see a scene from your show to see just how hillarous, rediculous, heart breaking it will be.
    Feel free to return the criticism at http://wingmom.ca
    Best of luck on the Top 50!
