Mid-Century Modern – Season One [2025] on Hulu / Disney Plus

Mid-Century Modern has all the potential to be a modern-day Golden Girls. The closest we get to an iconic 80’s TV sitcom in 2025.

Starring Nathan Lane, Matt Bomer, and Nathan Lee Graham, the show has a lot of potential, and juice, for at least five seasons. With old fashioned canned laughter, short sentences, dense humour and even the number of characters living in a single home. This is truly revolutionary for an 80’s inspired sitcom

Even though I’ve never been to Palm Springs, when Mid-Century Modern leans into its location, it finds the fun that may be missing from other, more generic situations. Though gay audiences are sure to find more to relate to across Mid-Century Modern as a whole, the catty, often random humour finds enough of a sweet spot to cross into a territory of universality.

In fact, even when it leans into several stereotypes of the LGBTQ+ community, it’s all done in good humor and with a bit of flair. Each character is a reflection of one of the Golden Girls, or a combination of them. No spoilers here but I can’t wait for the next season! Give us more Hulu/Disney Plus!

Should You Watch It?

It’s irresistible. It’s an oasis of joy. Even when the corny situations are clearly beneath them, the show balances its uproarious off-color saltiness with a squishy sentimentality that’s so old-school it’s almost refreshing.
