Final season -- 13 episodes. Is there anyone left watching this or does no one in this forum care anymore?

I stopped watching Cougar Town when they went to TBS. Not sure whyI used to really enjoy it. I may just watch the last season just for the hell of it.

I think that I am caught up with the latest episode, and I'll watch the last season, but possibly not as it airs. Not a real burning need to watch week to week.

Still watching, still enjoying. Bummer that Brian Van Holt (Bobby) left the show. He couldn't suck it up for 13 more?

I still like the show and will be watching this last season.
I love the cul-de-sac crew and how goofy they can get. Although the Travis/Laurie relationship still feels a little weird and I'm not sure how the absence of Bobby Cobb will affect the show. He was the source of a lot of the laughs.

Yeah, Bobby will be missed. Be interesting to see how they handle it. Watched the premiere last night and it was so-so. Also, Cox looks different this season. Not sure if it's natural aging or some type of cosmetic surgery.

Im still watching and will be there till the end.
The show lost something in the move to TBS. Not sure what it was. It's enjoyable, just not as funny.

I thought I read that Bobby would be appearing in one episode this season and it would be the first episode. I guess not. Maybe he'll show up in the final episode?
I guess Bobby's absence is good for Tom making him a full time cast member now. I think the character of Andy will be pretty lost without Bobby around.
Courtney Cox did look different...maybe just older.

I'm in the same boat. I'm glad the show got a second life, but it just hasn't been as 'laugh out loud' funny for me since returning on TBS. I think now that everyone is comfortably in the group together, it lost a bit of the edge somehow. Like Ellie and Laurie's frenemy thing or the way Grayson was sort of awkward around everyone. They still do the same sort of interactions but it's more of going through the motions than actual character interplay.

So I guess we did get a farewell episode for Bobby. I wonder if they just shot this episode first even though it was aired second. I wonder if he still might show up in the final episode.
This has to be the scripted show with the most blatantly obvious product placement (Best Buy/Coors). They are pretty shameless about it. At least on NBC's Chuck it was somewhat organic and funny.
I'm guessing that Andy becomes the de facto nanny for the new Bobby Cobb.

^ yeah, the product placement is pretty laughable. Looked like they were on a soundstage for the Best Buy one.
All in all though, was a decent send-off for Bobby. They made sure to include penny can, the boat and golf cart all in the episode.

I had zero idea that Bobby had left the show. It's too bad that he couldn't suck it up for the last 13 episodes.

Just saw the second episode and got the full effect of how stupid it seems that Bobby is moving away now just as his first grandchild is born.

Honestly it's probably best for his grandchild that Bobby not be around to influence him in any way.

I thought it was a pretty disappointing season overall. The episodes just weren't that great. The absence of Bobby and more of Tom was a part of it, but it felt like whatever spark was there in past seasons wasn't there this time around. Still enjoyable, but I'd say it was the weakest season.
The finale wasn't that great laugh-wise, but it was a good ending to the series.

I only watched the first 3 or 4 of this season, but I'll catch up. The show just wasn't that great anymore, and definitely wasn't anywhere close to appointment TV.
