The comedy show was about two old friends that appeared to be polar opposites in many situations. One thing they agreed upon, however, is that life is short and both men vowed to live every day like it is their last, since they figured at their age, they only had "twenty good years" to live.http://www.nbc.com/NBC_First_Look/Twenty_Good_Years/.
Since the series debut, Twenty Good Years had been plagued by schedule changes before the season began, as well as receiving mixed-to-negative reviews. They had also placed fourth in its Wednesday time period and continued to slip since the first episode. On October 25, 2006, NBC announced that it was replacing the Wednesday night comedy block with specials, thus pulling Twenty Good Years from the schedulehttp://www.broadcastingcable.com/article/CA6384731.html with no plans for a return.
Meet John and Jeffrey, two complete opposites who can only agree on one thing - they only have twenty good years left to live. In spite of the differences between the two, they vow to live each day as if it were their last - without looking back and without any regrets.
John and Jeffrey?s latest experience is to go to a rock music club. To their surprise, the club?s sexy owner Jane Leeves flirts with them and invites them to an after-party. John and Jeffrey end up dating her at the same time and she offers a challenge that may be too much for them to handle.
When Jeffrey hurts his elbow in a basketball game against two younger players he refuses to let John operate because he is afraid of hospitals. This does not sit well with John because he wants a rematch against the younger players.
John does not like it when Jeffrey's ex-girlfriend Gina shows up again. He is afraid it will ruin the plans he has for him and Jeffrey.
