Synopsis

Successful young businessman David (Johnathan McClain) decides to leave the rat race of New York City behind and move into his parents' (George Segal and Jessica Walter) Florida retirement home to reconnect with them, re-evaluate his life and live the dream of retirement that so many are working toward.

Once there, he settles into the carefree retired lifestyle or, as his hedonistic Dad describes it, "like college in slow-motion."

Chris Case is the writer for Retired at 35 and serves as executive producer along with Michael Hanel and Mindy Schultheis.
