Cougar Town Recap: Series Premiere

at .

Last night, Courtney Cox brought a whole new kind of sexy cougar on ABC's debut of the new Bill Lawrence sitcom, Cougar Town.  So was the gorgeous forty-something former friend able to make cougars funny?

Well based on the pilot, we have some mixed feelings.  Both Cox and Christa Miller, who plays her best friend, Ellie, were amazing in their roles and provided plenty of laughs.  Meanwhile, no one else from the rest of the cast really won us over.
