## Premise

[edit]

Dan Chase is a former CIA operative and Vietnam veteran, who 30 years ago was in Afghanistan. After killing an intruder who breaks into his home, Chase goes into hiding. He rents a room from Zoe McDonald, who becomes his forced partner while on the run.

FBI Assistant Director for Counterintelligence Harold Harper is called to apprehend Chase because of his complicated past during the Soviet–Afghan War. Working alongside Harper are his protégé, FBI agent Angela Adams, CIA officer Raymond Waters, and Julian Carson, a hit-man hired by Harper to kill Chase.

## Production

[edit]

The series was announced in July 2019, with FX ordering a pilot with Jeff Bridges cast to star.[14] In September, Jon Watts was set to direct the pilot and be an executive producer, with John Lithgow and Amy Brenneman added to the cast.[15][16] Alia Shawkat joined in October.[17] In November, Bob Iger announced that the show would air on FX on Hulu, and Austin Stowell was added to play a younger version of Chase.[18][19] In February 2020, Kenneth Mitchell disclosed he had a role in the series.[20] Stowell would be recast in March 2020 with Bill Heck, and Gbenga Akinnagbe, Leem Lubany, and E. J. Bonilla cast in main roles.[21] Navid Negahban and Pej Vahdat were cast in recurring roles in December 2020.[22]

Shooting the series was two-thirds complete when production shut down in mid-March 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[23] Production resumed in late 2020 with three episodes remaining to film,[23] but was soon halted when Bridges was diagnosed with lymphoma in October 2020 and departed for cancer treatment.[24] The show stayed in production for a short period after his diagnosis to shoot scenes from the remaining episodes that do not feature his character.[23] In September 2021, he announced his cancer was in remission. Production ultimately resumed in February 2022.[25]

The first season consisted of seven episodes.[26] The series was scored by T Bone Burnett[27] and Patrick Warren, with incidental music included Elvis Costello, Charlie Parker, Robert Plant, and others.[28]

On June 27, 2022, the series was renewed for a second season.[29] In May 2023, it was reported that filming of the second season was suspended due to the 2023 Writers Guild of America strike.[30] On December 17, 2024, the series was canceled after two seasons.[31]

## Release

[edit]

The series premiered on June 16, 2022, on FX in the United States and Canada.[32][33] It also premiered on Disney+ (Star) on July 13, 2022, in Australia and New Zealand, Star+ in Latin America and Disney+ Hotstar in India.[34][35] The second season premiered on September 12, 2024, on FX.[36]

## Reception

[edit]

### Critical response

[edit]

For the first season, the review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes reported a 97% approval rating with an average rating of 7.4/10, based on 61 critic reviews. The website's critics consensus reads, "The Old Man is just as intrepid and spiky—and derivative—as younger action heroes, with Jeff Bridges lending invaluable gravitas to this bone-crunching thriller."[37] Metacritic, which uses a weighted average, assigned a score of 72 out of 100 based on 27 critics, indicating "generally favorable reviews".[38]

For the second season, Rotten Tomatoes reported a 64% approval rating with an average rating of 6.5/10, based on 14 critic reviews. The website's critics consensus states, "Jeff Bridges and John Lithgow remain a compulsively watchable pair, but there's a nagging sense that The Old Man has lost a step in this overextended sophomore season."[39] Metacritic assigned a score of 66 out of 100 based on 9 critics, indicating "generally favorable reviews".[40]

### Ratings

[edit]

The premiere of The Old Man on June 16, with its first two episodes, became the most-watched cable series premiere since January 2021, surpassing 60 other cable dramas, comedies, and limited series.[41] It also marked the most-watched FX series debut on Hulu for its opening weekend.[42]
