Keilani Fite and Marielle Limbo went to see the recent screening of Fox TV\u2019s new series, “Cooper Barrett\u2019s Guide to Surviving Life” at the AMC La Jolla 12 theater, along with some of the cast. And they’re hooked. The series, which premiered on TV Jan. 3 and online Dec. 21, centers on 25-year-old Cooper (Jack Cutmore-Scott), who little by little figures out how to cope with adult life. He and his three friends, Kelly (Meaghan Rath), Barry (James Earl) and Neal (Charlie Saxton), end up in funny and dangerous events, and they survive them together. “I think it was pretty entertaining. I think it relates to a lot of random problems that we have that aren\u2019t necessarily problems, and they emphasize it. You relate to it, because it\u2019s kind of you and your close friends hanging out doing punch stupid stuff,” Fite says. Take, for example the “lost phone” episode. “I lose my phone all the time, and I freak out all the time, just like Cooper”, Limbo says. The girls say they will continue watching at home. “You are my date for Feb. 14th, Valentine\u2019s Day. We are watching the show I\u2019m hooked on!,” Limbo says to Fite. The show airs at 8:30 p.m. Sundays on KSWB, FOX5. Cutmore-Scott says he absolutely loved filming the first season of the show. “Although acting is a very hard job, it\u2019s a lot of fun at the end of the day. It\u2019s really important that you like spending 12 to 15 hours a day at work with people that you like. We are friends playing friends, and we show on screen that we have fun,” Saxton says. Earl says that, unlike most sitcoms, their show is action packed. “We were asked, ‘What did you do this weekend?’ That weekend, we blew up a car. The crew of \u2018New Girl\u2019 said, ‘Our sink was broken.’ That is a product of going for four years and everybody has found out what works,” Rath says. The series is not only for action fans. The cast notes that everybody can find something to relate to. Saxton thinks the good heart of the show separates them from other shows, which deal with college grads and twentysomethings. “The core of all these people,” he says, “is genuinely good. It\u2019s really easy to take a show like ours and make it really cynical and have no heart. We are different because we love and we love love. We are pretty sappy.” Cutmore-Scott hopes everybody will check out the new episodes, and he adds that the first three can be found online at fox.com\/cooper-barretts-guide-to-surviving-life.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
