“Younger” gets attention for its look into the New York social circles and its attention-grabbing fashions, and that’s as it should be. After all, this is a series by Darren Star, who also brought us the delights of “Sex and the City.”
Sutton Foster stars as Liza Miller, a 40-year-old woman who’s just emerged from a failed marriage and must re-enter the work force. The only problem is that no one will even glance at her resume since she became a full-time mother nearly two decades ago. But after she’s mistaken for a 26-year-old at a bar, she decides to pass for much younger and lands a job at publishing firm Empirical Press.

"Things might have to change around here," seemed like pretty ominous words to Liza.
And in a way, they were. Despite things going very smoothly for Liza and Kelsey on Younger Season 3 Episode 2 with regard to Millennial Print and keeping Empirical alive, something tells me it's not going to last.
What did you say? Why do I always have to be such a bummer? Awww, come on. Isn't it kind of fun to imagine the ledge Liza's going to tumble over?
The more I think about it, the more I realize part of the reason we're all watching Younger is to see Liza fall off that ledge. We're all holding our collective breath, and while we breathe a sigh of relief when she skirts the inevitable once more each week, it's impossible not to go back and look at new ways her secret may come out and hurt her.

Recently, California passed an anti-ageism law that requires Hollywood industry sites like IMDb.com to remove an actor’s age upon request. In an interview with IndieWire, executive producer Darren Star (“Sex and the City,” “Melrose Place”) weighed in on the new law, which would’ve been helpful to someone looking for a second chance like Liza.
