Nathan Lane experiences the pratfalls of modern gay dating in “Mid-Century Modern,” in which he co-stars alongside Matt Bomer and Nathan Lee Graham.
HuffPost got a sneak peek at the series, which premieres Friday on Hulu, via the below clip. In it, the character of Bunny Schneiderman (played by Lane) lambasts his pal Carol (Richard Kind) for “cock-blocking” him while the two are enjoying a drink at a gay nightspot.

Billed as a queer-inclusive successor to “The Golden Girls,” “Mid-Century Modern” follows a trio of single gay men ― Bunny Schneiderman, Jerry Frank (Bomer) and Arthur Broussard (Graham) ― who decide to share a Palm Springs, California, home after the unexpected death of a loved one.
“Alice” star Linda Lavin, who died in December at age 87, completes the series’ principal cast as Bunny’s mother, Sybil. A host of guest stars, including Jesse Tyler Ferguson, Billie Lourd, Rhea Perlman and Zane Phillips, will appear throughout the 10 episodes.
