Manchild is a British television comedy / drama series that ran for two seasons on BBC Two between February 2002 and April 2003 with seven episodes in Season 1 and eight episodes in Season 2.

The show starred Ray Burdis (Gary), Nigel Havers (Terry), Anthony Head (James) and Don Warrington (Patrick) as four successful fifty-something men dealing with different problems such as marriage and children or life after divorce, a succession of (younger) girlfriends, and the problems of how to spend their wealth.

An American pilot of the series has been produced by Showtime, starring James Purefoy, Kevin Smith, John Corbett and Paul Hipp. Though according to Kevin Smith (as stated in one of his SModcasts), Showtime decided to shelf the series, to make way for more appealing programming.
