What do you think are the limitations of this show? For example, did it show the range of seniors successfully aging and living full lives, etc.

I don't think this show is very balanced. It doesn't focus much attention on the 40% of the elderly who are living full lives with a good quality of life. It is very gloom and doom. I would like to see more stories like Estelle Strongin the 96 year old stockbroker. What is her secret of successful aging? This show didn't seem to ask or answer that question!
