Along with Baby Daddy and Switched at Birth, Melissa & Joey has been renewed for another year. Currently in its second season on ABC Family, the sitcom will be back for a third round of episodes sometime in 2013.
Melissa & Joey revolves around a local politician (Melissa Joan Hart) who hires a jobless commodities trader (Joey Lawrence) to look after her niece and nephew (Taylor Spreitler and Nick Robinson).
The early installments of the first season of Melissa & Joey proved so successful that ABC Family ended up ordering a whopping 30 episodes total. For season two, they asked for 15 installments.
The 13 second season episodes that have aired so far have averaged a 0.6 rating in the 18-49 demographic with 1.24 million total viewers. The most recent episode drew a season high in viewership with 1.63 million.
There are two episodes left in the second season with the finale set for August 29th. There’s no word on how many episodes ABC Family has ordered for season three or when they’re expected to debut.

For starters I looked up this show to see if there would be a 3rd season after watching the 1st two, so that alone says I loved it! It is truelly an awesome show, filled with humor & life lessons. I am not a t.v. junky because most shows suck & are not family friendly. Me & my 13 year old son sit here watching this show all while discussing the issues their dealing with and laughing along! Simply said ‘ It’s Great’! I wish there where more shows like this one!
i loved it !!!! good actors good script ,,, and it really makes me laugh
can’t wait to watch season 3
It’s a grown-up show, a smart show. People like Lawerence and Hart, with so many years of TV behind them, certainly know what they want to do and how to do it. Only suggestion would be to make better use if Nick Robinson. He is a very talented kid.
I think the show is great. It is nice to see a good family show to watch and the entire cast is good. Joey Lawrence and Melissa Joan Hart are veteran actors who literally grew up on television and their acting skills are better than many critics give them credit for. The kids are good too.
