Last Man Standing doesn’t look like it’s slowing down any time soon. Deadline reports the ABC sitcom is performing strongly in syndication.
The family comedy follows sporting goods store employee Mike Baxter (Tim Allen), his wife, and their three daughters. The cast also includes Nancy Travis, Amanda Fuller, Molly Ephraim, Kaitlyn Dever, Christoph Sanders, Hector Elizondo, Flynn Morrison, Jordan Masterson, and Jonathan Adams.
Distributed by Twentieth Television, Last Man Standing was the only off-network comedy to premiere in syndication this fall. And so far, the show has proven a hit on Tribune stations and Hallmark, as well as Freeform and CMT.
For the week of December 5th, the comedy placed fourth out of the 19 comedies in broadcast syndication, right after The Big Bang Theory, Modern Family, and Two and a Half Men. In all, the series’ syndication viewership has grown 43% since its September launch. Could all this success suggest a season seven renewal for the ABC sitcom?
Currently, season six of Last Man Standing is doing well in the ratings, earning an average of 1.12 in the 18-49 demo and 6.212 million viewers. Strong syndication ratings usually lead to more seasons, but we’ll have to wait and see if ABC feels the same way.
What do you think? Do you watch Last Man Standing? Do you think it should be renewed?
I watched every morning from 7:00 (7:30 on Monday) until 9:30 a.m. M-F. Now it’s not on. If they don’t put it back on Freeform, I will no longer watch Freeform, ABC or any other Disney associated program. There are more people in this country than liberals, and our dollars speak louder.
Love this show. Family show. I was so disappointed that there was not going to be a 7th season. For all those fans like myself and my 3 sons keep Last man Standing on the air.

Not many comedy shows that can make you laugh out loud , but this one does. Please bring it back! Really enjoy. Tim Allen is the best not just those politically correct lines. And it it is balanced with the other side of the road.
