ABC is sticking with Last Man Standing. Deadline reports the network has renewed the Tim Allen sitcom for a sixth season.
Yesterday, we reported that ABC has also renewed Last Man Standing‘s Friday night companion, Dr. Ken, for a second season.
The renewal news isn’t that much of a surprise. Earlier, Allen tweeted that ABC was interested in a sixth season of the family comedy, which also stars Amanda Fuller, Christoph Sanders, Flynn Morrison, and Hector Elizondo.
Season five of Last Man Standing held steady in the ratings, earning an average of 1.21 in the 18-49 demo and 6.743 million viewers. Comparatively, season four averaged a 1.27 rating in the 18-49 demo, with total of 6.85 million viewers.
ABC confirmed the renewal on Twitter today:

To bad you blew it with FOREVER!
Yes I am elated!
Started watching the reruns of ” Last Man Standing ” on Hallmark. And I have truly enjoy the show. I didn’t realize that the show is still on and in it’so 6th season. I am looking forward to watching the current season. I hope that ABC doesn’t cancel the show now that I have discovered the show and look forward to watching it. Which seems to happen to all the good shows that are worth watching. I hope it continues for many years to come. It has good story lines, excellent cast. It’s a good family show.
This is one of the best shows on TV. More a family show than others. I am 70 and I appreciate the storylines and Mike Baxter’s views. We love this show. Have always been a fan of Tim Allen. Nancy Travis is wonderful in her role…enjoyed her in Becker, too.
We love Last Man Standing. We discovered it with returns on CMT and can’t wait until the new season to watch it. Don’t know how we mssed it!!
Yay!! I love Last Man Standing!! I’ve been watching reruns on other channels and love it!
Yay! Thank you ABC! I found “Last Man Standing” on the Hallmark and CMT channels earlier this year. I had no idea it was still being broadcast in the regular lineup and was pleased to find current shows on Fridays. This is a fabulous show! Tim Allen has a true talent and gift for sitcoms and the cast is excellent. 🙂
Yeah! It’s my husband and my favorite show. Funny and sweet, the perfect cast.
It’s my favorite show!! So glad it’s coming back for season six. Tim Allen is hilarious.
I am glad that ABC has picked it up for the sixth season. This is one of my shows I look forward to when I get home from work on Friday nights.
I like the one liners that Eve comes up with when called for. I like the dumbness with Kyle and Mandy. Come to think of it the whole cast is phenomenal.
Thank you ABC for renewing, let’s hope for more seasons!
I am so glad Last Man Standing will be returning no matter what Tim Allen does it is “AMAZING” and this is the only show on TV that i watch the cast is perfect.I feel Last Man has some of the best one liners and this is the kind of show we need more of in today’s world but again there is only one Tim Allen.My day has just been made knowing it will be returning thank you ABC.
