Tim Allen and company have had a successful Friday night run with Last Man Standing on ABC. The sitcom has more than enough episodes for syndication so, how long will it continue? Will it be cancelled this time around, or will it be renewed for a seventh season? Stay tuned.
On Last Man Standing, Mike Baxter (Tim Allen) is the marketing director of the Outdoor Man sporting goods stores. He has a wife and three daughters so it can be a little tough to stand his ground and stay in touch with his inner man. The rest of the cast includes Nancy Travis, Amanda Fuller, Molly Ephraim, Kaitlyn Dever, Christoph Sanders, Hector Elizondo, Flynn Morrison, Jordan Masterson, and Jonathan Adams.
The ratings are typically the best indication of a show’s likelihood of staying on the air. The higher the ratings (particularly the 18-49 demo), the better the chances for survival. This chart will be updated as new ratings data becomes available — typically around 11:30am EST/8:30am PST. Refresh to see the latest.

Last year comparison: The fifth season of Last Man Standing averaged a 1.21 rating in the 18-49 demographic with 6.74 million total viewers (live + same day ratings).
Note: These are the Live + Same Day Ratings which include “live” viewing plus delayed DVR viewing, up until 3am local time that same night. Ratings marked with an “*” are the fast affiliate ratings and will be updated with the Live+SD numbers when they are made available. Typically, networks get paid for C+3 ratings which includes DVR viewing within three days of the original airing when commercials are watched. Those numbers are rarely released to the press.
What do you think? Do you still like the Last Man Standing TV series? Do you think it should be cancelled or renewed for a seventh season?
5/10 update: ABC has cancelled Last Man Standing after six seasons.


It’s extremely disappointing to hear that Last Man Standing is being cancelled. My husband and I LOVE this show!
What happened to “freedom of speech?”
Well, you just lost another viewer…
One of the few shows that my husband and I both enjoy watching. Very disappointed in ABC!
Best sitcom ever, loved the everyday frankness. Great group that related very well with viewers. Seattle radio said the reason was because political view didn’t agree with network CEO.
This really sucks. First a very funny show second the left can’t handle any jokes when the liberal shows have president bush and now Trymp endlessly. Third to have a tv company bow down to the left is not only horrible it is scary. They should be ashamed of themselves. REEP WHAT YOU SOW.
I have pretty much eliminated network TV shows except for this show. We watch the reruns on other networks. It’s a clean show, great family topics and the writing is so creatively funny. I hope someone else buys it and keeps it going!
How unbelievably sad that you would cancel a show that doesn’t thrive on violence or undressing each other or using vulgar innuendos to make ratings. The characters are real and endearing to their viewers. I am a professional who will not be watching ABC anymore!!!
Exactly right.
Keep the Last Man standing. I love the back and forth political between the Liberal and conservative mindsets. At least they love each other. Another season.
They have the father conservative and the son in law liberal so it balances it self. ABC just could not take the liberal crap
can not believe they would cancel this show. the best show on tv that deals with todays issues and can make you laugh
Hopefully the show is picked up by another network. ABC is making a major mistake.
please renew last man standing – it’s the only show i really look forward to watching for a good genuine laugh. a show i can watch with my family and enjoy every week. we are extremely disappointed that this show would be canceled with such good ratings. please reconsider and don’t cancel our favorite show.
Come on ABC . Last man standing is the best my family watches it every Friday night. Cancel DR.KEN. Hope CBS picks it up or another channel. Tim Allen is the best. KEEP LAST MAN STANDING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! KEEP LAST MAN STANDING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! CANCEL DR .KEN INSTEAD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ABC.
Why would you cancel this great show? It’s all political that’s not a reason to cancel a good family oriented show. Keep those horrid shows that show violence against America but cancel the best show on TV. It doesn’t promote you libtards that’s why. We won’t watch anything on ABC. Renew the show. Your rating are going to suffer bigtime. People don’t care about your other shows.
It’s never too late to correct bad decision. I know viewers watch faithfully. Hope this program is renewed.
I love this show. I believe there are many conservatives out there or Trump wouldn’t have won. This is yet more liberal media carp and I hope ABC’s overall ratings go down.
The words of his favorite man Donald Trump you’re Fired.
