Will there be a future for Last Man Standing? Earlier, we reported CMT was in talks to pick up the cancelled ABC TV show. Now, according to The Hollywood Reporter, CMT has reached a decision regarding the Tim Allen sitcom.
In May, ABC cancelled Last Man Standing after six seasons. The comedy centers on Mike Baxter (Tim Allen), a marketing director for the Outdoor Man sporting goods stores who lives with his wife and 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.
Despite its record of good ratings and successful syndication performance, CMT has passed on Last Man Standing. According to THR, talks between the network and the series’ studio, 20th Century Fox Television, broke down over the show’s cost.
However, the cast of Last Man Standing are still under contract through the end of June, so there’s still a slim chance that the sitcom could be saved.
What do you think? Are you a fan of Last Man Standing? Which network do you think should pick up the cancelled show?
this was always a good show. I hope another network steps up to the plate and get it back on!
I CERTAINLY HOPE THIS SERIES WILL BE PICKED UP BY SOMEONE. IT IS THE BEST COMEDY THERE IS ON TV I AM SO DISGUSTED BY ALL THE VIOLENCE & CRUDENESS THAT KEEPS APPEARING ON TV . TIM ALLEN & CAST ARE SUCH NATURALS. THE TIMING OF THESE ACTORS IS SUPER!
One of my favorite tv shows. This excellent show get cancelled yet tv garbage shows get renewed. A great family show and cast!
This is one of our favorite shows!! They can say it’s not his religious and conservative views but I think it is just that. Please some network pick it up. Why don’t they cancel that horrible Samantha B show?? I cannot even stand the commercials for it. So offensive. And the view for real?? This show was funny and light hearted. I loved it.
please make more seasons of this show it is a good family show.
We really enjoyed every episode. Tim Allen is always funny and the writing was great. Good cast too.
Yes I will watch season 7 as long as it stays on the path its on when it was on abc.
