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?
I miss the show so much that I purchased HULU and watch the seasons over and over again! It is a super awesome feel good show. Nice break in between all the CRIME DRAMAS!!
Sounds like the makings of a new network. Sitcom TV revolt. Fox rode the tails of the Bundys into the sun of success
Please, please pick up last man standing. I love the show and am still boycotting ABC for canceling the show. We all know why they canceled it. Over politics. It is a great show and still has lots of story lines left. U will get millions of viewers. Please pick the show up. I watch all the reruns on CMT. The only problem I have is that u cut out pieces of the show and never show the very end. Pleas play the whole show up to the end which leaves out a lot. Freeform also shows the reruns and… Read more »
Last man standing is one of the best sitcoms on it always made me laugh
Please have this show
When I found out that “Last Man Standing” had been cancelled, I had felt like someone had died! It was the only show that didn’t have a curse word every sentence! I hope another network picks it up! Very enjoyable show!!
A great show with good moral values. It is so typical that wholesome quality television shows get cancelled. While trashy low grade shows go on season after season. Somebody needs to pick this show up. I think Fox should pick it up.
Huge fan!!!! record all episodes. Please don’t let such a great show end.
Yes I love the show we DVR all of them, they just got better with each show. A good show not afraid of letting the kids watch like so many others. So want it back please CMT,
Soo Love This Show.
Always a Good Laugh And GREAT Life Lessons Learned
Please bring back Last Man Standing! It was one of the very few good descent shows left. Most shows nowadays have major foul language and filth in them which I don’t want to see or hear. Bring back GOOD tv!!! Bring back Last Man Standing!!!!!
I would pay for season 6 of this show. TV needs more good conservative shows like this.
I love this show! We only started watching last year, but loved it! We have now watched all of the seasons and continue to record and watch the reruns, daily!! Please, please, someone pick up this series!!
Please pick up Last Man Standing, it is a favorite of ours. It is such a good funny family show.
I was a faithful “Last Man Standing” fan. Tim Allen and Nancy Travis were perfect together. Please, Please, Please ABC renew the series!
Please someone, anyone, pick up Last Man Standing. It is a terrific family show that offer comic relief and a sense family that this country so needs.
