CBS apparently has no more plans for Matt LeBlanc. The network just announced they’ve cancelled the Man with a Plan TV show so there won’t be a fifth season.
The Man with a Plan sitcom stars LeBlanc as an old-school contractor named Adam who is trying to adapt to the demands of modern family life. Now Adam and his wife, Andi (Liza Snyder), are running a house-flipping business with Adam’s quirky brother Don (Kevin Nealon) and unlikely friend Lowell (Matt Cook), with a surplus of input from Adam’s other family and friends.
Airing on Thursday nights, season four of Man with a Plan is averaging a 0.73 rating in the 18-49 demographic and 6.23 million viewers. Compared to season three, that’s a 16% decrease in the demo ratings and a 17% increase in general viewership. That makes Man with a Plan one of CBS‘ top-rated comedy series for the 2019-20 season.
With decent ratings, it’s unclear why Man with a Plan was cancelled. However, it’s believed that the series is an expensive one to produce so, the cost may have played a major factor in the decision.
What do you think? Do you watch Man with a Plan? Would you have watched season five of this CBS comedy series?
My family is very disappointed that Man with a Plan was cancelled! We love this show and watch it together. The actors are hilarious and the writing is catchy, fun and relatable for all ages. Please reconsider – this is a great show!
I’m sorry that Man with a Plan was cancelled. I really loved the show and looked forward to watching it. The show was funny and and uplifting. I love anything Matt Leblanc is in. So sorry I won’t see it anymore.
One of the best comedies on tv!! Would definitely watch
Season 5! Love all the actors on that show!
If you brought this show back in the fall and kept it on consistently it would have a better chance. It’s too sporadic , you forget about it during the long winter months. I think it’s a quality show with good actors, it definitely has potential to be a must watch if it was given half a chance. Oh btw don’t discount baby boomers in your demographic, we love tv , and satcoms were what we were brought up on! And we still drive all the financial markets!!
I totally agree!
YES! Agree!
MWAP got robbed with a late start this season. Please bring it back!
Love the show
Wish it were renewed
Our family is disappointed, this is one of the only shows we could watch together that wasn’t inappropriate for our son. It was funny and we looked forward to it. Would be great if they decided to bring it back!
Best comedy on tv why would you cancel it
Can’t believe you cancelled Man with a Plan. It is one of the best and funniest shows around. I don’t know what you are thinking! Please bring it back!!!!!!!!!
Hey CBS! WHY? Man with a plan was excellent comedy! See if another network will pick up the series. Stupid move CBS!
I❤️the show Man with a Plan!! The reason the ratings are down is because you moved it around and waited 4ever for it to come back on. It was a great show to follow The Neighborhood. The topics were funny and quirky and easy to relate to. CBS you are quickly becoming a disappointment. Are you run by ABC??
I am so very upset that CBS has cancelled Man with a Plan… their excuse… too expensive ! Give me a break. You only have a few sets where all the scenes take place. Other than the regular actors , you are not having big name Actors as guest stars. I looked forward to seeing this show every week. It is funny without being stupid or slap stick in manner. The show in addition to being funny had heart. All the actors were well cast for their rolls! CBS you were abt to be crossed off my Viewing list! Now… Read more »
I loved Man With a Plan. I was so shocked to see that it was ending. Even my husband likes it and he doesn’t watch sit-coms. Hopefully another next work will pick it up because it’s too good to end.
We are shocked about the cancellation of Man with A Plan. We loved that show. Had it with CBS so, SO LONG!
Ditto!
Where do I start? The script is genius, the cast ensemble is perfect, the script is fast paced. I don’t watch many sitcoms, & usually I write them off if there is a laugh track added, (denotes low mentality if we have to be told when to laugh…it’s insulting!) however, Man w/ Plan breaks those stereotypes, the actors deliver fast-paced punchlines, the writing is quick-witted, Liza & Matt have a great chemistry, (she is very much his comedic equal!) Kevin Nealon gives credibility to the series with his history & comedic resume! In short…reconsider your decision to cancel this series… Read more »
