Matt LeBlanc is staying put on the Tiffany Network. CBS has renewed his Man with a Plan TV show for a third season. It seems Adam Burns has yet another year to “nail the job” on the home front.
A CBS sitcom, Man with a Plan stars LeBlanc as a contractor named Adam Burns. The cast also includes Liza Snyder, Kevin Nealon, Stacy Keach, Grace Kaufman, Matthew McCann, Hala Finley, and Matt Cook. When Adam’s wife, Andi (Snyder), returns to work, this old-school dad finds it challenging to up his home game with the kids. Meanwhile, he’s trying to run his business with his brother, Don (Nealon), and put up with bad advice from his father, Joe (Keach).

What do you think? Do you still enjoy the Man with a Plan TV series? Did you expect CBS to cancel or renew this comedy for season three? Sound off, in the comments.
I am so excited and looking forward to the 3rd season of Man with a Plan. I love the show, and I am a little older than the average demographics, just sayin’.
Every single actor on that show is so perfect, the casting is great. Thank you for making my day.
Our Family has been waiting for Man with a Plan to return. The cast is brilliant and the show is so funny . I feel it is one of the few comedies that CBS has left that is a keeper. Bringing in the in laws made it even more real and funny . We see some of our own family situations and how it can make you smile.
Yay! I love this show.
Please keep Man with a plan its a wonderful show… I agree their is a lot of other shows that should be cancelled instead…
My husband and I really enjoyed Man With A Plan. Why is it all the smut, cussing, disgusting shows are renewed, but those that are comical, and teach a lesson, are always cancelled??
My husband and myself enjoy Man with a Plan. We are not your usual demographic. I am 70 and my husband is 80. Maybe you should start paying attention to your older viewers. Thanks for bringing it back!
I agree. I am 74 years old and love this show. Glad it’s coming back for another season.
When is man with a plan coming back on?
Man with a Plan is a great show. I am looking forward to season 3.
We love “man with a plan” getting a little concerned if it’s coming back .
Later in the season, likely early 2019.
