Telly’s Take
Will FOX cancel or renew MasterChef Junior for season seven? It looks all but officially renewed, as they began casting the junior home cooks for a seventh installment back in December of last year.

What do you think? Are you happy the MasterChef Junior TV show was renewed for season seven and season eight? How would you feel if FOX had cancelled this TV series, instead?
I love to watch the talented boys and girls cook their incredible dishes. I would love to see you add glass or clear plastic in the rail on the second floor though, makes me nervous every time I see the kids hang on it. But again, love the show!
PLEASE DONT CANCEL!! WHOLE FAMILY LOVES WATCHING THIS SHOW!! MOTIVATES KIDS IN SO MANY WAYS!!!
I’d love to continue watching this. The past winners have inspired me to watch more when it comes to anything coming out of the kitchen. Please don’t cancel the show! Keep the seasons coming!
Pls don’t cancel the mc jr. It was so fun to watch such a young age that can cook better than mine. Looking forward to watch another season

The press release gives you all the shows that air from summer 2018 until May 2019. If you look at the 2017-18 press release it’s exactly the same. This means that new seasons of Masterchef Junior and Showtime at the Appolo will air sometime between now and May 2019. The reason that Love Connection, Beat Shazam, SYTYCD and The Four are on the press release is because they were scheduled to air during summer 2018.
