Telly’s Take
Fans don’t have to worry whether IFC will cancel or renew Portlandia for season nine. When the cable network picked up this installment, it announced this would be the eighth and final season. Will there be a spin-off or sequel of some kind? That remains to be seen, but I’ll keep an eye on things between courses of my latest feast and update this page, with any breaking news.
