Telly’s Take
While Young & Hungry was originally given a season orders of 10 episodes, eventually, Freeform doubled the total order to 20. A couple of weeks before that, the cable channel decided not to move forward with the proposed spin-off. Were the two decisions related? Although the fourth season ratings saw a small increase over the previous year, will the sitcom continue to build its audience? The ratings are way down but Freeform has cancelled Baby Daddy so, that may mean the network will want to keep this show around for a sixth season. We’ll see. Subscribe to be notified of Young & Hungry cancellation and renewal news. After all, I’m young and hungry, too.
3/15/18 update: Freeform has announced the premiere date for the second half of the fifth and final season. Details here.

Please renew, love this show.
Please renew series, I am 60 years old and ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT! The cast is fabulous and flow so well together!
I can’t take it! Please don’t cancel. We’ve been waiting so long to see Josh and Gabi together! The only reason the ratings from season 4 to 5 probably went down is because keeping them apart was getting ridiculous! Now, the characters are all developed and there are so many more possible story lines plus we all want to see Gabi and Josh together!!! They are both nuts! They can be just as entertaining together as they were apart! They’re the “power couple”, a crazy, insane power couple! And Sophia hasn’t had her happy ending yet! Please don’t take this… Read more »
