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.

What do you think? Should Freeform cancel or renew the Young & Hungry TV show for a sixth season? How long do you expect this TV series to last?
This show is so funny and smart! I just gave in and watched it a few days ago, and now I’m hooked!!! I had to go binge watch seasons 1-4!!! Please keep it going! At least till there’s a wedding! (I hope)
Please renew this show! LOVE IT
Please renew!
reneeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeew it ! amazing show
I personally love this show tho. Please have a season 6 and more. All the way from Trinidad and this show is so fun I watched out season’s 1&2 in three days.
DEFINITELY Renew!!!!
Please bring Young and Hungry back I’ve watched it from the beginning and I’ve not laugh so hard to a programme in a very long time. (This has help me through personal things) please also bring back Baby daddy these two shows are the best shows I’ve seen so far.
Renew this show! It’s one of my favorites, and I think it could last at least 2 or 3 more seasons with the on and off again romance between Josh and Gabi! Maybe a wedding or a pregnancy scare to come? So many possibilities to make it longer, the reason the rating went down is most likely because people would rather wait til it’s on Netflix so that they can binge watch or watch it when they have free time. Honestly this is such a great show and I hope it doesn’t get cancelled!
Renew-renew!! So enjoy this show and the characters!
