Last Man Standing is an American sitcom created by Jack Burditt and directed by John Pasquin, and Victor Gonzalez for the American Broadcast Company (ABC) premiering for the first time on October 11, 2011, and later airing on FOX.
The series originally ran on ABC from 2011 to 2017 for six seasons and entered syndication in 2015. Despite being ABC’s second-highest rated sitcom for the 2016–17 season, the network declined to renew Last Man Standing for a seventh season.
In May 2020, Fox renewed the series for a ninth season, which made its debut on Sunday, January 3, 2021, at 9:30 P.M, with a set of 21 episodes.
What is the “Last Man Standing” about?
The show follows Michael Martin “Mike” Baxter (Tim Allen), who is a father of three trying to maintain his masculinity in a world dominated by women.
A series of time jumps finds Mike & Vanessa with two new grandchildren, as well as Mandy and Kyle living with them. Mike accidentally-on-purpose gets involved when Vanessa and Mandy clash over Vanessa’s “helpfulness.” Meanwhile, at Outdoor Man, Chuck desperately hopes its last call on Ed’s mixology happy hour.
“I’ve been one lucky dude to have been part of Last Man Standing,” Allen said in a statement at the time. “I so appreciate the incredible support from our fans over this near-decade of work. As we approach the ninth season, I just admire and feel grateful for all the hard work our wonderful cast and crew have done. We had all considered to end the show after last season, but together with Fox, we decided to add a year so we could produce a full season to create the gentle and fun goodbye. I’m looking forward to a memorable and hilarious final season.”
Alas! Season 9 is the Final Season of “Last Man Standing”.
