ABC cancels Tim Allen comedy Last Man Standing

May 11, 2017 by Gary Collinson

TV Line is reporting that ABC has cancelled the Tim Allen headlined sitcom Last Man Standing after six seasons.

The show, which starred Allen as Mike Baxter, a conservative sporting-goods executive whose traditional values often clashed with those around him. Also featuring in the cast were Nancy Travis as Mike’s wife Vanessa, Amanda Fuller, Molly Ephraim and Kaitlyn Dever as Mike and Vanessa’s daughters, and Jordan Masterson as son-in-law Ryan.

Last Man Standing premiered in 2011, and ran for a total of 130 episodes, with the finale airing this past March. The sixth season of the show had been pulling in an average of 6.4 million viewers and a 1.1 rating in the 18-49 demo, which wasn’t enough to prevent the axe from falling.

Originally published May 11, 2017. Updated April 16, 2018.
