Fans of the Tim Allen sitcom “Last Man Standing” are rejoicing right now after Fox renewed the series for an eighth season.

‘Last Man Standing’ roared out of the gate on Fox, and has maintained its ratings dominance ever since,” said Michael Thorn, president of entertainment for Fox Entertainment. “Much of that credit goes to the incredibly funny and talented Tim Allen, not to mention Nancy, Hector and the rest of the show’s great cast. We’d like to thank Kevin, Matt and the entire crew, along with our partners at 20th Century Fox Television, for overseeing one of television’s most popular comedies. We’d also like to congratulate them all on reaching 150 episodes — a milestone that’s well-deserved.”

Deadline reported that while this will be the eighth season of the show, it is the second season that will air on Fox, as it aired for the previous six years on ABC before it was canceled. Allen also spoke out to celebrate the series’ renewal.

“Hard to believe ‘Last Man Standing’ hits 150 episodes this week and it gets better with another upcoming season at Fox,” Allen said. “Great news for all of us who are creating these stories and working our pants off to make you all laugh. It’s another big high-five to the legions of loyal fans who have faithfully kept us front and center and huge on the radar. Thanks to our family at Fox, who continue to make us feel so at home. Man, if we keep this up, they might have to call our show: ‘Last Man Unable to Stand.’”

On the show, Allen plays Mike Baxter, a conservative father of three daughters. “Last Man Standing” is one of the only shows on television that revolves around a conservative character, making it very popular for millions of Republicans who don’t see many positive representations of themselves on television. On top of that, the show is hilarious to watch, so we’re very excited that it will have another season!
