I have known for a long time that TV shows and movies are made to promote an agenda, and that entertainment and profit are secondary.

It would be great if a cable channel picked up the show, with private production money from folks with similar values.

Because it was on ABC, I never saw it as I don’t watch the networks.

But I saw reruns on a cable channel and was very impressed and entertained.

Every liberal is a violent totalitarian thug.

Yeah maybe Fox will pick it up for the late night replacement for Red Eye!

I've watched the earlier shows in reruns for years and loved them. But over the last season or two, the new shows are just not the same.
Character development seemed frozen in time ... each show the same as the last one, etc.

Liberal viewers are the most desired advertising demographics.
Young, female, ethnic: marketeers pay more for these viewers for the same reason the Dems appeal to them- they’re suckers.

And ‘free’ TV gets ALL it’s money from marketers.

I thought this was a joke but apparently it's true.

Fox: 'Last Man Standing' canceled despite high ratings

So they cancel a hit show watched by 8.1 million mostly Trump voters?

The cancellation by ABC of Tim Allen’s hit comedy “Last Man Standing”

I discovered this show several months ago in reruns and have looked forward to seeing more shows.

Just out of curiosity, what are the names of other popular ABC sitcoms?

For what it’s worth, I’ve almost completely stopped watching network TV, whether it’s for entertainment or news. I will occasionally watch the travel channel or some kind of “educational” TV. The only news I occasionally watch is One America News. Every network program, Fox News included, has an agenda that seems diametrically opposed to my view of the world and belief system. I am getting old and I have developed a lively hatred for the press and TV networks. The Media in general have become Public Enemy #1.

I gave up on the boob-toob almost ten years ago and consequently have never seen this show. I wasn’t even aware of it until someone referenced it a couple of weeks ago. I enjoyed Tim from the “Tool Man” days and am sorry that I missed it.

No matter - the network will replace it with a generic sitcom featuring a variety of social misfits and degenerates who all happen to be committed leftists.

Let the laugh-track commence!

If Democrats can’t silence conservatives, then they must be destroyed. It’s a psychopathic thing.

Actually looks like a perfectly reasonable cancellation. They’ve already hit the syndication line, every year a show gets more expensive (contracts only go up), and ratings had slipped nearly 25%. The trend lines are bad.
