Last Man Standing returning in January with a new Thursday timeslot
-
The Tim Allen comedy was bumped from its Friday night home by WWE SmackDown. But Fox announced at its upfronts that after Thursday Night Football is done, Last Man Standing will return in January, paired with new Jason Biggs-Maggie Lawson comedy Outmatched in the 8 p.m. hour. Kim Cattrall's Filthy Rich is expected to air on Thursdays at 9 p.m. Filthy Rich's midseason premiere date is due to creator Tate Taylor filming a movie over the summer. Fox Entertainment president Michael Thorn said at the upfronts that one of the network's goals was to find a new companion for Last Man Standing, and they found one in Outmatched.
