"Our tee-up show, if you will," says Allen of ending the season (https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/89793-last-man-standing/page/16/#comments) one episode short. Executive producer Kevin Abbott adds that he didn't think he had a finale, but then realized they could end the season on a cliffhanger.

I don't know what was planned for the episode that has not been given to us yet if we ever do get to see it, but the episode that we got two days ago for a finale in my opinion was a great way already to close out the season.

God bless you always!!!

P.S. So a ninth season is going to happen?

But not the series right?

I would think they MUST bring this back because it's not like have new shows since pilots have been cancelled.
