FXX wants another season of the adult comedy series Man Seeking Woman, renewing the show for a third season. Season two recently wrapped up, increasing its ratings over season one by 2%. The ratings were high enough to warrant another 10 episode season which will air in early 2017, according to the network.

Man Seeking Woman was created by Simon Rich and stars Jay Baruchel, Eric Andre, and Britt Lower. Rich wrote the short stories the TV series is based on and serves as the showrunnner and executive producer. Jonathan Krisel, Andrew Singer, Ian Maxtone-Graham and Lorne Michaels also executive produce.


Man Seeking Woman had another great season this year and continues to offer one of the smartest and funniest takes on dating and relationships on TV today,” said Presidents of Original Programming for FX Networks and FX Productions Nick Grad. “We are excited to move forward on a third season of Man Seeking Woman with Simon, Jonathan, Andrew, Ian and Lorne, and thank Jay, Eric and Britt for keeping the show so enjoyable.”

The Plot: Man Seeking Woman follows “Josh Greenberg” (Jay Baruchel) as he soldiers through the life-and-death stakes of dating. The series also stars Eric Andre (The Eric Andre Show) as “Mike,” Josh’s confident and daring best friend; and Britt Lower (Sisters) as “Liz,” Josh’s intimidating older sister.
