Season three of TV Land’s popular comedy series Younger has just begun shooting in New York and today the network announced they’ve given the show a 12 episode season four order. Season two increased the show’s viewership by more than 67% among adults and the comedy’s social media presence nearly doubled.
Darren Star created, executive produces, and is a writer on the series, with Dottie Zicklin and Eric Zicklin also writing and on board as executive producers. The cast of Younger includes Sutton Foster, Hilary Duff, Debi Mazar, Miriam Shor, Nico Tortorella, Peter Hermann and Molly Bernard. Season three is set to premiere on September 28, 2016 at 10pm ET/PT.
“The show is a force in and of itself, so it’s a no-brainer to renew it again,” said Keith Cox, Executive Vice President of Development and Original Programming. “Critics and fans love it, and I know Darren and the entire cast and crew behind Younger will continue to deliver at the top of their game.”
The Plot: Younger follows Liza (Foster), a 40-year old woman who pretends to be 26 in order to get a job in the highly competitive world of publishing – and succeeds. Now working under the prickly Diana (Shor), Liza has to figure out how to balance her real life with best friend Maggie (Mazar), and her “pretend” life with her new crew – friend/coworker Kelsey (Duff) and fashion publicist Lauren (Bernard). At the end of season two, Liza’s secret took a tragic turn when Kelsey’s fiancé Thad (Dan Amboyer) was killed in an accident right after he discovered her lie, and Liza’s love life is in disarray as she tries to choose between on-again/off-again boyfriend Josh (Nico Tortorella) and her boss Charles (Peter Hermann), with whom she has an undeniable connection.
