Just ahead of its fifth season premiere, TV Land's dramedy series Younger has been renewed for a sixth season, the network said Mondayty (June 4).
The series, which stars Sutton Foster, Hilary Duff, Debi Mazar, Miriam Shor, Nico Tortorella, Peter Hermann, Molly Bernard and Charles Michael Davis, returns for its fifth season Tuesday night (June 5), according to the network.
The series, in which Foster plays Liza Miller -- a 40-something woman who lies about her age in order to get a job in the highly competitive world of publishing -- is coming off its most watched season in series history, finishing season four as the top-rated cable sitcom with women 18-49 and women 25-54, according to TV Land.
“Younger exemplifies romantic comedy at its best and each season the show hits new creative and ratings heights,” said Kevin Kay, president, TV Land, CMT and Paramount Network in a statement. “We are honored to continue to work with the brilliant Darren Star and this amazing cast, led by the multi-talented Sutton Foster. The new season is outstanding and we are thrilled for what’s to come for these beloved characters.”
Younger is created, executive produced and written by Darren Star, with Tony Hernandez, Dottie Zicklin and Eric Zicklin serving as executive producers and writers on the series, said TV Land.
