![]() ![]() There to welcome her is none other than Kyle and Mandy. In some definitively good news, fans can look forward to seeing Jen, who appears in Season 9’s promotional stills for the episode entitled “Jen Again.” It airs on January 21. Will Kyle and Ryan’s podcast go viral, leading them to a long-term team-up and lots of success? I hope so. However, the three-year time-jump will give fans a chance to see more about where the Baxters’ lives take them. It is more commonplace for shows like “Vikings” with a lot of historical ground to cover. It is unusual for a sitcom to take such a bold time-jumping swing, though. “Last Man Standing” is a great show (on the level of “Full House”), and I trust its judgment. Perhaps, that was the plan, and it changed? Maybe. The theorized goal being to avoid wearing out the new-baby storyline. Once Mandy and Kyle’s baby reveal happened, I thought the sitcom had purposefully avoided overdoing Kristin’s baby storyline. She and Ryan already had Boyd, who was born before the Tim Allen-starrer began. Last season, “Last Man Standing” did not spend a bunch of time focused on Kristin’s pregnancy, seemingly because the first-time flutters were out of the way. I love the show, so Season 9 skipping this much interesting territory is surprising. It seems like it will get skipped, and yes, this fan is sad about it. How Mandy, of all people, would handle becoming a mother seemed like an interesting story for “Last Man Standing” to tell. ![]() That seems unlikely now.ĭoes all of this mean that Mandy’s pregnancy will be a blink-and-you-missed-it event? It seems so, and I am surprised. So, I was looking forward to seeing how she would evolve in Season 9. For the first six or so seasons of “Last Man Standing,” she was fairly self-centered, although her love for Kyle helped salve that some. Why? Because Mandy becoming a mom is huge. I am all for Mandy exploring life as a stay-at-home mom, but I will miss the storyline about her becoming a mom. Executive producer, Kevin Abbott, teased Mandy’s Season 9 plotline by telling TVLine: She has to grapple with how she feels about that in terms of identifying as somebody’s mother, as opposed to identifying as me She’s still going to be Mandy, but time will have changed her. Where will the fun, baby-related storylines be? I guess baby Mabel (you know who I am talking about “Mad About You” fans) ruined that for sitcoms? In related news, “Last Man Standing” will instead focus on Mandy becoming a stay-at-home mom. She is practically off to college! I kid (but only sort of). ![]() Bolstering that notion is TVLine reporting Mandy and Kyle’s 3-year-old daughter will figure into the premiere. That means Mandy and Kyle expecting their first child could be a plot point largely smoothed over in Season 9. ![]() However, “Last Man Standing” will make multiple time-jumps in its Season 9 premiere. Will there be time travel on the scale of Netflix’s “Dark”? Not quite. Wait, what? Yes, the Season 9 premiere’s official teaser reveals that multiple time jumps will find Mike and Vanessa with not one but two new grandchildren. #LAST MAN STANDING MANDY TV#Keep up with all of the TV dates in our midseason 2019 schedule.“Last Man Standing’s” official logline has provided a preview of what is coming in Season 9, and it seems like the show will be skipping Mandy and Kyle’s baby storyline.
