TV Land’s popular comedy series, “Younger,” starring Hilary Duff, has made its way to Netflix for streaming and is currently trending. The show, which originally aired from 2015-2021, concluded with its seventh season. In a unique move, season 7 of “Younger” was first released on Paramount+ and Hulu before airing on TV Land.
The show follows the story of Liza Miller, played by Sutton Foster, a divorced single mom who faces challenges rejoining the workforce in her 40s. To navigate this, Liza pretends to be 26 years old to secure a job. Garnering critical acclaim, “Younger” boasts an impressive 97% critic score on Rotten Tomatoes and a 76% audience score.
Creator Darren Star had planned season 7 to be the final installment even before the renewal was confirmed, signaling a deliberate conclusion to the beloved series. The decision to end the show was influenced by various factors, including Star’s focus on his Netflix series, “Emily in Paris,” and the career shifts of key cast members like Hilary Duff and Sutton Foster.
Season 7 marked a fitting conclusion to the show’s storyline, with the major plot arcs coming to a satisfying resolution. Additionally, the transition of “Younger” from TV Land to streaming services like Paramount+ and Hulu reflects a strategic move by the media company Paramount Global to restructure its offerings.
While a rumored spin-off show focused on Duff’s character, Kelsey Peters, never materialized, discussions about a potential revival or movie adaptation of “Younger” have surfaced. Cast members like Nico Tortorella express interest in revisiting the story in the future, hinting at the possibility of further adventures for the characters.
Despite the intentional end of the series with season 7, the future of “Younger” remains open to exciting possibilities. With no confirmed projects announced, fans can look forward to potential revivals or spin-offs that may continue the legacy of this beloved TV Land comedy.
