The Viacom-owned cable network has renewed critical darling Younger and Teachers for additional seasons, The Hollywood Reporter has learned.
Sutton Foster starrer Younger will return for its fifth season, scoring an early renewal ahead of the fourth run's June 28 debut. The 12-episode season will return in 2018.
Teachers, about a group of elementary school teachers, is based on the web series from the Katydids — Caitlin Barlow, Katy Colloton, Cate Freedman, Kate Lambert, Katie O’Brien and Kathryn Renée Thomas. The third-season pickup will be for another 20-episode season and arrives as the back half of season two is poised to return to the cabler.
"We’re absolutely thrilled to be bringing back Younger and Teachers for more seasons and double down on our dedication to creating smart, funny, honest and compelling originals,” new TV Land GM Frank Tanki said.
