FXx to Cancel “Man Seeking Woman” After Season 3
One of the most imaginative shows on television unfortunately will come to a close after the conclusion of its current season.
If you haven’t gotten into Simon Rich’s Man Seeking Woman, you can stream it on Hulu. We highly recommend to do so.
Just a friendly reminder that on FXx tonight:
Season 12 of It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia premieres at 10PM
Season 3 of Man Seeking Woman premieres right after at 10:30PM
Over two seasons, the conceit of Jay Baruchel and his wild, alternate realities born from the perils of relationships in Man Seeking Woman have gelled into something charming, clever, and intriguing.
Season 3 looks like it’ll keep the show headed in that direction.
Look for the season premiere on FXx on Wednesday, January 4th.
If it was never clear to you before how desperate a situation may be when sending out the very suggestive text message “You up?” to someone that you’re not seeing/dating, Man Seeking Woman hits the point home perfectly.
You might not know it, but the time in many people’s lives where they stop drinking the beer that’s the cheapest has way more pomp and circumstance than you can realize.
Watch Josh from Man Seeking Woman get honored for this special occasion.
Man Seeking Woman takes the idea that you would need grit like some hardened detective on a police procedural in order to confidently ask someone out, in person no less, and makes into a reality, complete with all the police procedural trappings.
The conceit of FXx’s Man Seeking Woman is that all the metaphors that people compare every aspect of love, dating, marriage, relationships, etc. actually come to life making for some pretty trippy scenes that really resonate with folks.
Season 2, while it has a new arc with the main character Josh, is making good on that dynamic, which will include a horny Santa.
Watch all of this in the red band trailer here, then look for the premiere on FXx on Wed. Jan. 6th.
FXx’s latest series Man Seeking Woman takes the nightmarish parts of dating literally. All the emotionally horrific things that star Jay Baruchel goes through, accompanied by Eric Andre, are then actualized into something more terrifying, which is pretty fun to watch.
The first full trailer just got released and you can watch it here.
After that, you can catch the premiere of Man Seeking Woman on Wed. Jan. 14th 10:30PM on FXx.

Man Seeking Woman Starring Jay Baruchel Gets Series Order at FXx
FXx finally gets a new comedy series following the last few series pick ups of FX including Sex&Drugs&Rock&Roll. Jay Baruchel will star in this series that extolls the horrors of dating based on the book The Last Girlfriend on Earth by Simon Rich.
Given the subject matter, we wonder if FX and FXx will have a crossover episode with You’re The Worst or Married.
Eric Andre Cast in Jay Baruchel FX/FXx Pilot Man Seeking Woman
Eric Andre will possibly get back to simultaneously not only being on two shows, but also being two way different personalities on either show with being cast in FX/FXx pilot Man Seeking Woman starring Jay Baruchel. When Don’t Trust the B in Apt. 23 was on the air, Eric was mild mannered compared to his anti talk show host character on The Eric Andre Show.
With this FXx pilot though, as a “cocky best friend”, Eric will be playing slightly closer to the Eric-Andre-Show Eric.
Cameron Crowe’s Romantic Comedy To Have Jay Baruchel, Danny McBride, and More
By now, ensemble cast romantic comedies should be a little bit of a red flag, but with Cameron Crowe attached as well as rounding a cast of Jay Baruchel, Bradley Cooper, Rachel McAdams, Alec Baldwin, Emma Stone, and Danny McBride should make for something noteworthy.
Jay Baruchel Producing Semi-Autobiographical Comedy at ABC
ABC has enlisted Jay Baruchel and a sitcom based on his life, which, based on the description, seems like what would happen in This Is The End if Jay left Seth Rogen and went back home to avoid Hollywood (also without the end of days happening).
We’re really curious to see whether this will end up being a single or multi-camera sitcom, especially for how family oriented the series could be.
