Tim Allen's hit sitcom "Last Man Standing" may be revived on Fox in the upcoming 2018-2019 TV season following its controversial cancellation from ABC.

According to TVLine, Allen has signed a deal with Fox for a potential season 7 of the canceled show and talks are still ongoing to bring back the original cast members.

Allen, who plays politically-conservative patriarch Mike Baxter, initially hinted at the show's return in a social media post on Friday.

"They heard all your voices people!! LMS just might be a reality. Keep it up. Who wants more #LastManStanding?" he wrote on Twitter.

ABC had drawn criticisms over the cancellation in May 2016, with some speculating that the hit show was taken off air because of Allen's right-wing beliefs.

Allen suggested in an interview that his political beliefs may have been a factor in the decision to discontinue the sitcom despite its high ratings.

"There's nothing more dangerous, especially in this climate, than a funny, likable conservative," he said in an interview with Norm MacDonald.

ABC's top executive, Channing Dungey, refuted the allegations, saying the network canceled the hit series as part of its "decision not to continue with comedies on Friday."

According to Deadline, Allen's sitcom was the second most-watched comedy show on ABC, averaging at 8.1 million viewers in its final season. Overall, it was ranked as the third-most watched show on the network, just behind Grey's Anatomy and Modern Family.

Cable net CMT went into talks with parent company 20th Century Fox TV in an attempt to rescue the show, but the discussions reportedly broke down over financial disagreements.

In August, Allen thanked his fans for supporting efforts to revive the sitcom. "The support from all the fans to bring back 'Last Man Standing' is truly overwhelming to me and so appreciated," he told Fox News at the time.

"I, along with the talented writers, wonderful crew and terrific actors, would definitely entertain the idea of bringing the show back as there is so much gas left in the tank, more to be said, and laughs to be had," he added.

According to TVLine, 20th Century Fox reconsidered reviving Allen's sitcom following the recent success of the "Roseanne" revival on ABC.

Deadline reported in March that "Roseanne," which features a protagonist who supports Donald Trump, garnered 18.2 million total viewers during its premiere, surpassing all expectations.
