Mike Baxter is a happily married father of three daughters who finds himself the odd man out as he tries to maintain his manliness in a home surrounded by women. Mike tries to escape all the female drama at home in the warm, manly embrace of his job at the Outdoor Man store, a sporting goods emporium where he is marketing director. He also revels in his Outdoor Man vlog, which he uses as a pulpit for his opinions -- which often have nothing to do with the store's merchandise. When he's supposed to be selling mountain bikes or kayaks, he somehow ends up spouting off about the environment, health care, international politics or any other topic occupying his mind.

Douglas M I really enjoy this series and rewatch episodes often to cheer me up and remind me how important life is, how special families are, and that when the chips are down, you fight for what you believe in, ever your country and beyond. When the show was cancelled, I was really sad. With the reboot, I was really pumped. The first reboot season took some time for the revised cast to gel. Not that I’m getting the 2nd and 3rd seasons of the reboot, the cast and writers have blossomed and rocking the last episodes of this wonderful series. I hope many, many more people can enjoyed the this hilarious and heartwarming twist on life as I see it from my Toronto point of view. Well done to all the cast, writers, and crew! 🙏👏❤️ Rated 5 out of 5 stars 04/12/25 Full Review Ed R A terrible ending to a once great show. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 03/15/25 Full Review N s Definitely lost something following the reboot, the comedy magic was gone. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 04/14/23 Full Review ahmad m An abrupt and rather emotional ending, delivered greatly with full absolution. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/30/23 Full Review Audience Member this show is one the last great shows tired of rottne tomatoes manipulating ratings Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review Audience Member Loved LMS but the new Mandy and Jen are just to hard to watch. This has jumped the shark. New Mandy couldn't produce like the old Mandy. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review Read all reviews
