What Season 3 of Last Man Standing

Mike Baxter is the marketing director of Outdoor Man, a sporting goods chain based in Denver. He lives with his wife Vanessa and their three daughters, which makes him the only man in the house. Until now, he has traveled the country nonstop to complete the store's catalog, but the company takes those trips away and assigns him to boost online sales through a blog. With the help of his middle daughter, Mandy, he tries to master a field he knows nothing about. At home, Kyle's chores, Boyd's bilingual school, Eve's driving lessons and Mandy's college life add tension to his daily routine. Mike firmly defends traditional values and clashes again and again with his family's decisions.
