TV Land has renewed its comedy series Younger for a fourth season in advance of its third season debut this September, the network said Tuesday.

The Darren Star-produced series --which stars Sutton Foster as a 40-year old woman who pretends to be 26 in order to get a competitive publishing job -- will debut its third season on Sept. 28, according to the network.

The series also stars Hilary Duff, Debi Mazar, Miriam Shor, Nico Tortorella, Peter Hermann and Molly Bernard.

“The show is a force in and of itself, so it’s a no-brainer to renew it again,” said Keith Cox, Executive Vice President of Development and Original Programming for the network in a statement. “Critics and fans love it, and I know Darren and the entire cast and crew behind ‘Younger’ will continue to deliver at the top of their game.”
