Development
TV Land announced the seventh season on July 24, 2019, making it the longest running original series in the network's history. In late 2020, series creator Darren Star was reached and announced that he was "unofficially planning [Season 7] as a final season." A spin-off series revolving on Liza's younger co-worker Kelsey Peters is in development, though it is unsure if the show will be produced by TV Land. The season will consist of 12 episodes, like the previous six. The series moved from TV Land to Paramount+ with the seventh and final season, which premiered on April 15, 2021, with the first four episodes available immediately and the rest debuting on a weekly basis. However, TV Land will afterwards show the final season starting with the first two episode on July 7, 2021 and a new episode every Wednesday thereafter.

Casting
The season stars Sutton Foster, Debi Mazar, Nico Tortorella, Hilary Duff, Molly Bernard, and Peter Hermann, reprising the roles from previous seasons. In January 2021, Tessa Albertson announced on Twitter that she had filmed her last scenes in the series, confirming her role as Liza's daughter, Caitlin Miller, in the seventh season. In March 2021, Miriam Shor, who portrays Diana Trout, and Charles Michael Davis, who portrays Zane Anderson, were demoted to the recurring cast from their main roles in all the previous seasons and the fifth and sixth seasons, respectively. In April 2021, Janeane Garofalo was cast in a recurring role for the final season.

Filming
Filming was initially halted due to the COVID-19 pandemic, and was originally expected to begin in March 2020; however it began with only a small delay in mid-October 2020. Filming concluded after four months in mid-February 2021. After Duff finished filming her scenes for the entire series, Mazar posted a short tribute on Twitter about her, congratulating her for filming the season while being pregnant.
