FX Renews Donald Glover’s Comedy ‘Atlanta’ For A Second Season
‘Atlanta’ will be back for another season after just 3 episodes!!!
Donald Glover’s new comedy ‘Atlanta’ is a certified hit for FX according to the latest press release from the network. The comedy has now been renewed for a second season after the record-breaking ratings reports IndieWire:
FX has handed out second season renewals to “Atlanta” and “Better Things,” both of which will return next year with ten more episodes.
Donald Glover is executive producer and star of “Atlanta,” playing aspiring hip-hop manager Earn (who’s really just trying to support his toddler), while Pamela Adlon is executive producer and star of “Better Things,” playing working actress Sam (who’s also trying to support her three daughters).
“Atlanta” premiered to strong numbers, giving FX the most-watched basic cable primetime scripted comedy premiere in three years (among adults 18-49, after three days of “Live+3” time-shifted viewing). And the audience is growing: “Atlanta’s” third episode attracted 1.9 million viewers in Live+3, up from the previous week’s 1.6 million.
Congrats to Donald and the entire cast/crew of the critically acclaimed series. Check out tonight’s next episode of ‘Atlanta’ at 10 PM on FX!
