FX’s Original Series Justified Already a Lock To Be Renewed
FX’s original drama Justified (formerly known as Lawman) premieres this Tuesday at 10pm. Based on a popular character, Ralylan Givens, from an Elmore Leonardshort story, the show focuses on U.S. Marshal in Kentucky payed by Timothy Olyphant.
I didn’t see a screener, so I can’t give this the rave review that many are giving it. But it doesn’t matter. Regardless, I’ll predict now, before the show even airs its premiere, and before I’ve seen it or the ratings that there is absolutely no chance that it won’t be renewed.
FX doesn’t have that many one hour scripted dramas. It has my favorite show, Sons of Anarchy, and that’s coming back. There’s Damages which is probably not coming back unless an Emmy or two really do turn ratings lemons into lemonade. Nip Tuck is already finished and FX has already announced Rescue Me will end in 2011.
