FOX announced today that it has renewed innovative new sitcom
The Last Man on Earth for a second season, consisting of 13 episodes. The Will Forte sitcom about the last surviving people on Earth after a disease wipes out everyone was successful in its marketing and launched with a surprising 2.4 demo in early March. Though it has dropped since then, it has solid DVR ratings and critical buzz. I didn't think this show would do much of anything, I greatly underestimated its potential so this has been a surprise for me.
FOX has been slowly announcing renewals for its shows. Shows not renewed yet are
American Idol, Backstrom, Bones, Family Guy, The Following, Hell's Kitchen, The Mindy Project, Weird Loners, and
World's Funniest Fails. Of those shows, sure renewals are
Bones (if they can get the leads to re-sign),
Idol, Family Guy, and
Hell's Kitchen. On the bubble are
Mindy, World's Funniest Fails,
and
The Following.
Backstrom and
Weird Loners are as good as gone.
