FX Orders Second Season of "The League"

Has FX finally found its companion for It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia ? All signs point to yes. FX has renewed freshman comedy The League for a second season, picking up the series for an expanded order of thirteen episodes. The announcement comes as The League wraps its first season tomorrow night. Season Two of The League , which is produced by FX Productions, is expected to launch in late summer 2010. (That's also when Season Six of It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia is also due to return. Hmmm...) "We’ve been very pleased with the creative and ratings trajectory of The League and believe it’s an excellent fit with our comedy brand,” said Nick Grad, Executive Vice President of Original Programming, FX Networks, in a statement. “Jackie and Jeff Schaffer are incredibly talented producers and the ensemble cast is fantastic. The performance of the show this season is reminiscent of Sunny in its first season.” The full press release from FX can be found below. FX
