Announced today, FX has renewed Denis Leary’s rock comedy Sex&Drugs&Rock&Roll for a second season.
Looks like Denis will get to his flowing rocker locks for another year.
10PM Sex&Drugs&Rock&Roll series premiere
10:30PM Married season 2 premiere
A new hour comedy block is back at FX with a new Denis Leary series, Sex&Drugs&Rock&Roll where rather than the firetruck and fire house that he used to man on Rescue Me, he now takes the stage as a band’s embattled front man donned in leather and big hair.
Following that series premiere, Married, one of FX’s three comedies that chronicle different stages of life/relationships (the other ones being You’re The Worst and Louie) returns for its second season.
Like we said above, catch both tonight.
FX’s latest comedy series Sex&Drugs&Rock&Roll is just around the corner following a dysfunctional band getting back together at the wishes of the lead singer’s daughter.
Leading up to the premiere, they’ve put together a faux documentary telling the story of their band, The Heathens and why rock stardom just escaped their grasp because of Denis Leary’s character, Johnny Rock.
Watch parts one, two, three, and four, then check out the premiere on July 16th at 10PM on FX.
You got a preview of his flowing mane on The Daily Show over a year ago and now you get to see it action.
Denis Leary is an aging rocker in his new series Sex&Drugs&Rock&Roll, but still very much in the wheelhouse of the Denis Leary we’ve come to know through stand-up, Rescue Me, and otherwise.
You can get your first look of the show in these two clips to show you what we’re talking about.
Sex&Drugs&Rock&Roll doesn’t premiere until Thurs. July 16th on FX, so we’re sure a full length trailer is on the way soon.
(via Deadline)
Louis C.K.: Live From The Comedy Store premieres May 28th and “Sex&Drugs&Rock&Roll” and season 2 of “Married” premiere July 16th.
FX gets the first TV dibs on Louis C.K.’s latest special “Live at The Comedy Store” that will make its TV debut almost two months after the season 5 premiere of Louie.
Following that, Denis Leary’s new comedy and hair in Sex&Drugs&Rock&Roll and the second season of Married will round out FX’s comedy schedule for a while.
Between this, Netflix’s upcoming comedy, Veep and Silicon Valley returning, etc., the only time you might have freed up is those few months between Letterman leaving The Late Show and Colbert taking over.
FX Orders Denis Leary’s ‘Sex&Drugs&Rock&Roll’ To Series
Denis Leary has returned to FX after a hit run with Rescue Me with his rock comedy series Sex&Drugs&Rock&Roll. Leary plays Johnny Rock who is trying to get his life back together as well as reunite the band, which could be fun to watch with Leary as a former rock star.
We’re curious to see if FX or FXx will ultimately air this come next year. We’re guessing FX.
