FX is filling out its summer schedule, handing out time slots for returning series “Sex&Drugs&Rock&Roll” and “Tyrant.”
“Sex&Drugs,” the comedy series starring Denis Leary as the lead singer of a legendary early 90s New York band, will return to Thursday nights when it kicks off its second season on June 30. “Tyrant,” the drama executive produced by Howard Gordon, debuts its third season on Wednesday, July 6, after airing on Tuesday nights during its first two seasons. Both shows will air at 10 p.m.
Last year, “Tyrant” averaged a solid 2.47 million viewers, including 1.05 million adults 18-49, in Nielsen’s “live plus-7” estimates. The more modestly rated “Sex&Drugs&Rock&Roll” averaged 1.14 million viewers, including 614,000 in the demo.
