FX is taking you down South once more, as the cable network has renewed Donald Glover’s surreal dramedy “Atlanta” for a third season set to premiere in 2019. (No word on if Season 3 will have a modified title a la the sophomore installment’s moniker, “Robbin’ Season.”)
“‘Atlanta’ is phenomenal, achieving and exceeding what few television series have done,” Nick Grad said Thursday, while announcing the renewal with fellow president of original programming for FX Networks and FX Productions, Eric Schrier. “With ‘Atlanta Robbin’ Season,’ Donald and his collaborators elevated the series to even greater heights, building on the enormous success of their award-winning first season.
