FX Renews THE LEAGUE; THE KILLING, TREME Get Premiere Dates

FX has announced it has renewed its comedy series "The League" for a third season, to premiere in the fall.

Additionally, AMC has set the premiere date for its new drama series "The Killing". The show launches on April 3, at 9 PM ET/PT.

Based on the successful Danish television series "Forbrydelsen," "The Killing" weaves together three distinct stories around a single murder, including the detectives assigned to the case and their suspects, the victim's grieving family, and the local politicians connected to the case. As "The Killing" unfolds, it becomes clear that there are no accidents; everyone has a secret, and while the characters think they have moved on, their past still lingers.

Shot on location in Vancouver, "The Killing" is anchored by a breakout cast, including Mireille Enos ("Big Love") as Sarah Linden, the lead homicide detective investigating the death of Rosie Larsen; Billy Campbell ("Once and Again") as Darren Richmond, Seattle's City Council President running for Mayor; Joel Kinnaman (Snabba Cash) as Stephen Holder, an ex-narc cop who joins the homicide division in the investigation to find Rosie's killer; Michelle Forbes ("True Blood") as Rosie's mother, Mitch; and Brent Sexton (W., In the Valley of Elah) as Rosie's father, Stan.


And then, HBO has set Sunday, April 24, 10/9c for the launch of its second season of post-Katrina drama "Treme".
