Another cable drama ending! First HBO’s Boardwalk Empire, then The Newsroom, and now FX has confirmed the rumors: Justified will indeed end after next season.

FX Networks CEO John Landgraf made it official at the Television Critics Association press tour in Pasadena on Tuesday. The executive portrayed the decision as one made by the showrunner Graham Yost and star Timothy Olyphant. “We talked about it a year ago and they felt that the arc of the show and what they had to say would be served by six seasons instead of seven and I regretfully accepted their decision,” he said. »

HBO is ending Aaron Sorkin’s acclaimed drama series The Newsroom after the upcoming third season, the cable channel announced Monday.

“The Newsroom is classic Aaron Sorkin – smart, riveting and thought-provoking,” said HBO programming president Michael Lombardo. “I’m sure this farewell season will be one to remember.”

The surprise announcement will conclude the journalism drama, which is set at a fictional cable news network and stars Jeff Daniels, who won an Emmy for his role. The third and last season will premiere this fall. The announcement marks the second HBO drama series to get an end »

"Ichabod is the hardest part I've played," Tom Mison, star of the freshman fantasy-drama "Sleepy Hollow," airing Mondays on FOX, tells Zap2it. "There's so much that we need to balance with him. To slightly veer in any one direction a little too much, and it will collapse."

"Sleepy Hollow" can be described as a combination of author Washington Irving (in particular, his stories "The Legend of Sleepy Hollow" and "Rip Van Winkle"), the film "National Treasure"and the biblical book of Revelation.

Mison's Ichabod Crane was a spy for Gen. George Washington during the Revolutionary War, when he beheaded the Hessian Horseman and apparently perished.

Savor your time with Raylan Givens while you can, "Justified" fans, because he may not be around after 2015.

FX president Nick Grad says "the plan right now" is to end the series, which had its fifth-season premiere Tuesday night (Jan. 7), after Season 6. That would be in keeping with FX's usual m.o. of having its successful dramas run six to eight seasons.

Since 2005, Bob Saget has voiced the older, wiser version of Josh Radnor's Ted Mosby on "How I Met Your Mother."

And now that the beloved CBS series is coming to an end, Saget wants to know: Will he ever get any credit?

The "Full House" actor took to Twitter on Wednesady (Jan. 8) to ask Radnor this very question.

Sherlock series three may be ending, but series four and five are on their way...

Fret not, those of you worrying about Sherlock's imminent disappearance from Sunday nights (oh, series three, we hardly knew you!), because Sherlock is confirmed to be returning.

We've known series four was a sure thing for some time now, but it's reassuring to hear it straight from the horse's mouth. By horse, we mean Sue Vertue of course, the wonderful producer who channels the show's collective talents and actually makes it happen.
